We could say that your mind and body are in the known—the same predictable future based on what you did in the same familiar past—and in that known, certain future there’s no room for the unknown. In fact, if something new happened, if something unknown were to unfold in your life at that moment to change the same predictable timeline of your day, you’d probably be annoyed at the disruption of your routine. You’d likely consider it troublesome, problematic, and downright inconvenient. You might say, “Can you come back tomorrow? This is not the right time.”
