What is the origin of the idiom "have a mind of one's own" and when to use it?

The origin of the idiom "have a mind of one's own" is rooted in the concept of individual agency and independent thinking. It reflects the fundamental human capacity to possess unique thoughts, perspectives, and preferences. The idiom emerged from the recognition that each person has their own distinct consciousness and the ability to make choices based on their own reasoning and judgment. It emphasizes the importance of autonomy and self-determination, suggesting that individuals should not be easily swayed or controlled by external influences. It is commonly used in discussions about personal autonomy, individuality, and free will.

Idiom
Informal

to refuse to change one's opinions, behaviors, habits, etc.

What is the origin of the idiom "set in one's ways" and when to use it?

The origin of the idiom "set in one's ways" can be traced back to the early 19th century. The term "set" in this context refers to becoming fixed or firmly established in a particular pattern or behavior. The phrase likely evolved from the idea of setting or hardening materials, such as clay or cement, which become rigid and unyielding once they have solidified. It is often employed when discussing someone's behavior, attitudes, or preferences that have become fixed and unyielding over time.
