I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'usually' is the definition.
(by the usual traditions)

'no it i hurry up to get helper's support' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'no' could be 'o' (resembles 0 - 'no' can mean 'zero') and 'o' is found in the answer.
'it' could be 't' (abbreviation. e.g. in 'tis) and 't' is located in the answer.
'i' could be 'a' and 'a' is present in the answer.
'support' could be 'ally' (I've seen this before) and 'ally' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'having' is the link.
