About This Quote
If you are obsessing about a situation, you are going over and over the same thing over and over again. If you are just sitting there doing nothing, then you have no problems. The only problem is that people who do this tend to think they have a point to prove. When a person sits there and perforates a post-it note with a push-pin, he is probably not doing anything.
