Hey guys today I'd like to talk about obsessions, being excited about something, and the fine line between the two. I honestly have no idea where the line is located or even where it starts to get blurry. I'm not usually the kind of person that gets too over excited about things, but recently I have been working on my car and it's constantly on my brain. I do not know if I am obsessed or if I am just really excited about it for some reason.
Being obsessed can hurt your life and since I have trouble knowing whether I am or not I usually live by a few guidelines:
If you are having trouble doing anything that is not related to the thing you are excited about then you should probably take a break from it. Sometimes this does not always work though. If you are in the middle of something (in my case modifying my car) and you leave it unfinished to do something else it will eat at you until it is complete. In that case make sure you get to a good stopping point before you decide to get away from it so your brain can continue to function.
If ever there is an awkward silence you bring up the thing you can't get off your mind. If this happens which I know for me it does you have two choices (that I know of) to solve this. 1) just keep it to yourself until the subject is brought up. If you talk about it every time you can the people you are talking to will stop listening to you all together because they are done hearing about it but are too polite to tell you. 2) If you cannot keep it to yourself then keep telling different people. If you are that excited about it and need to talk about it tell different people. If you have fresh ears chances are they will be willing to hear about it, and it will also satisfy your need to talk about it because you have told a countless amount of people.
That's all for now I can't focus; gotta finish my car...
PS If ever there is a random link and it doesn't seem to make sense in my posts it is just there because I think it is fun/funny/awesome.
