Quotes to ponder:
"Being a workaholic isn’t always bad though. You are probably a good worker and you just want to succeed in life."
"You need to find a way to put fun things in your schedule because that may be the only way you let yourself do them!"
"Most people are not good at multi-tasking and all it means for most people is that you are spending extra time doing something when you shouldn’t."
