No, not your fourth eye. Have you ever heard of navel gazing?
If not, here are a couple of Urban Dictionary definitions:
1. navel-gazing
Engaging in self-absorbed behavior, often to the point of being narcissistic.
If she would stop navel-gazing, she would realize the light had turned green.
2. navel-gazing
Negative or excessive self-contemplation, often the focus is on you and not
others, when making a point or offering an opinion.
Or another definition from Merrian Webster online dictionary:
navelgaz·ing
noun \ˈnā-vəl-ˈgā-ziŋ\
Definition of NAVEL-GAZING
: useless or excessive self-contemplation
