About this Quote

This quote by Max Lerner speaks with the importance of requiring time to show and prioritize. When we make the effort to depend on bed late, we can take an action back and examine what is genuinely essential and what is insignificant. We can then make decisions based on what is truly pushing and important, rather than being overwhelmed by the sheer amount of jobs and obligations that we have. This quote motivates us to put in the time to reflect and prioritize, so that we can make decisions that are based on what is genuinely important and necessary. Making the effort to lie in bed late can assist us to distinguish between first things and trivia, and make decisions that are based upon what is truly pushing and important.
