Thought: “The early worm gets eaten. Sometimes it pays to sleep in.”
The Sage enjoys taking old proverbs and giving them a shake, usually to see if anything amusing falls out. This thought reminds us that while ambition and early starts are often praised, there are times when being first simply makes you the main course.
It’s a playful reminder that wisdom isn’t always about rushing ahead. Sometimes it’s about pausing, taking your time, and letting someone else be the eager worm. After all, what good is punctuality if it only makes you breakfast for a passing bird?
The Sage insists that balance is key: ambition has its place, but so does a good lie-in. In fact, he claims most of his best ideas occur somewhere between his third snooze button and his first cup of tea.
