Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold. But other times it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow.

About This Quote

Sometimes, it’s not the pot of gold that you want that matters. Sometimes it’s the process of working towards your dreams that is the most important thing. If you don’t take time off to do things that really interest you, then you’re going to miss out on so much. You might not be able to get as much done as you could if you took time off and did something else every now and then. But, other times, it’s essential to take time off and make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow.
