Decisions are better made after sleeping.
خلفية ثقافية
In Serbia, this proverb is often used as a polite way to end a stressful meeting or conversation without reaching a conclusion, allowing everyone to save face. In Montenegro, where there is a cultural stereotype of being relaxed and avoiding unnecessary work, this phrase is used frequently to justify delaying tasks. In many Slavic fairy tales, the hero is given this advice by a magical helper (like Baba Yaga or a talking horse) to signal that a magical solution will appear at dawn. Serbian social media users often use this as a caption for 'reset' posts—showing a coffee cup in the morning after a night of venting about problems.
