to pause and reassess a situation
сделать паузу и переоценить ситуацию (sdelat' pauzu i pereotsenit' situatsiyu)
"Sometimes you need to take a step back to see the bigger picture."
"Иногда нужно сделать шаг назад, чтобы увидеть полную картину." (Inogda nuzhno sdelat' shag nazad, chtoby uvidet' polnuyu kartinu.)
I agree with your idea or opinion
a short period when one has a chance to act effectively
to waste time on a topic that has already been resolved
to make someone very happy
not very intelligent; not a genius
to become worse or decline in health
