Indecisiveness and procrastination are joined at the hip. They’re twins. Where one is, the other is.
And delayed decision is different than indecisiveness
Delaying decision means you’re going to get new information in the next hour, day, week that will help you make a better decision.
Indecisiveness means you’re have all the information you’re going to have, but won’t decide.
Which leads to procrastination.
Which leads to indecisiveness.
This happens all the time with artists. Do you want this show? Are you going to sign that contract? Do you want to work with this agent? Are you going to write a song today?
The delay (hours, days weeks, years) that usually precedes these questions getting answered isn’t because you’re furiously gathering information to help you make a better decision.
It’s because you’re buddies with indecisiveness and procrastination.
Time to make up your mind and trade up for the next round of decision making.
