Sometimes you’re not sure about what you want to eat on a Friday night. It’s not that you don’t have options, but that there is nothing definitive in your mind. It’s kind of up in the air since there is no urgent need to make a decision.
This can be a good thing or a bad thing depending on the situation and context. It’s fine to not be sure with big decisions, since you’ll need to consider them carefully. But it’s not good to be unsure when the moment requires a decision, such as when you’re driving and you have to decide whether to go somewhere or not.
The only way around this is to know what you like or don’t like in many situations. Not in terms of specifics, but in general terms.
When you’re thinking about what to eat for dinner, it’s good to have a general idea of what kinds of food you like, and whether you want to dine out or dine in. When deciding on what movie or TV show to watch, it’s good to know what types of movies or shows you like, and which ones you don’t. This will save a lot of time.
Of course, not all decisions need to be made in a blink of an eye. Some shouldn’t be made in a split second, especially if it’s a major decision. But if you spend too much time making a decision, you might end up not making a decision at all–which is a decision.
