I've never been good at making decisions, and for most of my life, have let other people make them for me. On my own, I have to ponder and reflect, fret, and eventually come to a decision. On simple things, like my home improvements, I look at it as a problem-solving venture and will give myself time to think about it for sometimes weeks, even coming to resolutions in dreams! As for big things, like in relationships, I've waited till the s--t hits the fan and had to make a decision or accept the outcome that way.
On a personal note, after fretting for weeks about over extending myself this fall, I just dropped one of my grad classes, though it means I'll not get finished now till spring semester. I feel good about this decision, since I've learned my limitations.
I even have trouble deciding to go to the grocery store!
