About the Holiday

It's probably not a coincidence that Make Up Your Mind Day falls on New Years Eve. All year you have been putting off making decisions. Start the new year with a clean slate and make up your mind on any decisions that you've been pushing off.

In order to make up your mind you must be decisive. Merriam-Webster.com's definition of decisive is "able to make choices quickly and confidently". Some popular quotes about indecision include:

  • There is no more miserable human being than one in whom nothing is habitual but indecision. William James
  • Indecision is debilitating; it feeds upon itself; it is, one might almost say, habit-forming. H. A. Hopf
  • Indecision and delays are the parents of failure. George Canning
