Decision Quotes
As per a subscriber request, here’s a few good quotes about decision.
1) Quick decisions are unsafe decisions. -Sophocles
2) The man who insists upon seeing with perfect clearness before he decides, never decides. Accept life, and you cannot accept regret. -Henri Frederic Amiel
3) When, against one’s will, one is high pressured into making a hurried decision, the best answer is always No, because No is more easily changed to Yes, than Yes is changed to No. -Charles E. Nielson
4) Nothing can be more destructive to vigor of action than protracted, anxious fluctuation, through resolutions adopted, rejected, resumed, and suspended, and nothing causes a greater expense of feeling. A man without decision can never be said to belong to himself; he is as a wave of the sea, or a feather in the air which every breeze blows about as it listeth. -John Foster
5) The percentage of mistakes in quick decisions is no greater than in long-drawn-out vacillations, and the effect of decisiveness itself makes things go and creates confidence. -Anne O’Hare McCormick
6) I have to be wrong a certain number of times in order to be right a certain number of times. However, in order to be either, I must first make a decision. -Frank N. Giampietro
7) Decision is a sharp knife that cuts clean and straight; indecision, a dull one that hacks and tears and leaves ragged edges behind it. -Gordon Graham
8) I hate to see things done by halves. If it be right, do it boldly; if it be wrong leave it undone. -Gilpin

This one is good guidance:
3) When, against one’s will, one is high pressured into making a hurried decision, the best answer is always No, because No is more easily changed to Yes, than Yes is changed to No. -Charles E. Nielson
We have the right to say NO, and if we have a hint of uncertainty, we will certainly regret it. I’ve learned that in my life full of decisions, and they come back to bite you when you hurriedly say yes to things.

Some great quotes here, Shawn! I found #6 to be particularly apt because it addresses the wasteful practice of protracted indecision. We’ll never know the outcome of a decision without first making the decision to act.
I have to be wrong a certain number of times in order to be right a certain number of times. However, in order to be either, I must first make a decision. -Frank N. Giampietro

DECISION QUOTES are very good, I like them all and I will use them for my decision and I will think and consider everything before making decision every time.

Shawn, this set of quotes is an absolute home run. Well timed for me personally but are endlessly valuable in worth. Anne O’Hare McCormick’s observation on the subject matches what I have learned over time. “The percentage of mistakes in quick decisions is no greater than in long-drawn-out vacillations, and the effect of decisiveness itself makes things go and creates confidence.”
Take a moment to think things through. Get as many facts as you can. But then decide. If you cannot see clearly enough to say yes. Say no. I liked the comment. It is easier to change a no to yes than a yes to no.
Great topic!
