Some decisions become worse simply because nobody is willing to make them.

Some choices are not hard because the options are close. They are hard because someone has to accept responsibility for them, and everyone in the room would rather the decision belonged to somebody else. The delay itself then damages the options, so the eventual choice is made from a worse position than the original one.

If something has been sitting unresolved, ask whether the problem is genuine uncertainty or unclaimed ownership. If it is the second, claim it. A merely adequate decision made now often beats a better one made after the good options have expired.
