QUIZ: How Decisive Are You?
Let’s find out. Right now.
THERE ARE TIMES in life when it pays to be decisive, to be able to make snap decisions at a moment’s notice. In life and death situations, for example, it’s nice to be with someone who knows what they’re doing.
But at other times… well, being a little more laid-back about things doesn’t hurt at all.
We all fall somewhere on the decisiveness spectrum – and your decisiveness can definitely change depending on the circumstance.
So… how decisive are you?
Let’s find out.

I always get the waiter's opinion before making a decision
Never, I always know exactly what I want
Once...no, twice... I need to think again
2.How long does it take you to get dressed in the morning?
A little while - depends on how I'm feeling that day
Not too long, I usually have a good idea what I want to wear
Ages - I change outfits five times easily
Two minutes - I have everything picked out already
3.You need new clothes for work - what do you do?
Do a little research online, pick out something nice, get it delivered
Research a few shops online, go in and try it on
Go to a shop I like, pick something, buy it. Job done
Go to a shop I like, choose, leave, go back, try it on again. Think about it.
4.You're watching TV - do you channel hop?
Nope, I know exactly what I want to watch
Sometimes, during the ads
Definitely. Every ad break
Only to see what else is on. Really quickly (and frequently...)

Know exactly what you want?
Have to tell the barman to come back to you?

20 minutes - I have a plan and stick to it
A good hour - there's so much choice
8. How long does it take you to order coffee (or other hot drink)?
Well, with all the extras... a good minute
As long as it takes to say 'Coffee, please'
A normal amount of time...
Once they understand my half-cap, full-foam, extra syrup, extra hot venti order - no time at all
