The worst kind of decision-making is to decide to delay a difficult decision until later or to pass it to someone else to have to make. You will never excel and be valued by your colleagues if you get into these habits of procrastination and passing responsibility to others.
“The most important decision you make is to be in a good mood.”
Voltaire (1694–1778) French writer, historian, and philosopher
