NOT making any concrete decision. By the way, who is the decision maker?  Where are the thoughts stored?  In realty, Mind is the bundle of thoughts and if the thoughts are NOT in purity, harmony and unity, they cause Dilemma.  If two thoughts are arguing with each other, who is the third one who observes this?  Of course it is the Atma (Soul) and/or the Intellect (Buddhi)!  If the Soul (Atma) and/or the Intellect (Buddhi) become the decision maker then there would not be a problem at all.   One carries the types of thoughts depending upon the intense desires from past lives and keeps on entertaining them and never goes deeper enough to listen to the Soul (Atma) and/or Intellect (Buddhi).   IN order to listen to the Inner Voice i.e., the voice of the Soul (Atma) and/or Intellect (Buddhi), one must do the Impartial Introspection every day with the disciplines manner; even two minutes of practise daily would cleanse the Mind and thoughts.
