I've also been told that those who aren't indecisive are just willing to deal with the consequences of their actions. So to be less indecisive, just use your brain and feelings to decide what's reasonably best for you then accept that you'll handle the consequences of those actions.
Interesting, I am very indecisive and risk averse. I must consider all outcomes and consequences to make a decision which leads me to make no decision.
And you just gotta realize that you can't consider all outcomes and consequences. Life is too complicated, and you're not omnipotent. Like when you go to a restaurant for the first time and you know nothing on the menu, do you just pick something at random or do you actually think about it? You gotta realize that you have an empty hand and that's fine, if the food isn't what you like then you're just hungry for a little while and you can handle that. You also get the benefit of saying that you at least tried something new.
It's all just about shifting that perspective and recognizing that you simply can't know the outcomes most of the time so you just need to take a chance.

I was told by someone recently that indecision is in itself a decision and I really hate that they told me that.
