There's so many choices you could take, and the fewer you take the better, you just have to make sure you take the best choices. Mulling things over is good. Time spent on making decisions is time well spent, you could do it quicker but only with a dartboard. Maybe instead of spending an hour on the question and a year on the answer, spend a year on the question and the answer will come in an hour. As long as there's trust and a work ethic on both sides, it's very virtuous.
