Best Answer

Hamlet delays his desicions because he is simply an indescisive person. Hamlet is trying to choose between his education, what he knows, and the warlike royal traditions, the evil aspects of avenging his father. He is obviously depressed and doesnt like the idea of murdering King Claudius, because as a Christian, murder is morally wrong. He wants to make sure Claudius is the right man to be punished and the preparations for the play within the play are even more delayed because of hamlets Antic disposition.
