A: I'd like to go to France to see the Eiffel Tower, or Italy for the awesome food, or maybe Spain for the amazing beaches!

Make up your mind is a way of saying, "make a decision" or "pick something." It might mean making a choice from two or more things.

Some people have trouble making a decision, so others might tell them, "make up your mind!" and pick one.
