“The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything.” -- Theodore Roosevelt
Got five minutes? Got five fingers? Sweet…high five!
We are going to do an exercise (not pilates). I am going to help you get nowhere fast. You spent your whole life getting somewhere. For the next few whatevers you can spend one of your life going nowhere with me. It costs nothing.
Don’t do. Do don’t.
You got to this point, exactly here, by doing each and everything you could do, to this very point, to get to this point. You are very pointy. But what is the point? Perhaps you want and need to be somewhere else? Or someone else? Or something else? Or pointing at someone doing something or else? Let me get to my point…
Don’t do that. Don’t do what you are doing. Do what you are don’ting.
Don’t has an easy definition. Don’t is something that must not be done. You are an inspired & cheeky lass so you must do that which must not be done. You must do don’t and by that virtue you won’t. And those who won’t do don’t.
Now don’t quit reading this. You want to know what you are doing…don’t you?
Do not.
DO…NOT.
Don’t.
If you want to do something you just do it. But if you want to do nothing, you just don’t it.
So do nothing and then do something and then after that thing do something else and anything else followed by nothing else. Or else do nothing again, which would really be something. Get better at something even if that something is nothing. Then you can get better at nothing while you are at it.
Don’t try. Try don’t.
Those who don’t, do don’t. If you don’t don’t, you do do. You don’t need to do do, do you? Don’t is less mess.
You do you, they say. You however now can say, you don’t you.
Because if you do to completion, you are done. By that math if you don’t to completion, you are never done. If you are never done you can do forever. Thus by don’ting you are a frigging eternal. Bravo space warrior lets planet dance!
Now you did it…you don’ted and you’re done. Do it again. Or don’t.
