#Don’t #Don’t: 2017-05-27

• You cannot do something that does not exist; therefore, stop telling yourself not to do something, because that leaves you no choice but to do it.
• You cannot do something that does not exist; therefore, stop telling yourself not to forget something, because that leaves you no choice but to forget it.
• You cannot think something that does not exist; therefore, stop telling yourself not to think something, because that leaves you no choice but to think it.
• When you demand that you do not do something, you are demanding that you do “not” or nothing; therefore, your pressure to do must release on the only thing available: doing that which you do not want to do.

• You can use “do not” for information, facts, and knowledge; but refrain from using “do not” for actions, behaviors, directions, practices, and procedures.
