Don't Read It!
Ok, so you decided to go on and read. Well this act itself
endorses what I am about to share.
We are “DO THE DON’T” people.
We explicitly attempt what’s
prohibited while thinking “uMMmmmUM (it’s not ummmmmum, follow the caps for high
notes, try it…… yup perfect), there must be some fun hiding in
there…Why should I be refrained?”
We read DON’T as “Definitely One Nice Try”
it’s in our
genes like while leaving your kids in room alone for a while, you tell them
“Don’t touch this, don’t do that” and they are like “uMMmmmUM….let the fun
begin”. When we tell them “Don’t spoil your cloths while playing outside” they
again think “uMMmmmUM….” Not only kids, the law says “Don’t ride without
helmet” and we are like “uMMmmmUM….must be fun”
We are the explorers and we look for adventure everywhere.
You write “Don’t Stick Bills” and we will dare it out, your advice “Don’t park
here” and we will say “hell yes”.
But is it that bad?
No, it’s matter of perception and this could be induced to
bring out positive results. When I see my son doing something wrong, I say
“Wow, great, keep doing it, how nice this feels … haina? Shabash!” and it
spoils his fun, it takes out all the adventure, a road without obstacle…. Not
worth.
Same goes with the campaigns like anti-smoking. I think they
should write “Enjoy smoking, its wonderful out there in hospitals, doctors are
relying on you for their bread and butter. Nobody is going to miss you when you
are gone, your existence doesn’t make any difference to the world…”
You know why it would work? Because we hate to take
instructions/orders. Who the hell are others to tell me what to do? It might
not be my way but it’s definitely won’t be your way, jaa karle jo karna hai. We will always disgust if something comes
without instructions despite the fact that we don’t entertain what’s there with
instructions!!
But is it only the people who act this way?
You are doing well, no tension no worries and you don’t want
them either and suddenly the life goes
“uMMmmmUM…”
