To me it would sound better this way:
There are three forms of doing: not doing (procrastinating), doing (specific action), and done (moving on).
"Being" is not a "doing". Being is existing in the "now", without a past, without a future, with no desires, without action. It is a state that is achieved by only a handful of people.
- code_duck 15y agoYeah, I'm not sure how one goes from 'not knowing' to 'action'. Seems like this would be similar to a physics puzzle of jumping states with no in-between state. That is, one has to go from 'not knowing' to 'knowing what action to take' which might involve 'studying' prior to 'action'. I realize that's not as catchy, though.

- thorax 15y agoSounds to me like it's implying that if you aren't in "not knowing" then you know enough to act and better be doing so.
