Just do it is great advice and much of the people that have big problems with it should just do it. It means don't sit there thinking about how I said "just".

It means don't sit there thinking about how I said "just". Or how it means I think you're dumb. It means just fucking do it. Just do it. Do it.
The people I've enjoyed working the most have just sat down and done it. Difficult things too. Things that took time. They just did the work. So stop thinking about the shenanigans and just do it.
It's sad and funny how much people will fight the words and spend time arguing this is too crass or not kind instead of just doing it.
This is my hill I guess.

- NateEag 4y ago"Just do it", as described in your post, is a great and productive attitude. It is, however, rare that telling someone else "just do it" gives them that attitude. I have never seen it happen. I have said "just..." and seen the effect described in the article. Asking questions, developing an understanding of what may be holding someone else back from "just doing it", then offering them any help you can provide them is much more likely to help them develop the attitude, in my experience.
