The ol’ adage: There is no try, only “do”. 

That is, don’t be uncertain. Be assured and focus on accomplishment. 

The adage appeals to some, but for White there is only try try try try… interspersed with “done” and resumed with try try try try… 

Try is smarter than do, because what is done is either flawed and incomplete, or part of a larger project in process. And White’s ideals never let up, so “do” and “done” are like distant mountains. “Do” is mountain peak only. “Try” is trail and trees, pretty birds and singing rivers.
