Do one thing

A New York couple's take on what is a very typically Indian English phrase..a literal translation of the Hindi 'ek kaam karo' (or similar statements in other languages like Tamil or Marathi or possibly others too) . As they put it

One thing can be ten things, but it’s still one thing: it’s clarity. It’s an answer. It’s a solution. It’s a way to move forward. “Do one thing” is so powerful because it implies an exit from this mess. “Do one thing” means that debate is over and it’s time for action. To argue with “do one thing” is to be against progress, against action. A “do one thing” solution is one that is presented not for consideration but for execution.

Couldn't have explained it any better! So simple, yet so effective.
