In the epic movie, The Empire Strikes Back, Luke Skywalker is standing motionless on the edge of a swamp as his X-wing fighter sinks even deeper into the muck.  Yoda, the Jedi Grand Master, encourages Luke to use “the force” to lift the aircraft out of the swamp, but Luke remains non-responsive.  To his mentor, Luke weakly replies, “Ok … I’ll give it a try.”  Yoda responds to Luke with an impatient tone, “No. Try not!  Do … or do not.  There is no try.”
