"I have finally decided, after a great deal of study of
this, what a wrong step is. Finally found out completely what
a wrong step is. It sounds like we almost have an absolute.
Probably there are exceptions to this. But what could we do
that's wrong? Actually, could you know that there was
something to do that was wrong? Yes. That's to do nothing.
That's wrong.
"You start auditing a preclear and you discover it's the
times when he stopped communicating that he went by the boards
— just that: He stopped communicating. He decided he would no
longer communicate in that direction or he would no longer
communicate with that thing, and that preclear went by the
boards. And you can go back in the lives of any one of the
preclears you have and you will find out inevitably it's when
he decided to do nothing and decided to stop communication
that he went to pieces.
"So we can tell you by exact clinical demonstration and
experimentation that the wrong thing to do is nothing."
— L. Ron Hubbard Communication, Freedom & Ability
