do it
Command to act
Do it is an emphatic way to urge action—on oneself or others.
Nike's "Just do it" captures the sense of overcoming hesitation.
The phrase often stands alone as encouragement or command: Come on, do it!
In sexual contexts, do it is a common euphemism for having sex: They finally did it.
I can't believe you actually did it.
