Some questions are answered with affirmative

Some questions are answered with negative 

Still, other questions are answered with apathy and by default the answer is No

If you cannot answer with either a positive or negative response, you have by default, answered No

Far too people who use this strategy understand this concept and far fewer who refuse to answer the question realize they have, by default, taken the negative direction. Life does not wait for, "I am not yet ready."  If a road accident presents directly in your path, you have a split second to choose your reaction. Not choosing a reaction, still directs the path of your car. You did nothing to alter its path. You answered the question, by inaction. I do not want to live my life by chance and my own inactions. I want to sit in the front seat, my hands around the steering wheel, turn signals, ignition, lights and mostly my foot on the gas and away from the break pedal. 

Because if I am going to get there, I want to drive the bus!
