Take it half-hearted

Idiom

To consider or work on something without enthusiasm or effort

Don't just toy with the idea of becoming an actor and take it half-hearted, if you really want to be an actor, work for it!

Don't take it to heart

The one phrase that immediately makes you take it to heart.

"I'm just saying, kiddo, what you're doing is offending others and it's getting you nowhere. Don't take it to heart."
Reverse psychology ensues; kiddo takes it to heart and sees themself as a terrible person.

Take it to Heart

To be (deeply) hurt by criticism from someone.

On the morning after Taylor and Carl's acrimonious break-up, Taylor felt terrible for her downright venomous attitude towards Carl and hoped that he didn't take it to heart. But alas, he did; that morning, he was found dead in an apparent suicide.
