Lack of Ideas? Don’t Think Outside The Box!

This may sound familiar to you: Whenever you lack ideas, you will be told to think outside the box.

To think outside the box is a metaphor that describes a state where you want to think innovatively, creatively, and differently. Because you might find that no matter how harder you do, you can’t change certain things.

I found that using the box in the metaphor accurately reflects people’s usual way of thinking. People are primarily limited by their past knowledge and experience. They form a network of memories deeply embedded in our brain nerves. That network is exactly like a box we hold in our brains.

WHAT if people can break free from that network of memories? Thinking out of the box shall be an easy thing. When I had that idea, I couldn’t hold it to myself. I want to share it with anyone stuck with their current situation or idea.

How to shall be another topic. But before that, you need to see the possibility. Do you realize that you have a box of memories that you hold dearly whenever you think about something? Leave your comment below.
