Don't think outside the box


People who we try to motivate and open their eyes, and expand their perspective, we usually tell them that they should think outside the box, and sometimes that doesn’t work and we find them instead of imagining, and working on enhancing their personal and professional skills, searching for the box. Concerned with what was instead of what would be, and limiting their mind in any possible way.
It’s like telling someone you can swim anywhere, and instead of going straight to the sea -which is in front of him- he'd try to figure out how big is the sea, and where he might head to enjoy his time, not noticing that during this stupid thinking process they lose precious time that could have been better spent at enjoying a swim and the sea.
So when dealing with people who have been living inside a box -without knowing so- don't tell them think outside the box, instead, break the box in front of their eyes, only then they WILL have to think.
