<\/p>\nLive outside the box! Let\u2019s say it again. Live outside the box and dare to no longer be defined by the “confines of a box.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Why is it that so many people today are defined by the proverbial “box” and quite frankly seem to like to stay in the comfortable confines of a box?<\/p>\n
Think about it.<\/p>\n
\nMost people sleep on a “bed\/box” talk on a “phone\/box”, email from a “blackberry\/box”, type on a “laptop\/box”, eat from a “drive thru\/box lunch”, drive to work in a “car\/box”, and then set their AM wake up call to be made from a “alarm clock.box” etc. No wonder people are so comfortable with box type thinking. <\/p>\n
Organizations are no different than people– as organizations are made up of people. <\/p>\n
I challenge everyone who seeks to be a leader to “live outside the box.” Furthermore, look at 2010 as it is, and see our organizational problems for what they are… etc instead of looking at them as worse than they are. <\/p>\n
Lets focus on seeing things that others do not see and being a leader who is not adverse to trying new ways of doing things. Let\u2019s work to find a better way to do things… and then work to make these things a reality.<\/p>\n
Living outside the box, is uncomfortable to many who love their simple, black and white (no gray), four walls up… and “box oriented” world.
\nHowever, to compete now and the years ahead– the box has to go away and the four walls must come down to allow free energy, creativity, and unbridled ideas to occur.<\/p>\n
What box do you face? Do you like the confines of your box?<\/p>\n
