When all thinks alike, no one thinks very much.
~ Walter Lippmann

Your Box is simply a metaphor for your comfort zone, your experience and your habits. You become what you think and do everyday.

Over time, it locks you in like a Box.

What is your reality? What do you do every day?
Be aware because your reality will determine the quality of your life.

Let’s examine a typical scenario:

Get up in the morning. Wash up and off to work. While on the bus, the train, the cab or your car, the morning scenery to work is a blur.

The subway train station is like a giant magnet. People from all walks of life get sucked in like a production floor conveyor belt, to be sent to the various work stations around the country. Sleepy faces, unhappy faces, traffic jams, expressway jams, brain jam.

Take a moment to stand aside and observe the crowd on any work day morning. I’m sure it will be a mind opener, especially when you realized that you are actually one of them.

In the office, you pushed paper. You stared at the screen and clicked the mouse. You dial numbers and you attend meetings (which never seem to end). After meetings, you draft memos for the next meeting. A little chit chat, a quick coffee break and soon it is lunch time. Throw in some fresh air plus a little window shopping, and run the errands. You survived the toughest part of the work day – the work morning!

Ditto in the afternoon.

Routine repeats itself. The clock ticks and it’s soon time to go home. Back on the road with the same blur. Grouchy faces, tired faces, traffic jams, expressway jams, brain jam and hungry tummies…. Home at last. You grab a quick bite, a quick shower and a little TV. May be a little net surfing. Then it’s time for bed. Another day bites the dust. Soon, you are in dreamland. Before you know it, the alarm clock goes off. Get up in the morning. Wash up and off to work…..

Monday to Tuesday, Tuesday to Wednesday and soon the weekend. TGIF. Weekend warriors. Play till you drop. Shop till you drop. Party till you drop. Catch up with family and friends. Obligations. Hangover. Sleep late. Before you know it, the weekend is over. The grinding starts again. Day after day. Week after week. Month after month. Year after year. Home to office. Office to home.

This is REALITY for many people. I know. I used to be one of them. You wonder why you are not happy. You wonder why you don’t feel fulfilled. Why? Because you are not in control! You feel stuck. You are stuck. But you can do something about it.
