Think Outside the Box

Share on:

When you know what you want, and want it bad enough, you’ll find a way to get it. – Jim Rohn

The first time I read this, my immediate thought was UNTRUE, but then I started to think outside the box.  I’m never going to flap my arms and take off in flight – ever.  No matter how hard I try that just isn’t going to happen. That being said, I can certainly buy a plane ticket, or learn how to fly a plane or how to go hang gliding.

At one point, I really wanted to publish a book.  The only problem with that is I’m not a writer.  At least, I’m not a writer who is probably ever going to write something that is good enough to get noticed by a literary agent and picked up by a publisher.  However if you go to Amazon and look under my name, you’re going to find a book that I wrote called Thinking Positive: Take the Journey into Positivity that I self-published. Not exactly conventional, but a clear case of a way to think outside the box.

If you want something bad enough, really want it with every fiber of your being, you’ll find a way to make it happen. It may not be exactly in the way you originally thought about it, but it can and will happen.  The only think you need to do to make it happen is to think outside the box.
