Box

Don’t think outside of the box. Get outside of the box. No need to play their game. That box has nothing to do with you, or your growth. Society designed the game. It is rigged for you to lose. The good news is that you don’t have to put your faith in anything that doesn’t resonate with your soul.

People are inherently good. Or so I believe. But not many question. And even fewer do their research. That box, is your life. And I don’t believe in limits or borders when it comes to my future. It doesn’t matter my circumstances, I will get what I want. And that is because I need so little.

To think outside of the box suggest that you are entrapped. But you’re not. Only limited thinking can do that. Yes, there are privileges. But they too, can be overcome. History is lined with people overcoming horrendous backgrounds and challenges. And the common denominator that they all had was, they believed that they deserved more.

Look, life is indiscriminate. And the vast majority of us are going to take some hits. In other words, life will bag you and tag you, and then drop you in the box. And the only thing that is going to save you is your belief system. Taking action is your ladder out of the box. You are that powerful. And the minute you embrace that fact, the box becomes insignificant.

So don’t listen to them when they say to think outside of the box. Fuck that box, and everything associated with it. The box is a border. And you don’t belong in chains. Do yourself a favor. Affirm that YOU decide how it all goes down for you. Then take every step you need to accomplish your dreams. Because the box is a vacuum. And dreams cannot exist there.
