Thinking Outside the Box

Hi my friends, I hope you're doing well today.  Do you know when I owned my first business, I had everybody wear a T-shirt that said “Results Rule.”  In other words, don't tell me about what you're thinking or what you might be doing, but show me that you can do it.

And so I talk a lot about thinking outside the box.  You know you hear this all the time. Someone says, “You got to think outside the box.”  But I told the team at that time, “I don't want you to be thinking outside the box.  Don't think outside the box, I want you to Throw the Box Outside the Window.  Just throw it out.”  In business, we call that zero-based thinking.  Zero-base thinking means, if I have to do things all over again, and I had no limitation on resources, what would I do?

Look, your life is your life.  Your destiny is in your hands.  Yes, you can control your future, by the thoughts you put in your mind, and by the feelings you hold in your soul.  So I'm telling you, don't think outside the box, throw the box outside the window, and say to yourself… “Yes, I can.  My tomorrow's will be better than my today's.  I can and I will because I have Chosen to be Extraordinary!”

I'm depending on you.  Yes, I am.  Have a great day.
