Put yourself in a box and fight your way
out.
In today’s world you really
don’t have to put yourself in a “box” because so many outside forces are doing
that for us. And, sadly, many of us don’t realize that we are in a box of
limitations that have been put on us because they are disguised.
I’m going to explain how we
can get out of any “box” that we are in, whether it’s one we’ve created (and
really we create everything which happens in our life) or that which has been
placed on us; plus when we get out, we will be much, much stronger!
You may have heard this same
story which I have about someone watching a chick struggle to peck its way out
of its shell. Someone watching this was tempted to assist the young creature by
breaking the shell open but a wise farmer stated that the person should not do
so because if the chicken did not do this on its own that it would most likely
die because this struggle strengthened the chicken. Has someone always given
you things when you were a child, did you always “get your way”, did your
parent always come to your rescue when you didn’t like someone or something and
didn’t allow you to “struggle” so that now when you are older you find yourself
“not strong, and dying”?
Currently there are many
people on unemployment and/or welfare. They’ve not really “given up hope”; they’ve
just become complacent and are now in a comfort zone; some to the point that
they think all of this is now a “right”. I don’t want to get into that
discussion here but I will tell you that if this is your case that you have put
a ceiling on your potential and freedom. You are literally “tied down” to your
circumstances. You are in this “box” that I am speaking of. Here’s one way to
get out.
Accept any job, even if it’s
a very low wage. People are more apt to offer a job to someone who is working
than to someone who is not. Also when working you’ll meet people and make
contacts for better jobs and also make the effort to find better employment
while working. Create a goal to find a better job. Force yourself off welfare
and food stamps (the SNAP card); give yourself 90 days. In 30 days live on 70
percent of your “check”, in 60 days; 50% and in 90 days, say “no more!” We don’t
get ourselves in “trouble” quickly and we usually don’t get out of “trouble”
quickly. We are like the frog who enjoys the warmth of a slowly boiling pot; if
the water was already boiling we would feel the pain and jump out. We don’t
notice the water is gradually getting hotter to the point that we get boiled to
death! Unemployment benefits and welfare benefits are like the boiling pot.
Once you are out of the soon
to be (if not already) “boiling pot” and you are earning income, then I
recommend that you learn how the “rich” people think. One such person Dexter
Yager (Amway fame) always kept the attitude that he was always broke (not poor)
which he says helps him to never be complacent and motivates him to do more.
This is the box he purposely puts himself in.
Boxes are OK as long as you
are creating and in control of the box.
