One of the expressions I hear quite often is this one: “Outside the box thinking or Thinking outside the box.” Most of the time I have heard it in the context of doing something extraordinary.
You will not be able to accomplish major dreams when you are working within the confines of your limited thinking.
In this episode, our guest – Krystle Jenna Dookoo – shares with us her journey that took her from Trinidad and Tobago to the United States. This was her introduction to “thinking and living outside the box.”
She started a blog to talk about what she loved to do and the feedback she received gave her insights as to what she might want to pursue.
