What’s In Your Box?
2008-01-07 16:34:00 Thinking “Out of the Box,” living “out of the box,” getting out of the box - just exactly what do we mean? Actually it means a lot of things and basically refers to those limiting beliefs you hold that keep you from achieving what you want in life.

Why You’re Not Already Wealthy
2008-01-07 16:15:00 By Tony Rush http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Tony_Rus h  Everyone lives in a box. Your perception of “how things are” is your box. Own a house? It’s in your box. Got kids? They’re in your box. Earning $43,565 at a job you don’t like? That job is in the box. So is the $43,565. Here’s what else: if you believe that hard work is required to be successful…that hard work is in your box, too. If you think that you’re not wealthy because of your lack of education…that lack of wealth is in the box. Along with your lack of a college degree. It’s all in there.
