Significant adversity. Stupendous joy. Huge problems. Big solutions. Stifling limitations. Endless opportunities. Do you shatter boxes?

A maid concludes that prominent executives kneeling down on the floor to iron on a tiny iron board with a tiny iron MAKES NO SENSE. She writes the brass at The Marriott about her view and forever more, The Marriott offers full sized ironing boards and irons long before anyone else did.  Do you shatter boxes?

An elderly woman gets on the same bus she had ridden for some time and as always, is told to get in the back of the bus. One day she simply refuses.  Rosa Parks. We all know the story. Do you shatter boxes?

A very successful and dear friend of mine, confessing she needs to work on paying it forward more often. An amazingly successful attorney, challenging himself to become a much stronger leader. A passionate economic developer that at one time was allowing his job to slowly kill him, decides it’s time to get serious about work/life balance… do you shatter boxes?

Life is always about our choices. Do you shatter boxes or do you let them suck the life out of you, keeping you nice and cozy exactly where you are? Shatter more, comply less.

Food for thought-
