It is like trying to go beyond what is currently possible into uncharted territory.
Thinking outside the box means to gather and entertain new information upon which you can base new and different ideas and thoughts. It is also pushing your thoughts into uncharted territory and thinking outside the box could cause you to push the envelope.
Pushing the right button is altogether a different concept. This has more to do with actions, reactions and provocations. |
Thanks for joining the "Fruit Mixing" game. LOL!
Here is my comprehension.
Mike: That girl in my class is gorgeous, I want to ask her out today.
Ron: That's very nice. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
Mike: But I'm not an outgoing person. I'm chicken.
Ron: You have to
push the envelope. Just give it a try!
There are some interesting examples relating to 'think outside the box.' Quote:
Are you trapped inside the box?
Can you think 'outside of the box'?
It means leaving behind frustration, anger, stress, and fear.
Can you be creative?
Can you manifest in a reality of infinite possibilities?

I love this one.

We also have Jack in the Box
who is the Clown, Trickster, Joker
who is linked to the elements of surprise
music, geometry and The Game of 3D.
When you think 'out of the box'
you can think beyond his Game.

Do I push the right button? I heard someone said it's a question that you ask someone if you are right or not. :wink:
