I am definetly "out of the box". I am a rebel if you want to call me that. I do not "buy" everything that is presented to me. I do not do things based on what others think. I do not do anything to please society in general. I do things because I think that's the right thing to do, I always keep in mind my goal and what I want to accomplish but I never do something just to please someone.
I am very much so out of the box. I don't think like others around me and tend not to even care what they think about me. Friends are nice, but being myself is more important to me. I also never do anything to just please someone, but I am very blunt and my friends all have to except that Im different and am the way I am. My parents never have been able to accept that. My ideas are unique and different and Im not afraid to share my ideas and am not afraid of what others will say about my ideas. Yes, outside the box is where is stand, where I belong, and where I like it.
I think you are right. I think you can see if a person is in the box and just a follower, but can anyone really admit if they are? Come to think of it, I haven't ever met someone who told me, "Im just part of the crowd, I do what everyone else does." That wouldn't make sense, everyone sees themselves as unique, different, and out of the box for the most part.
