Will You Look Beyond The Box Of Possibilities?
Crayola crayon the childhood staple while everyone fondly remembers as a friend for life. The current catchline for Crayola is a play on the old cliché of Tabla Rasa. Tabla Rasa means blank slate. The idea is if you have Tabla Rasa, you have the ticket to limitless possibilities. The Crayon marketing slant is "A Box Of Possibilities.
Our Problem
Everyday you and I formulate the possibilities that lay before us with preconceived notions, guidelines and limitations. I proved this to myself years ago. I wanted so badly to not just be known as a writer but as an artist. In a way I achieved this. You see I really wanted this very badly. And what I wanted very badly. In fact my art was downright terribly. But I never stopped. Then I found the Draw Today learning program and the Bob Ross Painter program. People will tell you I know longer did this badly.
Our Solution
You can do as I did. I looked beyond my limitations. We only have two limitations we can never have any control over. Our birthday and our dying day. Everything else we can look over those lines you and I drew and accepted as limitations. Erase the lines of false acceptance. Think of barriers as windows that open. While you may not achieve exactly what you aim for, achieving something is more rewarding than forgoing everything. You and I have that choice. All you and I have to do is look beyond that box of possibilities.
