If you think outside the box, then you would not hit any walls- Ephrime Buckings
Sometimes we are conditioned to think within the box. Rules, guidelines, and procedures are only designed to keep things and people in order. When reaching your career dreams, you would come across red tape. It is up to you to decide whether you would proceed forward or turn back. I remember when I was a sophomore in college attending an employer informational. The recruiter stated that among the thousand applicants that they receive each year, they only select three interns. To make matters even worst, they usually hire juniors from the top design programs. I had three strikes against me.
I had to make an interpretation of what I just heard. I didn't let that stop me. I was confident to say to myself that it was okay because that only meant that they had two slots left. I was able to not only get an interview, but use my creative abilities to think out of the box to wow the interviewer. Despite all the rules and regulations, when you think outside the box, you would not hit the walls.
Aspire. Create. Develop.
