Theme: thinking ABOUT the box

This event occurred on
January 31, 2018
Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh
India

The theme “thinking ABOUT the box” addresses limits, pushes limits and questions limit based thinking. It is based on the idea that when you grow up people around you tend to tell you that the world is the way it is and your life is just to live your life inside this world. People explain the meaning of a good life: have a settled family, earn some money, travel, have kids and enjoy. But that’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you realize one simple fact, “Everything around you that you call life was built by people who were no smarter than you and me”. That’s when you realize that you can influence the life around you, can make your own things and improve the world around you. That’s the time when you start to think outside the box.
