"The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers"

He wasn't, "the bard" for nothin'!

You have to think outside the box otherwise you’re to focused on what’s in front of you. You have to step back and look at the problem from “outside the box” to see the details.

It is easy to take jabs at folks for using the overused but it takes a wordsmith to come up with a better phrase. I kinda like some clichés. So don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.

A lot of these phrases annoy because they’re shorthand for “I can’t solve it, you figure it out”.

"Nothing is impossible!" Said by a sales critter who had just promised something we absolutely could not deliver in the time frame he had guaranteed.

To which I resort, "oh yeah? Try walking though a revolving door with skis over your shoulder."

They forgot “It is what it is” and “At the end of the day”.

Whenever I hear “think outside the box” I always raise my hand and ask, “Does it have to be a box?”

How about "Don't worry about the horse being blind, just load the wagon"?

(Oh, wait a minute.   That was Coach John Madden.   He was thinking outside the nine dots.)

Thinking outside of the box is actually something few know how to do much of any more. People have become so programmed.
