I think people should always think outside the box, it means to think the way not how normal people thinks. Like instead of walking, you think of riding horse. Instead of going to a restaurant, you order it to home.
I got this idea when my math teacher asked me a question. The question was, there is 9 dots in 3 rows of three. The trick is to connect all the dots with four lines without lifting the pen from the paper. It was quite confusing, and I tried for several times but yet I couldn't solve the mystery. The next day, the teacher showed us the solution, I was amazed by how tricky this question is.
Thinking outside the box can solve a lot of problems. Like in playing basketball, it is always hard to block a shot from the front, so I thought, "hey, why not try it from the back?", it made blocking so much easier. And in CSI, how the investigators always can think the other way to find the trail that leads them to the suspect. I believe that thinking outside the box can do a lot of good and is a great way to think when coming to geometry problems and basketball. This I believe.~~~
