You are correct. Using the same wiki  article it is the structure of how we think about things, shaping the way we look at things, and even determining the very questions we ask. When one is thinking inside the box they are acting according to their paradigms. When one thinks outside the box one is allowing themselves not to be stuck in a paradigm. Sometimes one paradigm is very popular but over time it is replaced by a new paradigm. This is called a paradigm shift. Neither is right or wrong but as time goes on a transition occurs that hopefully results in paradigms that are more useful for asking the right questions to arrive at truth.


The danger of paradigms is that one might not ask the right questions and therefore not arrive at the best answers.
