BYS 05/24/25 🟨 Give Yourself The Greenlight
The answer might be to start your own.
Instead of waiting for something to change or someone else to launch the service you're looking for, you may need to give yourself the greenlight to create what you need. Sometimes the best solution is the one you build yourself.
You don't need permission to take initiative in today's Big Yellow Sticky...
Start Your Own.
If you’re not satisfied with the options in front of you, maybe it’s time to create options of your own.
You don’t have to stick with systems that don’t work for you or wait for someone else to create the thing you need. You’re allowed to build your own version... your own rules, your own path, your own thing. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be yours.
When Ben Silbermann couldn’t find a simple place to visually collect ideas online, he built one. Pinterest wasn’t a response to a trend, it became the trend.
Rejected by Hollywood, Tyler Perry started writing, producing, and touring his own stage plays. He built his own audience from the ground up and now owns one of the largest film studios in the U.S.
Starting your own can mean launching a business, creating a new routine, or building a better way to do something. The important part is that you give yourself the greenlight instead of hoping someone else will. When you take that first step, you’re not just fixing a problem -- you’re creating a solution that didn’t exist before.
See you tomorrow with a brand new Big Yellow Sticky...
