Introducing Permission Slip: Stop Waiting for Validation
Permission Slip is a free tool that generates personalized permission slips for yourself. Choose your situation, name your limiting belief, and give yourself official authorization to act.
Introducing Permission Slip: Stop Waiting for Validation
Here's a pattern that shows up everywhere: someone knows exactly what they want to do, has the skills to do it, and still doesn't move. Not because they can't. Because they haven't been told they're allowed to.
Ship the side project even though the landing page isn't perfect. Take a day off without a "good enough" reason. Say no to an opportunity that looks great on paper but feels wrong in practice. Pivot away from the plan everyone agreed on six months ago.
The friction isn't capability. It's permission. And most of the time, the only person who needs to grant it is you.
Permission Slip (permission-slip.jagodana.com) makes that explicit. It's a free, playful tool that generates a formal-looking permission document—signed, dated, and addressed to you—granting you authorization to do the thing you're hesitating on.
How It Works
You fill in two fields:
- Your situation — what you're trying to do or decide
- Your limiting belief — the thought that's stopping you
Permission Slip generates a beautifully formatted authorization document. Download it as an image. Pin it somewhere visible. The ritual is small but the shift is real: you've named the block and officially overruled it.
Why a Permission Slip?
Because sometimes the most useful tool isn't a productivity app or a framework. It's a gentle, slightly absurd nudge that cuts through overthinking.
The format is deliberately official—mimicking the kind of signed authorizations we grew up needing for field trips and early dismissals—because that's the point. You're an adult now. You can sign your own slips.
