LightLane - Breaking Symmetry in Problem Solving

Light Lane - Concept from Altitude’s Alex Tee and Evan Gant « Dustbowl

LightLane is a prototype of a new technology that allows cyclists to project a cycle lane onto the road where they are cycling. This resolves the problem of cycle lanes taking up much needed road space even when there are no cyclists.

So how does LightLane break symmetry? Well, a cycle lane is only created at those times when a cyclist is using the road (when a lane is needed).

Today's question: How can you break symmetry in your business or life. Another way of looking at it is to ask yourself "What is currently 'Always On' or fixed in my life/business that might benefit from only being active when it is needed?
