DIY ethic

DIY ethic is a way of thinking and doing things that encourages people to be creative and independent. It says that instead of buying things or relying on other people to do something, you can try to do it yourself! DIY means Do It Yourself. People with a DIY ethic are usually creative and like to fix things and make things themselves. They don't rely on other people to do things for them. They like to figure out how to do things on their own, instead of relying on someone else to do it for them.
