When was the last time you took a step back and looked at the people you're working with or even hiring? In short - The mirror effect is when you hire people that remind you of yourself. This unconscious bias causes you to end up with a team that looks and acts exactly like you. Don't believe us? Take a look around at the people you're surrounded by, and who hired them. You'll most likely see a pattern.

This week we sit down with Scaled Robotics CEO, Stuart Maggs. Stuart specializes in construction robotics and brings really interesting perspectives on the building processes we use today and where the strengths of robotics are in our industry.  Excerpt from Scaled Robotics website - "Scaled Robotics was founded by a multidisciplinary team of experts in construction and robotics. The founders met in 2014, quickly becoming friends. Sharing a common vision to reduce the waste and inefficiency in the industry, the founders embarked on a journey to modernize construction. Bringing to bear years of experience in construction and robotics, Stuart and Bharath are passionate about transforming the entire industry with new processes and tools."

Today we channel our inner Kasparov to discuss the fact that things are better when you think several moves ahead. Whenever possible, it’s best to be methodical and avoid the need to make decisions on the fly.    We discuss how we’ve seen people do this effectively–including a former colleague who would occasionally head to the back room, pop in his earbuds, and do the dishes. Sometimes it even bothered us because not doing anything doesn’t feel or look like hard work. But thinking is doing something. Thinking is working.    It feels counterintuitive to simply marinate in silence, but it’s essential. It enables you to stitch up those seams today so things won’t unravel tomorrow.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Discipline or regret. It’s one or the other.    Tyler shares his morning routine and the challenges of consistency, and we discuss how much harder it is to start a new routine than to maintain an existing one.   Life, especially family life, doesn’t lend itself to consistency.   Discipline is uncomfortable for a time, but regret can last a long, long time.   Discipline=freedom.    By the way, if you’re wondering who Blippi and Meekah are (from Tyler’s morning Dad routine), you can check them out here.
