Everything's moving so quickly that everybody is thinking fast, fast, fast, fast, fast. And it causes morale issues, profitability issues, creativity issues. What happens when you're thinking fast is you create a bunch of fires. And when you create a bunch of fires, everyone's focused on operations instead of the creative part of your business, which is really what makes us the money.

I think it's about the body. It's about calming down. You probably shouldn't have seven espressos.

I'll argue that with you. I can have seven espressos. When you're looking at a plan. I'm a visionary. What you're doing to make them stop and think about all the consequences.

Hi, thank you for joining us on another episode of Special Ops podcast today. Dun dun, dun, we have Tiago from our team. We're super excited. We're going to be talking about why speed thinking is killing morale, creativity and profits in your business. Tiago has written for you how how to Slow down and Reduce the noise. It's a ebook that he put together. It's in the Visionary Vault. You can find that over at www.specialopspodcast.com. i'm your host, Emma Rainville. Let's go. Let's get into it. So we're talking about this topic today because it's a big problem for us, for all of our clients. Everything's moving so quickly that everybody is thinking fast, fast, fast, fast, fast. And it causes morale issues, it causes profitability issues, and overall, it causes creativity issues. Because what happens when you're thinking fast instead of thinking things through dynamically is you create a bunch of fires. And when you create a bunch of fires, everyone's focused on operations instead of the creative part of your business, which is really what makes us the money. I'd love to hear your thoughts around that, your experience around that.

Certainly. So very happy to be here. The first thing is, I believe this is especially a problem with visionary entrepreneurs. They think fast. They think like very creatively, very fast. And they're prolific. And that's why I guess we love them. Right? But at the same time, you said it. They are going to come up with solutions, which is one solution and one problem, like mixed together, probably a short term solution and a midterm problem or a couple of them, actually. So how I like to think about this is, first of all, I think it's about the body. And I know I may go a bit hippie here, you know, and you know me already, Emma, but what's speeding up, first of all, is the body of the person. So if you think about a visionary entrepreneur, they are at speed, like in their mind and in their body. I remember I used to work with someone you met, you knew, and that's how we met. That's how we met. And when I met him and we. We are going to get to talk about team building, I realized that he had seven Nespressos every day. Seven. So there was absolutely no way that. I think you're probably guilty of that as well.
