Summary

In Episode 72 , the Unlocked trio—Tony ( Assured Security ), Lars ( Calgary Lock & Safe ), and Chad ( Loc-Doc Security )—dive into the psychology of decision-making. Inspired by the work of Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman and sage advice from "Uncle Glenn," they explore System 1 (Fast/Habitual) and System 2 (Slow/Analytical) thinking. The guys discuss how to use "Level 2" brainpower to architect "Level 1" processes that run on autopilot, freeing up mental energy for high-stakes strategy. From Chad’s self-driving car reducing commute fatigue to Tony’s specialized pinning stations that eliminate technical guesswork, this episode is a masterclass in building a business that "rhymes with sufficiency". Whether you're fighting decision fatigue or trying to scale technician training beyond "osmosis," learn how to stop reacting and start orchestrating your business operations.
