About this listen
Two types of people: those who chase every buzzword without asking why, and those who declare things impossible without actually trying. Both have stopped thinking.
In this episode, I challenge the intellectual complacency that's infected business thinking. From AI agent hype where nobody asks "why do we need this?" to GDPR compliance panic where everyone says "it's too hard" – people have replaced thinking with consensus-seeking.
The loudest voice wins. The shiniest buzzword gets adopted. The most common complaint becomes insurmountable truth.
Meanwhile, I implemented GDPR compliance across 20 sites while others were still complaining it was impossible. Why? Because "Geht nicht, gibt's nicht" – there's no such thing as "can't be done."
This isn't about being contrarian for sport. It's about the competitive advantage you gain the moment you start actually thinking while your competitors outsource their brains to the crowd.
What have you accepted as impossible without actually thinking it through? What bandwagon are you on without knowing why?
Time to start thinking again.
