BUILT 2 SCALE | TOOL OF THE WEEK | Episode 35
Every week, Matty and Scotty break down the strategies, frameworks, and tools that separate the world's best builders from everyone else.
This week: Consumecute, the workflow that turns mindless consumption into active execution.
The Trigger: Am I Consuming or Building?
Scotty's 2026 resolution: check if you're consciously consuming or mindlessly scrolling. Conscious consumption builds. Mindless scrolling is gluttony—input without output.
Claude Cowork Challenge
Matty's challenge: think about your most time consuming process. Try automating it with Claude Cowork. You'll be surprised what's possible.
Consumecute: Capture Your Consumption
Export your Apple Podcast history, drop into ChatGPT for takeaways, plug into Monday.com or Notion. Build training data for AI to run your decisions through everything you've consumed.
Connect Productive and Consumption Tools
Plug in emails, Teams messages, everything. Ask AI: "Based on how I'm communicating, is this aligned with my values?" Stop living separate lives between consumption and productivity.
The Audible Experiment
Scotty condensed 110 Audible books into one sentence: "A system is an incentive structure pointed at an outcome." 44 books over 10 years into one formula. Now used at work: vision (CEO), incentives (humans), system (automation).
Zoom In and Out
Use your condensed sentence as North Star or zoom into details on specific topics. Capture data that matters. Fine tune your decision logic. This took 15 minutes with a few plugins and one automation.
The Takeaway:
Recapture your attention. Turn consumption into execution. Connect tools. Guilt free scrolling exists when pointed at an outcome.
Are you consciously consuming or mindlessly scrolling? What habit are you turning into leverage in 2026?
