Great piece! Control theory’s focus on managing dynamic feedback loops reminds me of a key insight I am working on from Peter Bernstein’s Against the Gods and how the illusion of control can sometimes lead us astray.
In my world (talent development), it’s tempting to react to every deviation, but real progress comes from keeping the end goal in mind and making thoughtful adjustments.
Loved the practical takeaways, especially the idea of working backward from the goal (in golf start with the green in mind). Thanks for sharing!
