Control Freak

No one likes losing control… Being in control has some counterintuitive elements. Control seems to require a stiff grip. A stiff grip that forces compliance.

A stiff grip combined with the fear of losing control is unsustainable. It’s unsustainable for 3 reasons…

  1. It requires a ton of energy

  2. It’s mostly brittle

  3. It must be precise to succeed


Control coupled with fear is a human response to the unknown. 


Death-grips within any system is the weakest link. It’s the weakest because it’s rigid. 


The element in the system that has the most flexibility is the controlling element. Watch what happens when you add ultimate flexibility to horsepower.
