đď¸Episode 23: Understand You Control Nothing, But Influence Everything! đ§Welcome to episode 23 of Agents of Everything, where we explore the intricate balance of control and influence in life's complex systems. In this episode, we shine a light on how neurolinguistic programming (NLP) can help us navigate the complexities of the 21st century. From understanding systems to embracing emergent phenomena, we make our way into dynamic interplay of interdependent elements that shape our reality. Join me in unpacking the nature of influence and control, the unpredictability of complex systems, and the art of achieving desired outcomes in the vast network of our interconnected world.
