Whether you like the new Kaito update or not, I always like to look at things from a practical perspective.You can't control Kaito's algo, the platform's decision, or even X itself.You CAN control what you do every day, and you can decide whether it's worth doing a certain thing to (potentially) get that other thing or not.If you've been "nuked" by the update, I think you have two possible paths forward:1) Focus on yourself and try to build an audience over time (which is hard and frankly not guaranteed).2) ...

TEDx Talks· 2025-07-08 15:47
Core Argument - The prevailing belief that control is inherently good is challenged, suggesting it may lead to brittle systems rather than resilient ones [1][2] - Adaptive systems, characterized by trust and psychological safety, are proposed as more successful than those based on strict control [3][10] Psychological Safety & Trust - Psychological safety, not talent or intelligence, is identified as the key factor in successful teams [10] - Trust-based teams exhibit 50% more productivity, 76% better engagement, and 40% less burnout [12] - Creating a safe and trusted environment releases dopamine and oxytocin, fostering creativity, connectivity, and engagement [11] Letting Go & Influence - Letting go is presented not as weakness but as a form of influence and intention, creating space for growth and trust [16][17] - Overly regulated economies and autocratic systems are prone to collapse, highlighting the limitations of excessive control [14] - Parenting styles that support autonomy raise more resilient and emotionally intelligent children [15] Practical Application - Individuals are encouraged to relinquish control in relationships, teams, or parenting to observe potential positive outcomes [17][18] - In chaotic times, letting go is emphasized as a source of power, contrasting with the illusion of control [19][20]
