The One Secret for Dealing With Chaos In Our Lives

What I learned about navigating chaos.

You can learn a lot from war. I certainly did.

As an Iraq and Afghanistan veteran, I saw firsthand chaos on a grand scale — war. My job was to study billions of raw data and forecast the opposing force’s reaction. I would soon learn that human behavior is fickle at best and unplanned surprise was imminent.

So, how can everyday citizens learn to deal with and overcome the chaos presented in their lives?

We have all been there. You are casually going about your life and then… bam! You are thrown off balance. Boom! Pow! It suddenly feels like the debris of chaos and uncertainty fills your life and things begin careening out of control.

It is not lost that we all know chaos is a living phenomenon that everyone experiences if they live long enough. Like Clausewitz, we have learned several truisms of chaos.

I can hear you now, “Okay, that’s great. But that doesn’t sound like anything ‘secret’.”
