Abstract

Abstract Entropy, a measure of disorder or energy dispersion, often evolves nonlinearly within complex systems. Such behavior, combined with feedback loops and threshold-induced tipping points, can lead to abrupt and irreversible transitions. This paper connects these well-established phenomena to a proposed “universal law of balance in nature,” which asserts that decisions and processes must preserve systemic equilibrium to avoid catastrophic imbalance. We explore how nonlinear entropy dynamics inform this balance and outline implications for leadership, environmental management, and systemic resilience.
