Human Capacity is the essence of Human Life. It follows, therefore, that Capacity is also affected by Cycles, as is the case with Human Life. In fact, in the larger perspective, our entire life is a cycle. So, every moment or combinations of moments are cycles. A cycle has an up and a down. Nature goes in cycles like day/night, seasons or calendar events.So, Human capacity should also be following such natural cycles, in terms of its expressions.
The first cycle that affects capacity is Physical. Like all other capacities, Physical capacity is genetically conditioned. However, a lot can be developed through periodic conditioning. Workout done with regularity can enhance physical express-ability and make it go on for a longer time, with least downtime.Physical capacity is also based on the input or fuel you feed it with, because, junk you feed, junk you breed! Right energy is what you feed, energy is what you harvest. The physical discipline required seems to be so tough for most of us because , we either don't find a good reason for expression of capacity or we fear the effort. However , if we can start from at least one of them, and commit ourselves to it for a while, great achievements are possible. It is not as much about being spectacular as it is with being persistent. For example mind says," I have already worked out yesterday, so let me relax today." This is precisely when you bring the strong reason to your mind on why you chose to exercise, in the first place. And then since, putting effort might be your weak area, all that you need to do is , tell yourself, "can I work out for only the next 5 minutes?" .
You are most likely to experience a workout for longer than 5 minutes!
The second cycle is Intellectual. When you practice on a regular basis, to push your thinking to newer levels of achievement, it unfolds your intellectual capacity. It starts off with you taking slightly tougher problems than what you can handle right now and working on it with determination, till you get a solution. It calls for continuously upgrading your knowledge, skills in your chosen areas. These upgrades should be part of your daily, weekly and monthly goals. More and more practice of taking challenges in mathematics is a perfect example of how intellectual capacity can be increased.
The third cycle is Emotional Cycle. It starts with observation or self awareness. Emotion is a high quantum of energy within you. It usually is accompanied by the current of energy that can sweep you off your feet, if you cannot find your hold. Anger, Sadness or even euphoria are all examples. So, what is capacity building here? It is your ability to use these emotions, not lead you in a habitual pattern, but , into the groove of a new response you want to choose. Therefore, it calls for high levels of awareness. The next time you are about to get onto an emotional trip, just become aware and hold fort. Don't get into the usual pattern of behaviors, and instead choose a new way of behavior that would not make you restless or leave you with lack of peace.
What we should know is that these three cycles i.e Physical, Intellectual and Emotional are constantly hunting cycles in our lives. They usually have a cycle that is almost equal to a lunar month. The combination of these three is what we call PIE-- being aware of the share of these three in our lives can help us regulate our capacity to blossom at its best.
