VISION (eyes)
HEARING (ears)
SMELL (nose)
TASTE (tongue)
TOUCH (skin)
BALANCE (inner ear)
POSITION (musculo-skeletal)
MEMORY (brain)
IMAGINATION (mind)
PSYCHE (soul)
All ten senses have variations of INTENSITY from hyper- to hypo-intensity
EMOTIONS - we have five basic emotional systems, by which we react (unplanned) or respond (planned) to our perceptions:
ACCEPTANCE (love)
EXPOSURE (fear)
EMPOWERMENT (anger)
DEPLETION (sadness)
CELEBRATION (happiness)
All five systems have variations of PASSION from mild to moderate to passionate
MOTIVATIONS - we have five main motivational drivers, through which we prepare to act:
THOUGHTS - CONVERSATIONS (thinking or talking)
OPINIONS - VIEWPOINTS (decisions made)
VALUES - ESSENTIALS (what's important)
HABITS - MUSCLE MEMORY (repetiton)
CULTURE - ENVIRONMENT (identity and foundations)
All five drivers have variations of FLUIDITY from fluid or flexible to solid or rigid Thoughts are most fluid and least solid, and Culture is least fluid and.most solid.
BEHAVIORS - we have two pathways on which we activate:
ENGAGED - what we choose to do
DISENGAGED - what we choose not to do
Both pathways have variations of ACTIVITY from active to passive
