     %DOMINANT CONCEPTS WORDS REALITY RELATE ISSUES 910227

     The nature  of the life of a person  depends  greatly
upon   the   dominant   concepts,    words,     realities,
relationships  and  issues which are at the focus  of  the
person's daily life.

     The construction  worker  has  a  life  focused  upon
handling  pieces of word,  metal,  and other  construction
materials  and tools.   The banker has a life focused upon
dealing  with  money  and  the symbols  for  money.    The
biologist works with living things and tissues from living
things.    The mathematician works with  abstract  symbols
representing  quantities  and quantitative  relationships.
The  character of the entities which are at the center  of
attention  in a person's life has a profound influence  on
how that person perceives the totality of life.

     Each person  has  a limit  to  how  many  contrasting
realities  and  relationships they can deal with.    If  a
person  is  "filled up"  with consideration of  impersonal
relationships, the  person  will  not  have  room in their
life  for  considerations entailing contrasting  concepts,
ideas and relationships which are characteristic to inter-
personal transactions;  and so such a person will find  it
difficult to cope as effectively as another person who had
specialized in inter-personal relationships.

     Thus  it  is  that it is important for  a  person  to
select  a    balanced    diet   of   concepts,      words,
realities,   relationships   and  issues  upon  which   to
focus   daily attention and concern.    In the absence  of
such a balanced diet,  life is likely to be out of balance
and unhealthy.
