What’s Your Capacity?

Title: What is Your Capacity?
Description:I used to do legal work for companies that built nuclear-fueled, electric generating plants in this country, and one of the things we were always dealing with as we worked with regulatory agencies was “capacity.” Because these plants were extremely expensive, the regulators had to determine not only whether the proposed plant had enough capacity to warrant its expenses, but also how it would affect the capacity of the entire interconnected electrical system. An electrical power grid has to have built in some capacity beyond its normal “peak use” of power, or else it will not be able to meet customer needs as emergencies arise. The consequences of failure to do that are referred to in the papers as “brownouts” or in rare cases “blackouts.”

A personal transformation shares some of the characteristics of that system I just described above. Done right, a transformation will allow you to increase your capacity or “reserves” of strength, stamina, immune system resistance, and even emotional stability. AND, your extra strength, stamina and increased physical and emotional health will contribute significantly to the overall capacity of the organizations you are involved in. Your family, your work groups, your church, and any social organizations will benefit from your desire and willingess to contribute at higher levels than before.

On a personal level, other things will happen. You’ll see less of doctors, pharmacists and rehab specialists, as you will be ill less often, recover more quickly, and will avoid injuries that used to befall you. These sound like extravagant promises, but they are the clear experiences of employees who did transformations in companies that offered them as part of employee wellness programs.

So, as hard as it is to imagine right now, in the midst of all this confusing and difficult activity called a transformation, one day your life, and the lives of many others, will be more constant, predictable, useful and enjoyable than they used to be–all because you decided to change your mind, change your body, and change your LIFE!
