9.0 Reality Capacity (Master Cycle)

Reality Capacity is the truth-testing backbone of the Lifelong Capacities Map®. It integrates four competencies — 9.1 Accurate Reality Appraisal, 9.2 Differentiating Assumptions from Facts, 9.3 Acceptance of Limits with Innovation, and 9.4 Practical Wisdom in Uncertainty — into one Reality Alignment Cycle. Instead of swinging between denial, magical thinking, and catastrophic fear, you learn to see the facts, sort facts from assumptions, accept limits without collapse, and act wisely even when the future is unclear. The mantra “See Clearly → Sort Facts → Accept Limits → Act Wisely” becomes your anchor when emotions, hopes, or fears blur perception.
