The map
A realized center isn't the one that escaped the lower colors. It's the one that can reach into any of them on purpose — into anger when a boundary is honestly needed, into fear for the information it carries, into grief to honor a loss — and return. Bound by none.
Hawkins claimed roughly 78% of people calibrate below the 200 line, 18% between 200 and 400, and around 4% at 500 or above. The scale is logarithmic — one band is an order-of-magnitude shift in available energy, not a few points. Take this as his framing, not as fact.
