    Marie Pirker
    The document discusses different cycles of learning and development between the ego and the person. The ego's life cycle involves sticking to fulfillment or frustration in a restricted way without learning. Its learning cycle involves trial and error without changing emotional states. The person's life cycle involves empathetic resonance with the total situation. Their learning cycle is a feedback loop where learning in one cycle can alter actions in the next cycle. Examples are given to illustrate the basic cycles of the ego versus the basic cycles of the person.
