A phenomenological framework of the human perception of time identifies the Future, Past, and Present perspectives of mind. The framework is visualized as a triangle, with Future, Past, and Present mental constructs serving as an anchor at each of the three corners. The triangular plane between them represents a continuum of relative intensity for each of the constructs. Each blend of intensity in the three constructs itself corresponds to a unique set of the fundamental values and behavioral characteristics that are driven by the mental characteristics. Within this temporal framework, there is a contextual assignment of an external descriptive and informative quality to any person, group, or object—based on relative and/or absolute intensities of each mental construct—that can be used with a high level of confidence in any number of ways to interact better with the object.
