"Magic" used by ordinary people is actually "para-magic". In essence, it is a technique which involves controlling energy."
—Tutorial
Para-Magic is used and defined in Final Fantasy VIII as "magic used by regular humans". This shows that Limit Breaks and Sorceress power involve magic in a different way. The person who developed Para-Magic was Dr. Odine, by studying a Sorceress. This method is used by Balamb Garden and it involves manipulating energy and Drawing in specific spells from enemies.
Drawing is used to syphon magic from the many enemies across the world. It can also be used to steal Guardian Forces from more powerful enemies. When drawing one can either cast the magic drawn from the enemy, or stock it. Stocking allows for use at a later time, but there is a limit on how much magic can be stocked.
There are also areas all over the world that are infused with magic. These are called draw points and can be exploited to gain magic from highly sensitive areas. Some of them refill, some of them do not.
