| A " 1000% !! " Mind Map |
One of the best ways of taking notes in real-time is by doing a mind map. As any Mind Map enthusiast knows, the note produced is just on one sheet of paper as shown above. Let me give you some ideas about how the above is done.
Firstly, prepare the central image. For me, I drew Tony's portrait as best as I could and inserted the words S-T-U-D-E-N-T to remind me of the fact that he was lecturing to more than 1100 students, teachers, lecturers and principals at Ngee Ann Polytechnic on 10 Nov 2001.
Secondly, I mentally prepared myself with all my training as a "Mind Warrior" as Tony calls us, to capture his lecture on just one sheet of paper. It is this type of mindset that I try to cultivate, nurture and encourage my course participants to adopt. Once the participants are able to see this vision at the end of my two-day training course, the value of this mindset is worth many times the cost of the training programme itself.
Thirdly, after capturing all the key words and pictures in real-time, I finally did some touch up of the "1000% Mind Map", adding more colour and groupings to further enhance the mind map in order for me to remember it for as long as I desire.
I hope you enjoy interpreting the mind map. It is quite simple. Let me know if you have problems doing it.

Hi Lim. Can you explain your mind maps and the content of each one in detail, explaining what the keywords mean etc. as that would be very helpful for me in seeing how you express things on the mind map and how you choose keywords.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
Did you ever have any difficulties with mind maps or not?
