Mind Mapping & Treasure Maps $10
How can you get very far, if you don’t know who you are?
Winnie the Pooh
Mind Mapping is a method to find out Who You Are.
Treasure mapping is a method to find out What You Want.
Putting the two together as in the Who Are You© poster offers a highly visual, hands-on way of finding out who, what, where, why & how you make it happen!
Mind-mapping, like brain-storming, employ’s free-association of ideas, creating a "structure," that is visual fitting any situation.
These are strategies useful for organizing information, and generating ideas. They are used to create patterns, build connections, & establish associations between experience & new information, between known facts & new concepts, between parts of a concept or problem & its’ whole.
Mind-mapping’ begin with a center or nucleus. The issue. The question. The quest. The general idea. The topic. Even the problem-solving exercise, is placed in the center of the page.
What’s the question?
What do you know?
What do you want to know?
Main ideas are connected to the central topic by drawing lines from the center. Supporting ideas become "branches" off main ideas. Working outward from the center in all directions, the learner produces a growing, organized structure composed of key words, phrases, and images.
The map becomes a graphic representation of the knowledge.
The map is an exploration for the missing pieces.
It becomes questions for further exploration; both as a motivational technique and as a way of establishing benchmarks.
In the beginning was the word,
Then it became chiseled in stone, denoting good or bad.
I like work which has more neutrality so when mind mapping I do not get trapped in my own words. The core idea is Mind Map.
