- 46. HOW TO READ A MIND MAP Zeopard.com @JennieVickers
- 47. HOW TO READ A MIND MAP Zeopard.com @JennieVickers MIND MAP CREATED FROM: 'LEAD WITH WISDOM’ BY MARK STROM CHAPTER 4 - CONVERSATION PAGES 84-85
- 51. Where on the clock is Disabilities? Zeopard.com @JennieVickers
- 52. 1.! Take a blank piece paper A4 size or larger. Preferably use a paper pad.! ! ! 2.! Use the paper landscape! ! ! 3.! Start in the centre. HOW TO MIND MAP Blank paper allows 360° of freedom to express the full range of your cortical skills, whereas pre-drawn lines restrict the natural flow of your thoughts. ! ! Words and images have more lateral space, so they don’t bump into margins as quickly. ! ! Thoughts start in the centre of our mental world. The Mind Map page reflects this. ! Zeopard.com HOW WHY @JennieVickers
- 53. 4.! Create a central image that personally represents the topic about which you are writing / thinking.! ! 5.! - Use at least three colours! ! ! ! - Keep the height and width of the central image to approx 2” or 5cm! ! ! - Leave the image open (do not! use a frame)! HOW WHY Zeopard.com ‘A picture is worth a thousand words’. It opens up associations, focuses the thoughts, is fun and results in better recall. ! ! -! Colours stimulate the right cortical ! activity of the imagination as well as ! capturing and holding attention. ! ! -! This size gives plenty of space for ! the rest of your Mind Map. The ! image has its own unique shape. ! ! -! A frame may make the centre a ! monotony of shape. A free image is ! more memorable & enjoyable. ! ! @JennieVickers
- 54. The main themes around the central image are like the chapter headings of a book. ! With a Mind Map on “My Holiday” one of the themes could be ‘TRANSPORT’.! ! • This word is printed in CAPITALS! • Place on a line of the same length, one word per line! • The central lines are thick, curved and organic ie like your arm joining your body, or the branch of a tree to the trunk! • Connect directly to the central! image HOW WHY Zeopard.com The main themes, connected to the central image on the main branches, allow their relative importance to be seen. ! ! • One word per line is to catch Key Words only ! • Printing (versus cursive writing) allows the brain to photograph the image and thus gives easier reading and more immediate recall ! • Word length = line length. An extra line disconnects thoughts, whereas the same length accentuates the connection! • Curved lines give visual rhythm and variety and so are easier to remember, more pleasant to do, and less boring! Thicker central lines show importance.! • Connected to the image because the brain works by association – not by separated disconnected lists @JennieVickers
- 55. HOW TO MAIN BRANCHES As practice for drawing main branches: Draw two more main theme branches on the right side and put words onto the lines words connecting to the central image you have drawn for the Mind Map about “My Holiday”:! ! ! ! - DESTINATION?! ! - PACE?! ! Zeopard.com @JennieVickers
- 56. Add other main theme branches, by arranging other ‘chapter headings’. ! Remember to PRINT the word! and make it fit the line. ! ! So all your main themes stand out clearly, and can trigger your subsequent connecting thoughts. HOW WHY Zeopard.com @JennieVickers
- 57. Start to add a second level of thought. These words or images are linked to the main branch that triggered them. ! Remember, as before:! • Lines connect but are thinner! • Words printed but may be lower case Your initial words and images stimulate associations. Attach them to whatever word or image triggers them. Allow the ‘random’ movement of your thoughts, you do not have to ‘finish’ one branch before moving on. ! ! • Connected lines create relationships and a structure. They also demonstrate the level of importance, as from a branch to a twig. ! • The size and style of the letters provide additional data about their importance and meaning. Zeopard.com HOW WHY @JennieVickers
- 58. Add a third or fourth level of data as thoughts come to you.! Use images as much as you can instead of, or in addition to, the words.! Allow your thoughts to come freely, meaning you ‘jump about’ the Mind Map as the links and associations occur to you. Add some of your own branches, words and images to this Mind Map. Your brain is like a multi-handed ball catcher. The Mind Map allows you to catch whatever ‘thought ball’ is thrown by your brain. Zeopard.com HOW WHY @JennieVickers
- 59. ADDING MORE BRANCHES Zeopard.com Draw further main branches:! -ACCOMMODATION! -MONEY! -ACTIVITY! and now add some sub branches and even sub sub branches onto those new main branches ! Remember the rules. @JennieVickers
- 60. Add a new dimension to your Mind Maps. Boxes add depth around the word or image. To make some important points stand out. ! ! The outlines will create unique shapes, such as those you find in clouds, and will aid your memory. ! • They can also show connection between branches by using the same colour outline ! • These provide immediate visual linking. They can also encourage follow-up and remind you of action you need to take. Sometimes enclose branches of a Mind Map with outlines in colour. ! • Enclose the shape of the branch! • Use different colours and styles! • Add arrows and codes between ! • Information to show the connection! Zeopard.com HOW WHY @JennieVickers NOW ADD PICTURES ONTO BRANCHES OR NEAR BRANCHES
- 61. Make each Mind Map a little more ! ! ! ! ! Have fun! Add a little humour, exaggeration or absurdity wherever you can. Your eye / brain will be attracted to your Mind Map.! It will be easier to remember.! It will be more attractive both to you and others. ! ! Your brain will delight in getting the maximum enjoyment from this process. Your brain will then learn faster and recall more effectively. ! ! Planning becomes! more enjoyable. artistic colourfulbeautiful imaginative dimensional Zeopard.com HOW WHY @JennieVickers
- 62. Finish off your first Mind Map with: • Colour • Humour • Dimension • Imagination Zeopard.com FINISHING YOUR FIRST MAP @JennieVickers
