Mind Mapping


Some time back my sister wrote about few tips to increase your brain power. You can find it here.

I was immediately hooked on to mind mapping.

A mind map is a graphical way to represent ideas and concepts.
In a mind map, as opposed to traditional note taking or a linear text, information is structured in a way that resembles much more closely how your brain actually works. Since it is an activity that is both analytical and artistic, it engages your brain in a much, much richer way, helping in all its cognitive functions. And, best of all, it is fun!

One of the other tip to boost your brain power is to create a list of 100 things of something, anything.

I combined these 2 techniques and doodled a mind map of about 100 topics to blog about in Potpourri.



Say I am clever now, pretty please :-)

  2. I like to use the word 'thought mapping' instead of 'mind map' though the word 'mind mapping' is prevalent to connote the activity you exemplified. There is nothing fixed about the mind as is the chaos in the quantum world. I look forward to see your hundred articles. some of them may coincide with the topics in the your mind map but for a creative person like you ii is impossible to stick to the original plan :-) In any ways the diversity and spread of your thoughts is arresting...
