Mind Map®

I have been involved with knowledge management technology that draws its underlying concept on mind map for many years. However, only recently I got interested with mind mapping the original way after attending a training. I'm good at writing notes... or so I thought. They are full with sentences and lists. Even after trying mind map, sometimes I tend to put a phrase on my mind map branches. It took a lot of practice to change that habit. I still have to tell myself to use keywords only. Below is my summary of Chapter 10: The Guiding Principles from The Mind Map® Book and Division Four: Synthesis of the same book using mind map.

Division Four: Synthesis from The Mind Map® Book

I find mind mapping to be therapeutic. It focuses the mind especially if I want a beautiful mind map, and I do love drawing. It makes revision easy. I have read many books in the past but I can't remember most of the contents. I'm going to go through my old books and start mind mapping :) I can't vouch for its effectiveness during examination though because I mind map for personal revision purpose and not to study for exams.
