Make a difference

I have recently started using this software – and after the recent updates/ redesign done, I must say, this is terrific. Drawing Mindmap’s on the computer is very close to the ones drawn on paper.  I rarely recommend a software, but this definitely is one of those for those who are keen to try mindmapping- and want to use a software to help them out.

This version has been developed ground up by Buzan himself along with the team- to ensure it adheres to the original vision and the rules of creating a mindmap.  Try it out. I am sure you will love it.

I am sure you will not be disappointed.

Singapore -24-27 March 2008

One of my key goals in 2008 was to get certified in Buzan’s Mindmapping.   It gets me a step closer to my longer term goal to be a trainer and help people achieve their untapped potential.  And the sheer opportunity to do this is amazing.

I am currently undergoing the certification course to become a “Certified Trainer” and hope to start some level of training in the near future.  This also gets me the learning to a)officially and b) correctly train people in this fantastic technique.

Nevertheless, over the last 2 days we have had a series of thoroughly enjoyable training sessions which have taught me some new things about Mindmapping- which I had not practiced earlier.   Working with Henry and his team has been an interesting experience & I am looking forward to the rest of the 3 days to complete this.

I wanted to share this interesting output. I have absolutely no art background and when we were asked to draw a portrait it obviously had me running for cover.  But with some great ideas, and simple techniques I managed to generate the drawing below. The better looking one is the original 😉 (in case you are wondering).

I am obviously delighted.  The exercise to Juggle Balls was a completely different story!  Will get there as well in the near future 🙂

All said & done, I hope to complete this certification done by the end of this week. 

Wish me some luck 😉

This is a mindmap that Ryna made earlier last year. Was just cleaning my computer when chanced upon this mindmap.  Mindmaps are a great way of capturing notes & remembering them. I will update these mindmaps for books I read.

Part of my 2008 goals is to get certified by the Buzan Institute as a certied Buzan Trainer. Let us see how that goes amongst all the things that I have identified as go-do’s for this year.
