Hi Mr Chikwililwa, I am thinking of your question: "Where are their hopes, where are their goals,where are their dreams?". I think you are very, very smart. Thank you for the presentation. Thanks TEDx.

Thanks so much, I had thought of volumes I will have to cover to get tips on memory improvement skills, note taking and learning generally, but this an abridged presentation.

How can we use mind maps for problem solving? I've done some experiments - here's a short summary. I use the following three building blocks, which I can combine in different ways. Building block 1 - the sheet layout: I use an A4 sheet in landscape format and divide it in 3x3 boxes of equal size - there's no need for exactness and I do it without a ruler. Alternatively, I can use 3 columns and make boxes of different sizes - but at the beginning, 3x3 boxes are easier to handle. I fill the boxes in column 1, then in column 2 and then in column 3. Building block 2 - the box layout: I use each box for a simple small mind map. The size limit of the box will come as a surprise, but it has a number of advantages which I will describe in a moment. Instead of mind maps, I can use diagrams, ordinary text with indentations or math terms. Building block 3 - thinking tools: I can use thinking tools as topics for the small mind maps, to stimulate my thinking about the problem, like: What are key questions? What are my options? How can I split the problem into smaller parts? I find a personal collection of thinking tools very useful - I have a corkboard over my work table and can access dozens of tools and stimuli with one glance. For me, this process has four main advantages. First, a conventional mind maps works best with a couple of main branches of equal size. In problem solving however, I often want to develop only one or two branches over many steps, and this leads to an unsymmetrical, unbalanced mind map. Secondly, moving from one box to the next needs a moment of orientation - where do I stand, and what can I do next? This re-orientation happens much more often in the 3x3 layout than in an ordinary mind map. Thirdly, I find it easier to reflect on a previous thought in a new box than in a branch of an ordinary mind map. Fourth, the combination of mind maps and thinking tools seems very powerful to me. Some remarks: Depending on handwriting size, paper size and personal taste, we can experiment with 2x2, 3x3 or 4x4 boxes. As a fourth building block I'm using a zettelkasten to organize my sheets - but that's outside the scope of this comment.

very cool. I found mind mapping apps for mac anybody it may be of use.

[@kyshn6085]

it's usful thnx

[@jonzachary2]

The problem with this is thought, I was super excited to begin my journey exploring mind maps because i have this project which encompases many cross references i thought mine maps would help me with, i thought it would organize them in a beautiful pattern, but if i have one branch extended out three branches away, on one side of the mind map, which i want to cross reference with a topic or three on the other side, because the point of the project is to see how parallel realms connect, like certain philosophes found from music to say three other realms via common denominators that the project highlights, i am finding it difficult to present it in a manner that is of chronological order yet still pays homeage in the moment as it's being understood, can someone direct me to a phenomena that could help me make this a beautiful snowflake?

[@kaderyarou3288]

Sorry for the english errors as I m not a native. imagination = tasting = smelling= touching = hearing ? What about replacing Imagination by sensation (or feeling or representation or perception). As I was reading the comments of @Mark William North and @pilanceboil, I thought may be we are not just thinking in image as picture but in general as representation (picture,touch,odour,sound,taste...) from your 5 senses. Like Helen KELLER, deaf and mute who learned the word 'water' by touch or how we can remember the odour of a meal or a perfume long time after. The challenge now is to thing technics/methods to make association of touch,odour,taste to thing we want to learn

[@Wingedsou]

someone could tell me how to find key words in a text?

[@joaovianeidasilva4310]

In your question the key word is "key". Key is what will open the doors of you imagination.

Qonita BadegesTM Right, Instituional education only makes you just knowledgeable enough to work basic jobs for the country’s economy, nothing more. Most Privately educated students generally go on to become mid level managers and some upper management, perhaps with college degrees. The rest are ‘groomed’ to become heirs to the captains of industry, only accessible with family connections or social connections deals. The outliers in the data are the self made business and social media/personalities. Even these are suspect and are likely owing someone for their success.
