2017 in Macro

As I started to share last week I am planning for 2017. So I am going to share the process I am using with you. Hopefully it will help as you look at 2017 for yourself. As with painting or writing sometimes we just need the big themes or ideas down on paper.

A mind map if you will:
  • What are the ideas, categories, streams of interest I need to cover?
  • What do I need to develop?
  • What do I need to add to the list that was not there this year?
  • What things or areas need to go?
  • What are the important categories?....................................Significant Other, Family, Employment or Career, Recreation/Hobbies, Faith, Learning and Personal Development and whatever else may fit.
  • You may also choose to be a little more specific in some areas say in "recreation" and hobbies you may come down to Holidays, sports, a specific hobby or daily fitness. Whatever fits for you.
A Mind Map is a Graphic Organiser which simply allows you get your thoughts down in categories, in a visual way that you can understand . Hence the term graphic means visual. For us older bodies it may be new, but it is very common in modern schooling to help children organise their thinking. So that is the object of our exercise to organise our thoughts quickly and succinctly with few boundaries. You just keep adding more layers from our 2017 centre.

Give it a go you never know where you will end up!
