Patience, patience, patience
First off, I woke up this morning with this song in my head and I really like it. Please enjoy while you read the rest of the post . . .
Okay, now down to business. With the beginning of a new year I decided to start a new scripture study plan, where I focus on a different study material each day of the week (for example, Tues = Preach My Gospel, Wed = D&C, Thurs = Conference Talks, etc). Friday is the day that I choose a specific topic and study it in depth. I've decided that each week I'll select a different topic and create a "Mindmap" for that topic as I study it, so that theoretically by the end of the year I'll have a guide for a total of 52 different topics. Think of all the talk potential! (Not that I'm wanting to give a talk, especially not 52 times ha ha).
I only just came up with the idea of creating a "Mindmap" each week so tonight I did my very first one, and it was so fun to make and much more enlightening than traditional scripture study that I thought I'd share the idea here in case anyone else was looking for a way to spice up their scripture study too. Below is the one I created tonight - basically you just start with the main topic/idea and then as you study everything you can about it you create a free-flow "spiderweb" linking all the different ideas that you find together. Pretty awesome, right?

Robyn, I think I'm going to try this mind map thingy.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome, and quite aesthetically pleasing if I might add... Thanks Rob.
ReplyDeleteThat is a fantastic song, Rob. Dan Brown suggested it for a cabaret for me a couple years ago but I never actually used it at that time. Just curious, was there anything that sparked your "Mindmap" topic? ;)
