Mind map is basically a diagram used to aid in representing words, ideas, tasks, etc that are related or radially linked to the whole main idea or topic. This is normally used to generate visualisible structure and classifying ideas in areas of study, organization, problem solving, decision making, as well as writing.

Mind mapping isn’t a new topic. However, many people still prefer the old traditional way of taking notes. Well, I have just got to admit the fact too. So, I have found a few videos on mindmapping to share.

Here’s one by Stephen Pierce. He did a summary of mind mapping. Simple to understand, and clear cut!

Main points:

• Identify your purpose
• Pull out related keywords to the purpose
• Put the book title, author and copyright date of material
• Write the chapter name on the branch
• Link the related things to the chapter
• Redraw the whole mindmap

This serves as a purpose for those who have no idea, or learnt before but didn’t get to use it. It is time to make a change.

I found this tool called iMindmap which is from Tony Buzan, that greatly helps in organizing thoughts and ideas, and as long as time is the concern, this tool greatly helps. They also have a trial version of the tool, iMindmap Download. Give it a try and see how much it is going to save you.

As promised in our previous blog post regarding the Passive Income Mastery, I will be covering the outline of what you will be getting from the call.

Earning tens of thousands of dollars monthly without working may not be YOUR idea of fun… but Jay has found it to be the most joyous, enriching and creatively stimulating thing anyone can do to amass a small or large fortune - without risk. No capital is required, either. That sounds cool, isn’t it?

Would you like to gain a short-course introductory education in how it’s done?

Would you also like to learn about nearly 25 actual, killer passive income deals Jay has personally engineered?

Would you even like to know specific, instantaneous ways you - yourself - could start setting up as many passive income streams as you possibly want?

OK. Then join Jay on a “Special Edition” broadcast he is doing next week of a presentation he originally created as the keynote for Harv Eker’s breakthrough “Never Work Again” conference. People paid $2000 a person to attend and hear Jay’s far reaching, breakthrough ideas.

Here’s what you will be getting from the fast-paced, 2 ½ hour adventure in ten, exciting Passive Income areas you can mine immediately:

For this one whole month, right after attending Jay Abraham’s seminar, I have been busy reviewing on my current projects, systems and stuff. That kept me busy, looking in and looking out of the limited view that I used to have.

And I happened to drop by a site and saw this optical illustration image. Take a good look at it, and think about what do you see from the image:

Have you ever given yourself too many excuses, be it in life or in business, and eventually ended up doing nothing? That is simply what a procrastinator does, and you can read about the graveyard for procrastinators. We made ourselves the victims instead or being responsible for our choices. Absolute Personal Responsibility or APR, is something that is within us, we have the choice of blaming others, as well as the choice to make a change.

As like what Robin Sharma had quoted, “I am the captain of my soul, I am the master of my faith”, and you have the power to dictate the change, because you have the power and the responsibility to your decision.

Here’s the video by Robin Sharma:

There are two kinds of don’t know that Seth has noted. Take a minute of thinking, how often have you been replying with “I don’t know” as an answer to questions. And you will tend to realize that your “I don’t know” answers will fall into 2 categories of reasoning.

And the real reasons behind these don’t know are either:

• Stuff you don’t know because you haven’t been taught it yet, or
• Fear or lack of interest

First Reason to “don’t know”

The first reason to “don’t know” is due to the fact that you have not been taught, or have the technical knowledge or skill to perform and complete the task.

As for the second reason of “don’t know” is due to the fact that it is not about technique or lack of the knowledge, but your fear or lack of interest to go ahead and perform the task.

As Seth had stated we can easily look for the answers for the first reason of “I don’t know”, because knowledge, skill and techniques can be learned. And more than often, books are good problem solver, as well as good teacher.

Books and teachers are in fact, from my humble point of view, can be act upon as a directional map, because at the end of the day, it is still up to the individual to devote time and effort to make things happen, practice and perfect, to go through the repeated process of trial and error, and accumulate the different experiences, to eventually the end of mastering the skill, and continuously update and upgrade.

In some point in time, we are bound to meet with opportunities in our business, career or life. And the decisions that we made for all these opportunities are going to be an impact in our life at a later stage.

It could be anything like a decision for career switch, a decision for business start up, a decision for joint venture and partnering, a decision to migrate with your spouse to another country, etc. There are so many opportunities and options as we walk through the different stages of our lives.

We are more than often at the junction of whether to proceed and take off from the point from where we are at to the point where we want to be, or a point where we would just stay where we are. It is a tough call for some. And it is a gamble to others.

As humans, we are always putting ourself at the mercy of temptation; the picture that we paint in our mind, that the grass is greener at the other end, or the persuasive sayings and opinions of others, or the emotion appeal that was created as a result of temptation, which all sums up to in putting our brain in an unfavorable condition to make the real decision and see the whole picture.

What is the missing piece of puzzle?

Are you happy with the way you currently live your life?Here is a little story that I would like to share with you:

There was a poor but happy and helpful farmer, though he lived in poverty, but that did not stopped him from trying to help others, and in fact he enjoyed doing so. Those that received help from him, were thankful to him, and the farmer was friendly in return.

And one day, he happened to saved a child, whom was in fact an angel in disguise. And due to his kindness, the angel decided to grant him one wish. So the angel asked the farmer “If I were to grant you one wish, what would you wish for?” The farmer said that “For all my life till this age, I have been living in poverty. It would be great, if I become a millionaire”. And yes, his wish came true.
