- 19. Your Assignment due at the end of the quarter! 1. Get a bench mark of your listening skill and your ability to create a thinking environment. Take the online assessment at www.timetothink.com and reflect in writing on the results. 2. For the next 4 weeks keep a journal about “listening.” How has your ability to listen improved? Have you stopped solving others problems, and given them a chance to solve their own? What was your experience of that? What seemed to be different for them as a result? 3.

Notes de l'éditeur
- Our brains like to create order out of the chaos of the data coming into them, to make links between information so that our lives make more sense. We feel more comfortable surrounded by order, we feel better inside symmetry, where we can see how everything is connected. Thus we are constantly making links between maps to form new metamaps. I just got a new phone. When I first got it all the gestures and shortcuts were unfamiliar to me. With repetition, however, my mind got hardwired to the task and that frees up my brain for higher-level tasks. Our mind forms mental maps. You can tell when you are going through this process yourself because you stop speaking and start picturing concepts in your mind. You can tell when someone else is doing this because their eyes get glazed, they reflect and they often look off into the distance. When we are processing complex ideas we tap into our visual center: we see ideas as flashes in our mind’s eye. We’ve all had the feeling of that sudden “aha” moment. It’s a moment when various ideas that were not linked together before come together to form a new idea. This is the moment of creation of a new map. When we create a new map, we feel motivated to do something, and our face and voice change. Ask people if they have had that experience—where coming up with a great idea was exciting, energizing, motivating? Ask people when and where do they notice that they get these ideas? If you want to move forward in some area in your life—at school, at work, at home, how do you create this new map in your brain?
- To get any kind of committed action, people have to think through things themselves. People need to figure out the connections in their mental map that is going to work for them.
- Ask the question: Who has done a mind map before??
- The Rational is Overrated
- Remember David Rock said “Attention changes the brain.”
- Focus Ecstasy Clarity Sense that it is doable Time disappears Feel a part of something larger Work for its own sake What is your set point for challenge and skills? What do you need to do to get into flow? Do you need to develop your skill? Do you need to develop the challenges?
