Paul Foreman's Mindmaps


Mind Maps Home - www.mindmaps.moonfruit.com

In my previous blog entry I blogged about using the opensource free program, freemind, for mindmapping on a PC. I’ve used mindmaps for studying and revising for exams for many years now. I’ve also used mindmaps, from a graphics viewpoint, as a feature on a couple of scrapbook layouts, making the layout very personal.

On remembering freemind - which I’ve only just re-used this morning, I also went searching for freemind mindmap examples out there, and found a site called www.mind-mapping.co.uk/ which provides quite a few links to examples out there.

Now, I’m normally a firm believer that a mindmap is a very personal thing - it’s all about creating one for yourself - I can’t share somebody else’s - although past course tutors have tried giving me them as revision notes. But it’s not the same unless you’ve actually gone and created the whole thingee yourself.

Unless you’re Paul Foreman, that is. As an illustrator his website (linked above) shows some absolutely stunning examples of his interpretation on concepts like peace, declutter, quick fixes, choices, and many others. They’re worth checking out! And you can download them too.

He also has a good motivational books reading list, and his Quick Fixes mindmap page gives you quick exercise explanations (plus the mindmap) towards ways to make you happier.

Hi Michelle, I agree with your take on mindmapping and the creative but personal use of it. Here are some examples I created with my own software. I have used it strictly personally for the past 14 years. Before that, I wrote everything down I wanted to keep. Now I can recollect all I need for new maps, including links and navigation, in one click. BTW here is the background story: http://www.selfgrowth.com/articles/Every_Man_A_Spiral_Galaxy.html
