We all wish to be famous and be liked by one and all. This is a
natural and inborn trait in all of us. However, our habitual way
of thinking is, by far, the biggest stumbling block to our
progress. An overwhelming reason for being the kind of
personality that we are, invariably leads to lack of self-esteem
and self-confidence. We do have books by the legions, detailing
you on how you could become a powerful and pleasing personality.
But we need to go beyond 'Do's and Don'ts that these books
strongly advocate, by first understanding ourselves. This is
indeed, the starting point for making any desirable change in
us. We need to be aware of our true self, to bring in changes in
our behavior and thinking. Mere listing of certain right and
wrong set of behaviors to adopt or eliminate, cannot by
themselves help in changing our self. To gain a deeper
understanding of the 'inner' you and then working towards those
areas for improving and strengthening will render meaning to
your change process.
Helping you in such a voyage of self-discovery will be the
indispensable Mind Mapping tool. Using Mind Map, you can make an
inward journey into your inner self and analyze the largely
uncovered self. We can first turn the attention on to our self
by first analyzing our self-image: What do we think about
ourselves? Is that how others perceive us? Which are the areas
where you think there is a clear disconnect between image and
perception? Why do people see you the way they do? What are your
problem areas? Which are the areas where you excel?
Such a clear SWOT analysis in terms of emotional, physical,
psychological and social parameters will provide a comprehensive
layout of your core self. You can then explore the reasons
behind particular thought or behavior to find out the reasons
and causes for such behavior and attitude in us. By looking
inward in an honest and objective manner, we will be able to
uncover the unknown 'self' in us.
In such self-analytical process, Mind Maps can be your ideal
tool. You can draw an image of your self or just print boldly
your name at the center of a long and blank page, and form main
headings of the different dimensions of a human being -
physical, mental, emotional, social, moral, religious, and so
on. Taking each of these main heads, you can make a SWOT
analysis in each of the major areas of our life. When you have
explored each aspect in such a comprehensive manner, we will be
able to see the connection between your behavior and action. You
will be able to tie up the emotional reasons for displaying a
particular weak behavior. Also, you will find that your strength
in a specific area arises from your deep belief and commitment.
In this manner, you can relate the cause and effect of every
sphere of our life.
Based on your findings, you can then work out your likely main
objectives under each area and the required set of actions.
Exploring at length in this manner will provide the right
directions to pursue, align those areas for strengthening,
counteract a negative with a positive attitude and generally
lend a deeper meaning and significance for being the person that
you are right now.
Mind Map hence is an easy and powerful tool for understanding
your true self and bringing in the right changes in those needed
areas. By working on every aspect of your personality in a
desired direction, you can work your way to becoming a winning
personality. In this process, Mind Maps can serve as a mirror to
help project the real 'you' and shape you into building the kind
of winning personality you desire.
