Looking Back On A ThoughtMap

Back in 2000 I came up with this simple Thought­Map to explain the ideas that were driv­ing my faith, writ­ing and research (here’s a larger ver­sion). The exer­cise helped me udner­stand both where I had come from and why cer­tain topics kept jump­ing out in my reading.

But look­ing back now, the map feels tired (not just the dodgy graph­ics and text). It’s time to try and draft a new one, which if last exper­i­ence holds true, will take a few weeks.

In the mean­time, I’m keen to hear if anyone else has recently tried this sort of exer­cise and what the res­ults where. As always, feel free to leave com­ments, emails or smoke signals.
