Mindstorming for the Masters
So, I am in Florida on a retreat this week. The sun is welcomingly warm. I am spending time looking at my own path to self-actualization, spiritual development and exploring my beliefs. As leaders I think it is important to identify our beliefs and how they impact our actions. Wow! What a week it has been!
Have you ever spent time getting the junk out of your closet? That's what this feels like...clearing out the junk that I have spent an entire lifetime accumulating between my ears.
I am calling this process "Mindstorming". It is a lot like "Brainstorming" in that I am listing the beliefs that I am becoming aware of. It is also similar to "Mindmapping" because I am trying to trace how I came to believe what I believe. Where did these beliefs come from? How did I accumulate them? Is one belief connected to another?
The resulting process has been a Mindstorm- the junk in my closet has been all stirred up, just like a bunch of desert dirt devils, as I sift and sort my beliefs. And, boy, is it ever dusty in here!
