working as a chemical engineer in Delhi when he realized he needed to
make some changes if he wanted to pursue a career he truly loved. This is
his story:
There is a “quiet” majority of company employees who harbour
an entrepreneurial ambition but who fail to garner sufficient
energy to push themselves in the direction of their passions. I was
no different, once upon a time. Having being bitten by the Mind
Mapping bug, I was contemplating quitting my job to pursue this
passion 24/7. However, with two decades of only regular job
experience behind me and no entrepreneurial experience, this was
by no means an easy decision to make and I had my set of doubts
and fears.
But it all changed on a quiet weekend when I decided to Mind
Map my challenge. I made a simple Mind Map with four
branches, as shown in the picture
opposite
.
In the first two branches (on the right), I analysed the pain I was
trying to avoid by not changing, and the pleasure I was getting by
continuing in the job. In the third branch,I identified the pain that
I would experience if I continued in my current job for long.
Finally, the last branch captured the pleasure that I would achieve
if I became a freelance trainer/consultant for Mind Maps.
