Murphy’s Law

$5.00

Murphy’s Law IQ Matrix explores how to become aware and prepare for the consequences of Murphy’s Law and the impact it has on our lives. Murphy’s Law states that whatever can go wrong, will go wrong, at the worst possible time, all of the time. Many people will naturally interpret this law as a pessimistic view of life. That, however, couldn’t be further from the truth. Murphy’s Law is built upon the solid principles of forward-thinking. It is designed as an early warning mechanism to help us prepare effective contingency plans for when things don’t work out as expected.

Becoming aware of Murphy’s Law will help you to plan ahead and make the best of the circumstances you face. This mind map explores how anything can go wrong; how nothing ever goes right; how everyone always knows what you don’t, and much more. 😉

Who is this map for?

  • Anyone who struggles emotionally when things go unexpectedly wrong.
  • Anyone who would like to be better prepared for setbacks and adversity.
  • Anyone who wants a quick reference guide for understanding Murphy’s Law.

“If anything can go wrong, it will go wrong, at the worst possible time, all at once.”  Unknown

Here is a quick breakdown of each branch of the Murphy’s Law mind map.

  • Murphy’s Law: Each branch of this mind map highlights various aspects of Murphy’s Law. Familiarize yourself with these variations of the law, then prepare contingency plans to handle these circumstances as they arise. It would, of course, be impossible to think that we could prepare for absolutely everything that could go wrong. We can, however, at the very least, be mentally prepared for circumstances that don’t go our way. Below are just a handful of the many examples taken from Murphy’s Law.
    • “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.”
    • “Nothing ever gets better or has a straightforward solution.”
    • “Always every solution will breed new and greater problems.”
    • “Whenever life seems at its worst, it ultimately gets even worse.”
    • “Everyone always knows what you don’t.”

This map provides a roadmap and framework for planning ahead and making the most of problems, setbacks, and the challenges you will face as you work toward your goals. Referencing it regularly and committing it to memory will help you to embed these concepts and ideas into your subconscious mind.

A mind map, of course, does this beautifully because it mirrors the synaptic connections made in your brain as you try to establish new habits of thought and behavior. It brings together key concepts and ideas that help your brain to fully integrate and process this information. The brain, subsequently, rewires itself as it attempts to establish new habits of mind. It’s an ideal tool for creating lasting change and transformation.

Stick with these principles, memorize, and incorporate them into your life, and you will be better prepared for the challenges, setbacks, problems, and adversity that life throws your way as you work toward your goals.
