Get the Most Out Of Your Work Flow With Mind Maps

When you have a full schedule and limited time to complete tasks on time you need to ensure you get the maximum out of your Work Flow Processes.

You need to organize yourself in such a way that you can get things done in an orderly manner so you are not working in circles.

For me there is five phases to organizing your Work Flow and when you use them with powerful visual software like The Mind Mapper USB you can become much more efficient in all that you do and get your day’s work done in less time and stress than may find now.

The Five Phases Of Mastering Your Work flow:

(1)Capture all your information in once central place and make this your “In Box” (Emails, Voice Mails, Notes, Task Lists – get these out of your Short Term memory use Mind Maps to create a central dashboard .

When you create a Mind Map as your central Dashboard you can ensure you have all pertinent information at your finger tips in a snap.

TRY THIS…..

Make A Mind Map Of Your Day to Day tasks, create this as a daily Map, or Weekly Map. When you create the Map place all tasks in separate nodes such as: Projects. Calendar, Next Actions, Waiting For. Attach Files and Hyperlinks to websites relating getting these completed in each node. You will find that if you spend a couple of minutes per day (preferably at the end of the day before) doing this you will save at least an hour per day and have a clear visual view of your day and what needs to be done.

(2)Once you have collected all your information in a Mind Map organize and process them :

IF IT IS NOT ACTIONABLE –
Lose it from your Map or place it in a sub Map for possible action later or reference later.

IF IT IS ACTIONABLE -
decide on your next action and where in the Map you will place these: Project (that you have a commitment to finish in that day), Calendar (actions that need to be completed on a specific date or time.

Next Actions (Actions to be done as soon as possible), Waiting For (actions and projects others are supposed to be doing which are related to your Work Flow.

When you have created these branches in your Map then create Sub Branches to the these main branches and break them down further (calls, errands, things to get) Add Branches for Longer horizon goals and values that influence you.

Add checklists that may be useful as needed (job description, event trigger lists, org charts etc..). Maintain a general reference filing system for information and materials that have no action but which need to be retrievable. Maintain an “On Hold” system for triggers of possible actions at later dates (Someday/Maybe lists, Calendar, Tickler).

Maintain support information files for projects as needed (can be kept in reference system or in pending area)

(3)Review: Calendar and action lists daily (or whenever you can possibly do any of them). Conduct a customized weekly review to clean up, update, maintain and advance your systems.

Review the longer horizon list of goals values visions as often as required to keep your project list complete and current.

(4)DO: Make choices about your actions based upon:

*What you can do,
*How much time you have,
*How much energy you have and then your priorities.

(5) Be Prepared: Stay Flexible by maintaining a “total life” action reminder system, always accessible for review, trusting your intuition in moment to moment decision making.

Ensure the best intuitive choices by consistent regular focus on priorities (What is the value to me of doing X instead of Y) revisit and recalibrate your commitments at appropriate intervals for the various levels of life and work.

When Using the Above You will find that you have increased your Work flow into a Smooth actionable Blue Print to Achievement!

Also You need to ensure that you have the Best Mind Mapping Software Available and For Me that has to be the Mind Mapper Professional USB!:

Perfect Your Presentations - Using Mind Maps

How many times do you see the following in presentations?

The Speaker prepares presentations with a few pages of notes and often transferred into a Power Point slide all made up of linear sentences.

They stand up behind the podium and start to read, (expecting their diligent audience to take 'proper notes'). They drone on monotonously at a pace enabling their audience to copy their words.

Drooping shoulders and heavy heads become more and more visible.

Is this method actually doing any good?

Basically: NO.

Words alone are not helping anyone in the audience understand let alone remember what the speaker has gone on about.

I have been in these types of Presentations many times and not only are they boring they are not presented in a way that is natural for the brain to comprehend (that’s why I find it hard to stay awake in them!)



That’s why Presentations need to show the information in a way that can be easily digested by the brain and in a visually informative way.

An EFFECTIVE PRESENTATION will include KEYWORDS, Lots of images with Color.

The Presentation will show clear Connections and Associations, by using these in Presentations you are triggering the audience imagination and ensuring they are absorbing what you are presenting to them.

These are the critical elements of successful Presentation but just how do we do this?

Using Mind Maps Provide Organization and Structure to your Presentation:

When creating your Presentation it is important that you Mind Map the Basics of you Maps first before you even begin to concentrate on the subject matter.

Mind Maps are perfect for structuring and organizing current ideas and plans in a memorable way for presenting to others.

When creating your Presentation you need to know your audience and what points you want to get across and also what they stand to benefit from your presentation.

When creating you Mind Map include Keyword branches like “Case Studies”, 'Analysis', 'Inspiration', 'Understanding' etc. When you create your Mind Map like this you will be able to turn the keywords and
ideas into a coherent order ensuring that you use hard data to back up any views or ideas that you may use in the presentation.

Ensure your central image incorporates the subject, while the branches should represent the subjects for discussion. By using a Mind Map, you will find your role in a wider context will be clearer, and will find it easier to stick to your subject as your thoughts will be less likely to wander off on a tangent.

STAND OUT! - use images and colors:
When creating your Presentation be sure to use plenty of images, colors and even symbols. By using these you are clearly getting your point across and the visual aspects make the presentation more “enlightening” and interesting.

And even if you are presenting a lot of information that is boring by using a Mind Map you can turn it into a memorable and colorful organized visually in a way the brain of the audience will remember.



So when creating your Mind Map ensure that your ideas lively up your presentation into a more interactive experience for those you are presenting to!.

Mind Mapping Software Creates Presentations For You!
With the latest Mind Mapping Software available in the market today there is a great selection of Mind Mapping applications that make creating presentations a snap!

Two of the Best Mind Mapping Software’s For Presentations are:

Tony Buzan's iMindMap V4:
Has a sensational NEW Presentation mode That Allow You To Create Stunning Presentations in Minutes Not Hours or Days! Design, create and deliver dynamic presentations within iMindMap. Impress, inspire, and inform your audience in a way they will have never seen before.

Standout and get your message remembered. Watch your Mind Maps smoothly animate and grow branch by branch. Wow your crowd by zooming in and out on branches, link direct to any files, websites or other Mind Maps, all from within your presentation.

Link to a spreadsheet, document, or even another presentation – NO PROBLEM It takes just seconds.

Never has it been so easy to create a professional presentation from start to finish. Say good bye to having to export to linear slide-show presentation tools.

Now you can do it all from within iMindMap Ultimate.



MindMapper 2009 Professional:

Be Assured Of What You Are Presenting:

Interaction with your audience is another key aspect to a successful presentation. This can be achieved by building up the Mind Map as you share your information with your audience and asking them to contribute any
ideas or thoughts to the map.

Also encourage your participants to take Notes in the form of their own individual Mind Maps on your presentation.

This requires the audience to think for themselves and encourage active participation; consequently the audience is more likely to get the most out of your presentation.

Mind Maps allow participants to break the linear tradition of note taking and helps them to make appropriate associations and absorb more information effectively.

When you are using the above in your Presentations you will also be more confident in yourself and the information you are presenting, making for a Memorable Presentation with winning Results!.

Until Next Time….Take Care & Happy Mapping!
