What do you do if you only have a black pen - Mind Map of course!

nsaa20oct09.png

Here is a summary mind map of a monthly networking group I went to last night

I left my bag in the car that had my different coloured pens and only had the Sofitel Hotel's black pen

 

The Mind Map is still effective as it summarises the key information and gives me an overview of each of the speakers on that night.

 

Using images and symbols can help enhance the memory aspects and I could colour it in (using Highlighters or Stabilio pens) if I needed to or had the time.

He will be doing it with Dale Elliot a fellow wheelchair adventurer Andreas talked abou dream takers who create obsticals to any dream and how to turn those obsticals into opportunities. You can remove anxiety by just focussing on the right future using your imagination the final speaker was Karen Schmidt on how to master the balancing act between work and life as a speaker The three s's are Success, Sanity and SpeakingShe asked us how do we define success as speakers (Money, Choice, Travel, Audience Ah-ha moments)What are our habits and roles other than speakingand to look at life like a wheels with six segments - Career, Money, Relationships, Health, Mind and Leisure And to ask questions on each of these that help us assess how balanced we are.:- For leisure What is on our "Used to Do list" - things that we enjoyed in the past?  So you can see how easy it is to translate a Mind Map into a full text summary or article - I have only done a brief summary that took only 8 minutes.  What have you found works when you do a Mind Map of a meeting??
