    Default Natural Planning Model as MindManager map

    In an effort to be more systematic in my project planning I have translated DA's Natural Planning Model into a MindManager map. It is a straight copy of the model as shown on the GTD template card, plus a branch at the bottom showing some further information that Lisa Peake posted about reviewing projects (can't remember exactly where I found that bit). Run your cursor over the notes icons to reveal the full text. The map helps me stay consistent with GTD methodology as, when thinking larger projects through I build them onto its branches.

    I'm finding this item quite handy so I thought I'd share it.

    (By the way, everyone who benefits from mind mapping should acknowledge the contribution of the man who introduced the technique - Tony Buzan).

    Yes, but there wouldn't be much point because you wouldn't be able to see the embedded notes - just the headings.

    You could download the Mind Manager trial and take a look.

    Mindomo.com also can view MindManager files.

    While MindManager is a more sophisticated program, Mindomo.com is a great online version, the basic service is free.
