ZEF: Our topic for this episode is: “USE ONLINE TOOLS TO MIND MAP YOUR VISION BOARD!” 
Yes, this is part 3 of our 4 episodes dedicated to the Vision Board and Mindmapping theme. One method that can be helpful in putting together a digital vision board can be mind mapping.

LIRONE: Joining us today is our guest, Mary Joyce who is also known as “The Resources Queen.” Welcome to the show Mary! We are excited to have you here today.

MARY: Thank you Lirone! It's great to be here. 

ZEF: So good to have you back again with us Mary! I can’t wait to see what you have to share since you are “The Resources Queen” and I am sure you have super savvy tools that you can share with us today. 

SONDRA: So Mary, do you use a vision board? Have you ever used digital vision boards & do you like them? If YES - Which one have you used?

MARY:  I have been using vision boards since 2008 - the paper kind - you know where you have tons of magazines, scissors & glue & I still make a couple of those a year to map out my goals & vision for the future. I've only recently starting using the digital version as it saves resources & you can add to them over time & alway find the image/item you want.The tool I use on my iPhone is Jack Canfield Vision Board. Visually its beautiful with beautiful quotes & affirmations plus its super easy to use.

TOOL TALK & TIPS

ZEF: Lirone, you, just like me, enjoy the convenience of a digital board so, what online tools do you use to create your digital vision board? Does it also include digital mind mapping tools?

LIRONE: I use Xmind for mind mapping services, but I have to admit I’m not fixed on one vision board tool, I still try and look for the right one. So, sometimes we can do a great job improvising our vision board using things we already own.

ZEF: Sondra, digital tools give you more options, more space to play. Do you find you use digital ones in the same way you use hard copy ones?

SONDRA: I feel that hard copy tools are for personal use, and digital is for collaborative use. I love working with others on things. Coggle is a great tool to invite others and make changes. It is also more free-flowing because of the ability to make changes whenever I want. We can build our visions together.

ZEF: I love DreamItAlive.com or Instagram for my digital mind mapping tools. And I think you have to LOVE videos for making your vision board come to life. This is great storytelling!

LIRONE: What about you Mary? How do you use mind mapping in your own business? Is there a specific tool that you would like to review, talk about, or recommend?

MARY: I use mind maps for everything from creating programs, training, blog posting, and project management. I just love them as it allows me to get all my thoughts out in one place - then expand on each of them.

SONDRA: Bookmarking stuff is simple but effective. If you don't save it you forget where it was. Snap a photo. Quotes. Use for background. Keep them in front of you. I used an app that finds random supportive mindfulness-based images to pop up throughout the day on my computer screen or other devices.

LIRONE: Do you get people to use mind maps?

MARY: I introduce them to Trello. In fact I use Screencast to show them how to use it. I use one tool to show them how to use another tool.  

RESULTS:

ZEF: You can harness the power and reach of a colorful vision board like on Instagram! It has a wonderful SOCIAL component that is shareable and viewable instantly. You can use hashtags to connect with other dreamers and visionaries.
 LIRONE: I can say I have always used my phone’s programs as a type of vision board- for example:
  • I use the calendar option to notify me with elevating sentences or personal aspirations so I can look at them a few times a day.
  • My screen shot shows places I want to live in or dreams I want to fulfill.

SONDRA: There are so many mind mapping tools out there to use it is hard to choose one. There is no right or wrong one for everyone to use, you just have to choose which one is best for you. 

MARY: My favorite tool is Xmind, just the free version, & even include in my business resources guide that I give to businesses who want to systemize and run their business effectively. I also use them as notes for teleseminar/webinar trainings/interview to ensure I cover everything. Especially with conversational interviews.
