Free Goal Setting Mind Map Brainstorm
This template presents a "Goal Setting Mind Map" designed to help users set SMART goals and brainstorm ideas. The central element of the mind map is a blue circle labeled "State your primary topic", from which several branches extend.
One set of branches leads to five colored rectangles, each representing a component of the SMART goal framework: "Specific," "Measurable," "Attainable," "Relevant," and "Time-bound." Each rectangle includes a brief explanation of what that component entails (e.g., "Specific: Explain the particular area being worked on") and smaller nodes for "Use visuals for supporting details" or "Any supporting detail is important."
To the right, a "Next Steps" section provides a structured table with columns for "Action Item" and "Deadline," allowing users to define concrete steps and their timelines. It also includes an "Add final resolution" row.
Below the main mind map, two instructions guide users: "1 Do a mind map marathon!" which advises setting a time limit for brainstorming, and "2 Build your diagram faster! Right-click on a shape and choose Enable Quick Flow." Overall, this template is a comprehensive tool for organizing thoughts, defining SMART goals, and planning actionable next steps within a visually intuitive format.
