This will make you buy an iPad…or at least enjoy the one you have.
I’ll admit, I used my iPad only when I had to, but it wasn’t a necessary tool. That was until my friend Artie Davis introduced me to a game-changing application called iThoughts. It’s genius. I’m an introverted person, but I’m an extroverted thinker, so this program works well for me. I often brainstorm by drawing out the situation. With iThoughts, I’m able to sketch my thoughts into an easy to follow format. When I see it on “paper” it makes more sense.
I use iPad iThoughts to:
- Create structure
- Brainstorm projects
- Visualize a complex organization
The picture is an example. Our organizational structure at Grace can be confusing. We don’t have the clearest lines. Sketching it out with iThoughts help me see it clearly, but also is helping me dream and plan for future growth. (I’ve got another version of this diagram that has some of the ideas I have for future development of our staff and structure.)
What other apps for iPad or iPhone would you recommend to increase efficiency and productivity?
I use Evernote everyday , work and personal organization with my new GTD workflow. And of course Dropbox keeps everything in sync. Lastly, have you tried Text Expander? Desktop app for Mac.
Not familiar with Dropbox. Will check it out.
I am not a tech geek! Atleast I learning about such things from your post. Thanks for sharing Ron!
Ha! Thanks!
