GyroQ is Here!

I once expressed my excitement over the development of a MindManager add-in that will literally allow me to store away those spontaneous ideas at almost any time. Bridging the link between volatile ideas and recording them in MindManager posed many difficulities. This was especially true while I recorded notes in class. Yes I admit it...I don't use MindManager to take notes in class. (Note: I do go home and make a summary of the lecture with MindManager and link to specific paragraphs in OneNote using the MindManager to OneNote link) A random idea would often synthesize at the most inconvient times, class being just one example. However MindManager is the database that maintains just about everything going on in my life, including those random thoughts. So to capitalize on the idea it recquired a path with MindManager as the final destination. There was no direct route though; the idea often had to navigate through many mediums to find its way at the center of a mind map. Because this task was tedious I either had to put it on hold and possibly forget it, or interupt what I was doing to record it somewhere where I could only hope to find later. GyroQ now circumvents this pathway and lays down the direct path to MindManager (even with MindManager isn't open)

Distributing the burden of creative ideas I encounter everyday often requires work. However this task has been alleviated in thanks to GyroQ . GyroQ now quickly captures my random thoughts and places them into a MindManager map that I can easily access. I can redistribute these ideas later with some quick drag and dropping and no longer do I have to worry about losing my next creative thought just because I am working on something else. I adopted GyroQ to my daily routine just two days ago and I can't express the stress erasing capabilty GyroQ offers. I am now able to clear my mind more effectively and no longer lose focus during times of tense concentration.

As an individual with ADD it is easy to get off task, especially in class. Just yesterday I was sitting in Advanced Physiology and remembered I had to ask my sister about a song I heard on the radio. An idea or action that normally wouldn't be worth interupting class for is now easily recorded with GyroQ. Even though you may have moved on and redirected your attention towards class your brain will still record the idea, taking up valuable space and resoucrces that could be better applied to the task at hand. Your brain does this whether you like it or not! However, with a simple ctrl-Q (or an assigned tablet button in my case) GyroQ rushes to the rescue and allows you to rid the brain of this responsibilty. I quickly entered it in with GyroQ and basically allocate more brain power towards my current activity, taking notes.

The GTD philosophy is all about getting everything out of your head and into a reliable storage database where it will not get lost. GyroQ now does this for me and I honestly don't know how I operated without it!

I hope to share more news and discoveries of my adventures with GyroQ but for the time being you should check out the new GyroQ site for yourself! If you need an invite just ask me!
