Mind Garden Benefits

A couple of unexpected things I'm finding with the Mind Garden that I find really useful/interesting:

1. It facilitates a new workflow and process that breaks up my habits and patterns, making me aware of new ideas.

2. Part of that workflow is now queuing ideas I come across in Roam/Evernote (I use both) that I want to plant in my garden. I'm just tagging things currently that I can review and develop.

3. Deciding what notes go into my garden is a different criteria that is far more open, flexible, and quicker than things I would blog about or write articles on.

  • In other words, what are notes I would find helpful that I want to have quickly accessible for myself and to share?
  • What are concepts I want to start working on that I have forgotten about or let languish?
  • What things do I repeat a lot that if I put into a note form in my garden would save me time?

4. It allows for a staging ground to develop ideas. I came across an old note in Evernote I'd forgotten about yesterday and was blown away by the concept and its relevance for work I'm doing now. So now I can pull it into the garden to help keep it "top of mind" and more visible so I can begin weaving it into other things.

5. This makes me think that I should keep some kind of upward limit on the plants in my garden so I can truly tend them all.
