STEP VI: USE YOUR MIND MAP AS A SPEECH!Your Mind Map is the raw material for your speech about your book. Get an audience and tell them what you have excavated in the preceding thirty minutes.
Do not bury your face in the Mind Map; dip into it to refer to points and then look at your audience whilst delivering your speech. This is great practice for building fluency, memory, and confidence.
NOTE: You have been given thirty minutes for the Power Browsing exercise, plus whatever time you need to deliver your speech.
The first five steps will need less time as you and your brain get used to the process, and as your vocabulary and general knowledge grow. Remember, this is not reading as we have done earlier, but browsing.
Your objective is to get a feel for the book.
The Mind Map done in Step VI can be inserted in the book, for future reference, at which time you could power browse again, and keep adding to your Mind Map.
Later, when you have time to read your book in depth, your Mind Map will be of immense value as it will have prepared you for what is to come.
