An IQ Matrix is in the simplest terms a learning aid that helps simplify concepts and subject areas. It basically categorizes information into easily digestible chunks, segments and pieces that help assist with memory, recall and the retention of the information you are learning. An IQ Matrix is not a mind map, even though it is at times described as a mind map. The reason for this description is that it most closely resembles a mind map in shape and form. However, an IQ Matrix is much more than just a mind map. In fact it was originally built upon the foundations of mind mapping, concept mapping and flow-charting. Across the page you will find a brief definition of each map type. “An IQ Matrix is in the simplest terms a learning aid that helps simplify concepts and subject areas.” A flowchart is a schematic representation of a process that has a start and finishing point. It is used to represent a series of steps that lead to a certain objective or goal. A concept map is a diagram that shows the relationship amongst more than one concept using connector words and arrows. It is used as a tool that helps to unlock connections and associations between different thoughts and ideas. A mind map is a diagram representing ideas, concepts and words that are arranged around a central image or key idea. It is used to structure, classify, visualize and at times generate ideas for the purpose of organizing information, solving problems and making better decisions. A mind map essentially pieces together a subject into effective segments or chunks to help aid memory and recall. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 5 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Benefits of an IQ Matrix There are a number of benefits that you will derive from using an IQ Matrix to help you learn a topic or subject of interest. Here I list these benefits in no particular order: Improves capacity to unlock hidden ideas and concepts resulting from the interconnection of individual pieces and keywords. Improves your capacity for creative association. Because an IQ Matrix is basically an interconnected structure that links all ideas into a “Big Picture” overview of a topic, this naturally tends to improve our capacity to associate concepts and ideas with other concepts and ideas in unique ways. This subsequently encourages creative association while stimulating unique insights, thoughts and answers. Improves capacity to remember related pieces of information that are organically connected and associated using pathways, arrows and images. Improves imagination helping you see and envision the topic you are studying in a new and original way. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 6 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Improves concentration ensuring your brain is no longer bored to death with linear black and white information. Instead your brain is stimulated with colors, images, connections and unique patterns that form natural associations between concepts and ideas, naturally improving your levels of concentration and focus. Improves speed of learning and recall because the human brain learns best when learning is fun, creative, colorful and stimulating. Provides overview of topic areas for easy reference, while encouraging photographic recall and comparison thinking. Because everything within an IQ Matrix is connected to everything else, this naturally allows your brain to compare and make intelligent links between a variety of different ideas and concepts that are presented within the map. Also because you’re seeing a “Big Picture” overview of the topic area, you can easily discern and reference the areas that are most relevant to your current needs. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 7 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Photographic memory is triggered as a result of the connections, colors, images and associations that are created while you are reading an IQ Matrix. In fact there’s no better visual way to learn information and ideas then this because it naturally mirrors how the human brain thinks and functions. Outlines key areas concisely providing ONLY actionable points, concepts and ideas. Each IQ Matrix only pieces together the most important ideas and information about a specific topic. You therefore only get precise actionable steps that you can immediately put to use in your own life. There’s no fluff here, just concrete actionable information that will have the biggest impact on your life. Outlines key areas clearly for further analysis and research. Because each IQ Matrix is very precise, it’s difficult to go into a lot of depth about a specific topic segment. However, the topics have been designed in such a way that they allow you to simply take an area and conduct your own research if you desire to learn or know more. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 8 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Each IQ Matrix is easy to follow and process as the topics are designed in a common sense manner allowing you to get an indepth overview of what you need to master in each topic area without burdening you with the unnecessary details that most people will never really need to know. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 9 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step IQ Matrix and the Brain An IQ Matrix has been designed as a learning aid which can dramatically enhance and accelerate your learning ability. Organically structured, it incorporates fundamental scientific based principles that naturally mirror the brain’s functions and processes. Studies have shown that the human brain is stimulated into action by images, colors, feelings, emotions and by associations and connections. This subsequently triggers the incredible process of memory and recall. On the right you will find some interesting facts about the human brain — about how it learns naturally, effortlessly and easily. The human brain learns best when… “An IQ Matrix has been designed as a learning aid which can dramatically enhance and accelerate your learning ability.” Thinking in pictures and colors. Making connections between ideas. Creating associations with existing knowledge and information. Categorizing information into groups, chunks and related segments. Remembering clear images, colors and vivid bright concepts and ideas. All the above facts about the brain are closely aligned and intertwined with the IQ Matrix design. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 10 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Learning How Children Learn Have you ever watched in amazement how easily children learn new concepts and ideas? The reason why children are so incredibly proficient during these early years is because they utilize all of their senses, they cultivate an optimistic attitude, they make learning fun and exciting, they turn everything into pictures using colors and shapes, and they constantly form associations and connections with existing knowledge and information. Is it really surprising that children are extremely creative and imaginative? Don’t you think that the way children naturally learn during these early years is the way adults should continue to learn during their later years? Could an IQ Matrix make this a possibility? You be the judge... IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 11 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Why Use an IQ Matrix? Society has changed considerably over the past 10 years, so much so that it’s becoming ever more difficult to stay on top of everything we need to know and do to achieve our goals and objectives. “It’s very easy to become overwhelmed with the amount of information that is contained within self-help and business books these days.” A Need for a Complete Reference Tool Organizing Your Acquired Knowledge An IQ Matrix is designed as a complete reference tool that you can easily refer to on a daily basis to help you stay on track with the achievement of your life’s goals, tasks, priorities, skills and objectives. Another concern for those seeking to apply what they learn into their lives is the ability to organize the knowledge they have gained in an actionable way. It’s very easy to become overwhelmed with the amount of information that is contained within self-help and business books these days. Each has a story to tell in a slightly different way making learning and applying what you learn confusing and somewhat disruptive. On top of this, who really has the time to read all of these books and then apply every concept that the author discusses? Unless we are physically capable of organizing the information we learn into manageable chunks in an easy to reference manner, then we will simply miss the bigger picture and fail to act upon what we know. This is the biggest trap that “personal development junkies” fall into. They read book-after-book… after book, however because they don’t immediately organize the information they are learning into manageable chunks, they therefore fail to apply this knowledge into their lives — which leads to procrastination and eventually stagnation. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 12 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Making Knowledge Easily Applicable Turning Knowledge into Wisdom I sincerely don’t believe that people have the time or the motivation to read and apply all of the knowledge and information they acquire throughout the day. And for this very reason I began creating the IQ Matrix posters. One of the most common excuses people make about why they are not living the life of their dreams, is because they simply Do Not Know What To Do! I wanted to help summarize all the most important and relevant aspects of each business, life and career topic area that pertains to the MasterMind Matrix into a reference poster that people can hang on their wall at home, at school and in the office. Subsequently users could then take the knowledge areas that are most applicable to their lives and circumstances and instil them consistently and persistently into their psyche through repetition and practice. An IQ Matrix helps turn this unknown into knowledge, and that knowledge into WISDOM by presenting you with what you need to know, then helping you apply this knowledge into your life. Over time this gains you valuable life experience, which turns to wisdom, thusly helping you successfully overcome the obstacles that are currently preventing you from moving forward in your life. It is said, that if you tell yourself a lie over and over again, that you will begin accepting it as your truth and reality. Along the same lines, if you reference an IQ Matrix wall poster again and again, you will eventually stop procrastinating and move yourself towards action — resulting from the guilt you have built up over time from not DOING what you KNOW you should be DOING. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 13 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step The Structure of an IQ Matrix As with all things, an IQ Matrix is made up of parts that form a structure. In fact, all the parts within this structure have been purposefully designed to naturally stimulate the brain to help improve your ability to learn the concepts and ideas presented within the map, while boosting your memory and recall of the information you are learning. Within this section let’s take a look at each of these parts of an IQ Matrix and discuss their purpose. Branches A branch is simply a fancy name for a section of the IQ Matrix. For instance within the IQ MATRIX EXPOSED map (on your right) there are five branches extending from the middle of the map represented by five different colors. There really isn’t much else you need to know about branches, however there are a few things you need to know about pathways which extend along each branch. Five IQ Matrix branches visible within this image IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 14 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Pathways Pathways are the black organic lines that connect all the words, ideas and concepts together. The purpose of these pathways is to mimic the brain’s organic structure and neurological thought process. They link ideas in a hierarchical structure to aid with memory and recall of information. Pathways are designed to make reading each IQ Matrix easier and should be used as directional maps that aid your eyes as you move along them. When it comes to pathways it’s important to understand at this stage that you should continue reading along the pathway until it comes to a “dead end” or conclusion. If you don’t follow this guideline then it’s very possible you could get lost as some pathways crisscross along the same keywords. However, by following a pathway to the end and stopping there, you will find it much easier to read and understand the IQ Matrix. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 15 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Pathway Example #1 Here is an example from the IQ MATRIX EXPOSED map. If you look over to the right you will find a section of the IQ Matrix. As an example I will write down word-for-word below how each of these pathways should be read. Please follow along with the IQ Matrix for clarification: Definition: Learning aid for categorizing information into easily digestible segments, chunks and pieces. Definition: Learning aid for retention of information. Benefits: Improves capacity to remember related pieces of information. Benefits: Improves capacity to remember related chunks. As you can see, when the pathways concluded I didn’t read any further because there was no continuation of that pathway along that specific word. You must therefore look for direct connections and extensions of the pathway to know when or when not to continue reading further. Some sections have been hidden to simplify the example. You will discover what the red dots mean shortly IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 16 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Pathway Example #2 Here is another example from the same map of a section that we are yet to discuss within this eBook. Please follow the IQ Matrix pathways on the map as I present them word-for-word below: Overview IQ Matrix gliding eyes over pathways. Begin reading from central image moving outwards. Begin reading from central image moving along black pathways till they end. You probably noticed within this example that the two paths are numbered. I will discuss this in detail on the next page. Some sections have been hidden to simplify the example I hope these two examples have clarified how to utilize pathways more effectively. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 17 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Colors Colors are another important part of an IQ Matrix. Their purpose is to distinguish topic segments from each other, to provide clarity, and to assist with memorization and recall of the information you are learning. As you probably can recall from the previous section, the brain learns best when bright images and colors are used. In fact the brain naturally separates and distinguishes items using colors, which subsequently allows for better memory and recall of information. For this main reason the IQ Matrix is designed in color rather than in a boring black and white format. Numbers At times certain concepts, ideas or pathways are numbered. This indicates a set order that must be followed. It could represent a sequence of steps that one must subsequently move through in order to reach a certain goal or objective. Within the IQ MATRIX EXPOSED map you can see that numbers are used in the green and orange sections of the map to indicate a progression of steps that must be followed in order to gain value from the concepts and ideas discussed within that specific IQ Matrix branch. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 18 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Images Images have a similar purpose to colors. They naturally stimulate the senses and assist with memory and recall of the information you are learning. However, they are also used as a means of visualizing ideas and keywords in a variety of ways. Images are linked to keywords, ideas and concepts in the following four ways: Images can symbolically represent words. For example “idea” can be represented with a light bulb. Images can sound like words. For example the word “pinpoint” is represented by an image of a bag of pins. Images can literally represent words. For example the word “key” will have and image of a key representing it. Images can metaphorically represent words. For example the word “hierarchical” is represented by three men sitting at a desk with the first being the largest figure and the third man being the smallest figure. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 19 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step 20 Images continued... Images can also be linked to keywords in an action oriented way. So for instance looking at the IQ Matrix you have the words “images can sound like words”. Below and on the right of these words is a cartoon of a male figure using a glass to listen to a conversation. This cartoon image represents “sound-like” and is an action oriented representation of that word. It’s also important to point out that at times more than one word within a certain section of the IQ Matrix can be represented by the same image. This doesn’t happen often, however it can be quite relevant at times. Finally, images that are related to keywords are often touching the colored section of the word or they are in close proximity to the keyword that they are representing. The cartoon image links to the keyword in an action oriented way Use these images to help you remember and recall the keywords and concepts they are representing, and you will quickly develop the capacity for a photographic memory. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners IQ Matrix Step-by-Step 21 Symbols Each IQ Matrix uses a number of symbols used to enhance and aid with reading each IQ Matrix. Identifies a major critical point that is important to the development of the topic under discussion. Here is a quick description of the main symbols used within an IQ Matrix and how they should be interpreted. LT This green dot indicates that something naturally LEADS TO something else. You will see these red dots used most often within almost every IQ Matrix. They are used just like a normal “full-stop”. When you come across one of these while reading the IQ Matrix simply STOP (pause) and then continue reading along the pathway as though you’re starting a new sentence. FS This purple dot is pretty straightforward representing the word “between”. Outlines the questions you can ask yourself to clarify a topic area to help move you towards action. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners bw IQ Matrix Step-by-Step 22 Symbols continued... It’s important not to get carried away with these symbols. They are simply there to enhance the fluidity of your reading. This yellow dot represents the word “example” and is used in exactly the same way as would be used when structuring normal sentences. This plain light-bulb is used at times within a black circle to represent solutions to problems that are presented. It’s not used often, but can be found within several maps that are designed around the structure of problems and solutions. EG As times you may also find this “information” symbol. This symbol indicates that you may want to conduct a little more research about this particular topic in order to grasp a more thorough understanding of the concepts presented within the IQ Matrix. = This blue dot represents the word “equals” and is used sparingly, however you may see it at times when one thing is represented as equalling something else in value or attribute. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Reading an IQ Matrix You might have heard through the grapevine that the only person who understands a mind map is the person who originally created the mind map. Under most circumstances I would agree with this statement, because many mind maps I have seen I have found very difficult to fully understand and comprehend. For this very reason I designed an IQ Matrix and effectively broke — literally tearing out some of the fundamental rules of mind mapping that make other people’s maps so difficult to understand. “An IQ Matrix is designed with the reader in mind. All of the pathways, colors, symbols and overall structure have been developed to aid reading and understanding of the concepts presented within the map.” An IQ Matrix is designed with the reader in mind. All of the pathways, colors, symbols and overall structure have been developed to aid reading and understanding of the concepts presented within the map. There isn’t any “guess-work” involved as I have made it as easy as possible to read and comprehend a topic step-by-step. There will of course be parts of the map that you may want to research a little further. However, on the most part, all relevant and necessary information has been included. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 23 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step Four Steps for Reading an IQ Matrix Here is a four step process to help you read an IQ Matrix from start to finish: Overview the IQ Matrix by gliding your eyes over the pathways and identifying key images, keywords, concepts and patterns. Take action upon the material and concepts you have been learning by implementing the ideas discovered within the IQ Matrix in your own life. Or if you need further information about a specific section of the IQ Matrix, take time to conduct further research in books, online or by speaking with your peers or coaches. Begin reading from the central image starting at one o’clock moving clockwise and outwards along the black pathways till they end. While reading be sure to associate images with keywords to enhance memory and recall. Review the IQ Matrix until vivid mental pictures have been created and strong associations have been formed of the topics you are learning. Sticking to this four step process will help you to get the most from each IQ Matrix. In the next section I will provide you with further tips and suggestions to help you gain more from each IQ Matrix.

IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 28 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step IQ Matrix FAQ Here are some questions I often get from readers that you might also be thinking about. How do you create each IQ Matrix? How long does it take to create each IQ Matrix? To create the actual IQ Matrix poster doesn’t take very long at all. Although it’s like any skill you learn for the first time — it simply takes a little time and patience to master and perfect the method before you become proficient. This is one of the most common questions I get asked on a weekly basis. And it’s a question I must “duck-under” for the time being. The reason why I am not giving away the technique and method I use to create each IQ Matrix is because I am planning to release a video instructional course that will describe and visually teach this method in the future. Initially creating the first IQ Matrix took me almost one week of full-time development because there was a lot of experimentation involved. However, over months of practicing and perfecting the technique, I am now able to complete one IQ Matrix in about 10 hours of solid work. Although creating the IQ Matrix is only one step of the process. Before the instructional course is released I will be running a competition on the IQ Matrix blog asking readers if they are able to identify the software I use to create each map. I must also research and piece together the information about the topic I am creating into a format that will fit the IQ Matrix design. I use other mind mapping software products for this purpose. This by itself can take anywhere from 2 to 5 hours, after which the IQ Matrix images need to be altered and prepared for publication and for marketing purposes, and of course the summary for each IQ Matrix needs to be written up (which I haven’t managed to do for all the maps). This process can take an extra 2 to 3 days. What I can giveaway is that I don’t use a specific mind mapping software application to create each IQ Matrix, although I do use mind mapping software for brainstorming and information collection purposes. IQ Matrix: A Ridiculously Simple Guide for Beginners 29 IQ Matrix Step-by-Step How did the IQ Matrix concept originate? How does each IQ Matrix poster link to the I provide background information on how I began mind mapping and about how the IQ Matrix concept originated on my personal site at adamsicinski.com. MasterMind Matrix chart? What are your professional qualifications? I am a qualified Life Coach. I obtained my qualifications at the Life Coaching Institute of Australia. However, the education I received at the institute pales in comparison to the personal knowledge I gained through experience and a long period of self-development and education that lead to the formation of the MasterMind Matrix. If you would like to know more about me, please visit my personal website at adamsicinski.com or send me an email using the contact page. I am always happy to hear from you and answer any additional questions you might have. Can you create a personalized IQ Matrix for me?
