Understanding a Life Skills Mind Map
A life skills mind map sets out the practical abilities people need to manage independent adult life. It usually divides into money management (budgeting, saving, reading a bill), health and self-care (cooking, sleep, first aid), relationships (communication, conflict, teamwork) and daily tasks (cleaning, transport, time planning). Each branch then breaks into specific skills.
- Money management: budgeting, saving, banking and paying bills
- Health and self-care: nutrition, sleep, first aid and routines
- Relationships: communication, listening and resolving conflict
- Daily living: cooking, cleaning, transport and scheduling
- Decision making: setting goals and weighing consequences
Use the map to check which skills you already have and which to practise next. To build a version around your own course or workbook, create a personalized map with CogniGuide.
