Opt-in Introduction

The Elevator Pitch. Scripting the Visual Process
uses only three punctuation marks to increase
profits, sales, product analysis and collaboration
for you and your teams. Your answer is (YES), and
finally youre in the right place. If your thinking
(No) then Id ask you to read along, long enough
to know what the punctuation marks are so that
when youre tested from someone who does read
this, youll be up to speed.

For those that think they can read the first sentence of any material and
know it instantly, here are the punctuation marks:
(.) The Period that appears at the end of a sentence or statement.
(:) The Colon that appears as a conjunction between similar or
dissimilar thoughts.
(?) The Question Mark that appears at the end of a sentence or
statement that prompts a choice of response(s).
Important but rarely considered a punctuation mark is the
<indent> which we will describe later.

Ok, all you go getters, go getem.

For the rest of us well keep on and Ill explain the use and utility of these
three punctuation marks and much more that will train your eye to review
material and instantly understand the flow and continuity of the content
youre reading. In addition, for those in your team or the teams that youre
in charge, you will be able to assess each members understanding of a
process or organizational structure, you will be able to scan material and
translate it into a cause and effect analysis for problem solving.

The last point alone is worth reading through this material.

Who is Mike Script and why the hell am I reading his material.

So, now that you know me lets grab a sheet of paper and pencil and well
start training our eye to see the written word in a whole new, more
productive way. Dont worry youll be back on your devices shortly.

Here are the three simple rules were going to follow during this introduction
to Scripting the Visual Process.

1 Every time a (.) period appears at the end of a sentence or
statement, Im going to draw or imagine a box.






2 Every time a (:) colon appears at the end of a sentence or
statement, Im going to draw or imagine choices underneath the
sentence or statement where the (:) colon appears:
o This is a choice statement:
() Choice.
() Choice.
() Choice.*
3 Every time a (?) question mark appears at the end of a
sentence or statement, Im going to draw or imagine a question
with a (Yes) and (No) options underneath.*

Now lets talk about the <indent>. Whenever you indent below any
statement you are identifying that the information above and to the left of
the indent is parent to the statement immediately below and to the right.
Lets show you exactly this indent.
Example:
Here is my top first statement:<Left Most Indent>
This item is a child to the parent statement above and only the
statement above. <One Indent to the Right>
This is the second child item that belongs to the parent above and
only to the parent above. <One Indent to the Right>
Here is the second statement which is below the first statement.
This item is a child to the second parent statement above.
This is the second child item that belongs to the second parent
statement above.

One more example.
Mother Earth:
o First Child of Mother Earth.
o Second Child of Mother Earth.
o Third Child of Mother Earth.
Mother Jones:
o First Child of Mother Jones.
o Second Child of Mother Jones.

There you have it. Three building blocks, plus the indent to begin Scripting
the Visual Process.

Now obviously theres much more, but for right now Id like you to try the
app that we have developed. Follow the simple instructions below and youll
be able to write some scripts and well generate the process chart for you.
This is a great offer, you type we build the diagram for you. You can also
write some simple organizational charts as well.

allClearapps.com > Instructions
Bonus One: *
Before you go any further. Test yourself and visually process the paragraph
that startsLet it Go and ends with Let it Go. See if you end up with the
same process chart as Ive included. Theres no right or wrong, well, actually
yes there is, so you should give it a try and see if you envisioned something
different, if you do youll know two things: (1) you actually can learn from
your mistakes and (2) People vision processes differently, a point we
expand on in later materials.

"Let It Go"

The snow glows white on the mountain tonight:
Not a footprint to be seen.
A kingdom of isolation.
And it looks like I'm the queen.

The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried.

Don't let them in, don't let them see.

Be the good girl you always have to be.

Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know.

Well, now they know.

Let it go, let it go.

Compare this to yours and look for the differences. Thats where the magic
is, if you drew it exactly as it was presented great! Remember that in the
future if your visual script is different from someone elses, its ok it just
means that theres a point of understanding and communication that needs
to occur.

NUMBERS
SEQUENCING
Scripting the Visual Process, by Michael Script, (TM)(C)
Yes, we threw in something new, did you see them. We numbered the
sequence of the items, the item numbers arent in the narrative but they do
appear in the diagram. Thats because in the application, the numbering for
items can be turned on or off. For you manually, you can either enumerate
the items or let the application do it for you, your choice. More on that later.
Lets move onto anther bonus, I feel good about this.

BONUS 2: FISHBONE

Before we start we have to reboot your brain. Its ok it wont hurt, much. We
need for you to visualize from right to left, why? Because the FISHBONE or
cause and effect diagram was developed by someone who thinks in a right
to left manner with his language, his culture and scripting*language. So, hold
your right hand up in front of you and say (EFFECT!), bring your left hand up
and match it to your right hand like youre praying (to get this right). Now,
separate your left hand across the front of
you and say CAUSES!

See video clip, where available.

The Cause & Effect, or Fishbone Diagram,
was first used by Dr. Kaoru Ishikawa of the University of Tokyo in 1943. This
process diagram is used to identify all of the contributing root causes likely
to be effecting a solution, i.e., cause and effect.

This visual script can be used on any type of problem, and can be tailored by
the user to fit the circumstances. Early in my career I shied away from
fishbone diagrams because of their complexity. However, since that time
Ive embraced them almost exclusively in my practice. The use of this tool
has many benefits for process improvement, especially in teams:
(1) Straightforward and easy to learn visual tool.
(2) Involves the workforce in problem resolution,
o (2a) preparation of the fishbone diagram provides an
education to the whole team.
(3) Engages and organizes discussion to stay focused on the
current issue(s).
!"#$%&'%() '+, -%./01 2$3#,..45 67 8%#+0,1 "#$%&'
(4) Promotes "System Thinking" through visual links and scripts.
(5) Prioritizes additional analysis and promotes corrective actions.

Ok, heres the visual script for the aforementioned paragraph.


!"#$%&'%() '+, -%./01 2$3#,..45 67 8%#+0,1 "#$%&'
So, that was pretty simple. The FISHBONE concept and process, youll find
very beneficial. Lets get started.

Were going to need one more punctuation mark to assist our efforts. The (\)
backslash, which is the opposite of the (/) forward slash you use with your
browser. The backslash indicates at the top of the diagram that the actions
will be diagramed as FISHBONE. After this point the <indent> is the second
most important action to build the FISHBONE diagram. We will still use the
(.) period punctuation mark.

Fishbone Example:
Problem Statement\
Methods 5%.
Cause.
Cause.
Measurements 5%.
Cause.
Cause.
Manpower 5%.
Cause #3 10%.
Cause #2 10%.
Cause #1 60%.
Cause C 10%.
Cause B 10%.
Cause A 40% Why?.
Cause A.3 5%.
Cause A.2 5%.
Cause A.1 30% Why?.
Why? A1.1.
Machines 5%.
Cause.
Cause.
Materials 5%.
Cause.

!"#$%&'%() '+, -%./01 2$3#,..45 67 8%#+0,1 "#$%&'
For now the content isnt as important as the placement of the punctuation
and being mindful of the indents. Well instantly turn this into a FISHBONE
process example below. Remember you can copy and paste this FISHBONE
example into any notepad and email it to us and well send the process
diagram back to you: http://allclearapps.com for instructions or send the
above text to the following email address, AFTER YOUVE REGISTERED,
info@allclearapps.com and voila.



As you can see the [Problem Statement] is to the far right and the [Cause &
Effects] are to the left, in back of the problem is a great way to think of the
FISHBONE process map. Graphically you can see of the image appears like
fish scales.

Now, were going to provide a different viewpoint, which I find more useful
for cultures that havent been as exposed to the right to left dissemination of
!"#$%&'%() '+, -%./01 2$3#,..45 67 8%#+0,1 "#$%&'
information. For those that are familiar, this may give you a new perspective
on viewing a problem with its causes and effects.



As you can see, you are now viewing the problem from the top, down and
this perspective gives you relevance to all of the mitigating factors that
impact the problem. This view is very akin to standing man a phrase coined
in the early 80s by yours truly to provide at least two points to stand up any
argument. For the FISHBONE process, the standing man concept asks you
to provide more than one cause and effect to validate the problem. Why? It
causes you and your team to look deeper to substantiate the cause and
effect of a situation. Simply stopping at the first cause and effect may
misrepresent the issue. Of course, there may only be a simple cause and
effect that describes the problem or situation, but hopefully that conclusion
was reached after analysis.

All right, weve done a lot for an introduction. Lets go over what weve done
and what youre taking away from these examples:
How the use of punctuation can change how we visualize processes.
