Normally in a GD session we are all given a blank piece of paper. You can use this blank piece of paper as your mind map or use it as a note pad. Transforming paper as a mind map makes things a wee bit easy when your turn comes. But more often than not people stumble and just fail to put their point across. I just came across an article about 'prep card', which can actually help you curb this tendency. I am not too sure about its effectiveness but, it sure looks promising.
A prep card is nothing but a normal GD mindmap, where in you jot down the points you want to talk about. Once you are done spilling out your brain on paper, just write down two three points about what you dont want to do. Like, "dont be too agressive" / "do not stumble" / maintain eyecontact" the list is endless. Once you write it down on paper, you will keep reminding yourself about what can be your waterloo.
Here is an illustration - 'prep cards'.
