Mind Mapping
Key points
Mind Mapping is an extremely effective method of taking notes. Mind Maps show not only facts, but also the overall structure of a subject and the relative importance of individual parts of it. They help you to associate ideas and make connections that you might not otherwise make.
If you do any form of research or note taking, try experimenting with Mind Maps. You will find them incredibly useful.
Mind Maps, Speed Reading techniques and knowledge about how to build a powerful memory, have all been around for many years. Using these techniques will allow you to build practical skills that will give you immediate benefits to last a life-time.
Planning, organising and thinking - when Mind Maps are taught properly and used to their full potential, they are superb for thinking through challenges, comprehensively planning (presentations, activities, projects, reports) and spotting (and making use of) connections and associations to add value to any thinking task. Using Mind Mapping at work will help you save professional and personal time.
