	How To Mind Map
	There are a number of key factors in learning how to mind map, like: Using just just key words rather than long sentences. Using images wherever possible to make your mind maps colorful. Start in the center with a clear title and where possible a strong visual image that shows the general theme of the map. Use color and boundaries to group branches, and colors to depict themes and make things stand out. Make ideas stand out using color, humor, images, fonts etc – it will then stand out in your mind. Use link lines (with arrows where required) to show secondary links between different elements. If you run out of ideas in one place, just move on to another area of the mind map. Record ideas as you think of them, wherever they fit. Don’t judge or hold back. Get emotionally involved. Have fun. You remember more when you are having fun. These are just a few of the important factors to consider when making your mind maps. I have written a full article about How to Mind Map which gives you everything you need to know to be successful with your mind mapping.

"NovaMind is one of the most ambitious, well-designed, easy-to use and complete solutions I've ever tried."

Dear NovaMind developers!

I've recently downloaded a trial version of NovaMind. I'm absolutely new to the Mind Mapping concept, only have read a few examples about it, but never tried myself.

The tutorials were very helpful and easy to understand, so in about an hour I felt myself comfortable with both the concept and the software.

I love to learn new, explore new software to get more productive in any means, so I often download trial versions or demos. I have to say, that NovaMind is one of the most ambitious, well-designed, easy-to use and complete solutions I've ever tried. It's good to see there are such companies with really smart, committed people there.

I'm continuing to explore the possibilities of Mind Mapping as well as NovaMind.

Thank you guys!

"The relationships become clear in my mind and the thoughts get untangled"

I love this program...My life is changed - I can throw out all my ADD brain has in it and then focus on the branch I need to. The relationships become clear in my mind and the thoughts get untangled.

I spoke to the student bodies of two schools this week. The first talk I prepped my usual way...outlined notes in Word. Took most of an evening and I was tied to a 12 page annotated outline. The second in Novamind took about 30 minutes to prep, and I did a 40 minute teaching from one sheet of paper and did not miss a bit of it (and did not run too long down the rabbit trails because I could see how much more I needed to talk about.)

The spatial/visual properties of NM made me a better speaker, and I don't even know how to use all the features yet.
