Foreword
Mind Mapping For Dummies is an apt idea, as Mind Mapping is something we already know how to do – we do it constantly without even realising it!
Mind Mapping replicates the way our brains think and the way we absorb information. When we think of any idea, our mind instantly starts connecting this to other images, thoughts and concepts. So why do we force ourselves to make notes, plan and create in a way that our brain doesn’t like?
When I was at university, struggling to study with the mass of lined notes I had made, Mind Mapping helped me to make sense of the information, reduce my notes and remember more. Now it is doing the same for millions of people around the world, helping them to be more productive, creative and efficient in their everyday lives. Join them, and start using the full potential of your mind every day.
With this guide, Florian has created a comprehensive resource on Mind Mapping, which will be of great use to those wanting a step-by-step guide to using this powerful tool, also known as the ‘Swiss Army Knife’ of the brain! This book shows you how to Mind Map, what to avoid and gives you the information you need to navigate the jungle of Mind Mapping software out there.
You find out how versatile the Mind Map really is, and how you can apply this technique to plan, study, manage projects, solve problems and brainstorm.
Enjoy exploring the potential of your amazing mind!
