The must-read summary of Jamie Nast's book: “Idea Mapping: How to Access Your Hidden Brain Power, Learn Faster, Remember More and Achieve Success in Business”.
This complete summary of the ideas from Jamie Nast's book "Idea Mapping" highlights that the human brain is better at processing information when it is presented visually. Therefore by converting linear information that is received into an idea map, you create relationships which will help clarify the information contained. The author tells the reader the best ways to establish idea mapping, such as defining your purpose in advance, but understanding that it’s best to have ideas first and create order later. Start with less, rather than more – a word can be a better springboard than a phrase. Look at others’ idea maps on the same subject, to create synergy, then do a team map together.

Book Abstract
MAIN IDEA
Idea maps are visual and colorful representations of an idea, an issue or a problem on a single piece of paper. They capture all the various relationships visually, allowing both hemispheres of the brain to be engaged.
The human brain is actually better at processing information when it is presented visually rather than textually. Despite this, however, most communication is linear rather than visual. By converting the information which is received into an idea map, you create relationships which will help clarify the information contained.
Studies have shown people remember:
10% of what they hear.20% of what they read.80% of what they see and do.This means by taking information and using the idea map format, you can significantly improve the amount you retain because idea maps combine seeing and doing activities. Idea maps are a way to actively structure information. By so doing, you increase your recall and understanding of the information.
The key advantage of an idea map is it frees the brain to think, see and understand in new and better ways. Idea maps break the blinders which come with long multi paged documents. They allow individuals and teams to think creatively in new ways.
A good idea map:
Will break the tradition of linear thinking.Captures relationships between ideas visually.Provides a tangible way for people to plan.Helps everyone learn at the same pace.Increases group productivity.Saves time and improves recall.Cuts through generalities and deals with specifics.Uses the logic of association to good effect.Engages the full range of cortical skills.Eliminates gridlock and moves things forward.Is a comprehensive way to think.Allows new mental associations to emerge.Facilitates brainstorming and creative thinking.About the Author
