What do you use to make yours? Do you know other people who are into these things? As for mind-mapping software: I like <a href="http://freemind.sourceforge.net" rel="nofollow">FreeMind</a> because it's free, open-source, cross-platform, and keyboard-friendly. I'm experimenting with using it to map my goals and several ways to go about them. Good stuff, although not quite as eye-candy-ish as other mindmappers. When mindmapping crossroads, I have basically the same structure. The goal is the center node. Possible ways are the first-level children, and then I just add lots of possible actions in a cloud around the center. Crossing things off makes me feel like I'm zeroing in on the core. <laugh> I look forward to reading your next post! I have to confess: I’m addicted to personal productivity forms. Please post more!
