There is a lot of information available on different mind mapping software solutions. I recently wrote a piece on how to choose the right tool. Many people since then asked me which software tool or tools I use most of the time. Today I tell you more about that and I tell you WHY I use these solutions (much more important).
At the end of this page you find a link to download most of the tools.
For every tool I wrote the percentage of my time I use this tool. Remember, this is just how I use various tools. For me, this approach works best. For you, there is probably a different approach. If you have any questions, please feel free to connect with me.

I once read a quotation of Bruce Lee. He said he emphasized on the style of no style.
Later on I saw a movie which had a young student of kung fu. He said he wanted to master the art of fighting, without knowing how to fight! When he said that, his master looked at him and shook his head…
Lets stop right here. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could fight without knowing how to fight?
We should bring this into our own life and our mindmaps. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could use mindmaps without knowing how to create mindmaps???
Think about that for a moment.
You would be able to use mindmaps like a pro yet you would not have to spend time learning how to create them!
You would benefit from visual mapping while not knowing how to map your thoughts and information!
I believe that is exactly what we need.
The moment your eyes are opened, you agree with me that you don’t want to create mindmaps. You may not even want to use them. You just want the result or benefit you get from using them.
If I could give you a mindmap with the information you gave me, organized and outlined, ready to be used by you: WOULD YOU LIKE THAT? (so you wouldn’t have to create the map!)
Of course you would. You would be able to implement the knowledge from the map and move forward.
That’s what I want to teach people: Knowing how to USE visual thinking without being bound by rules to CREATE visualmaps.

I’ve seen so many discussions online about which mindmap is better, the one on paper or one a computer. I write for real people who want to use mindmaps, not for big corporations who need to read everything extremely business-like. That’s why I want to allow myself to write this article in a different style.
I organized a little showdown for you. Below is a short article on a match between a computer map and a paper mindmap.
After all… we are trying to become more visual thinkers, right? Just let your imagination run wild as we watch the match.
Enjoy!
DING DING DING
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the match of the year.
