The principles of smart reading in map form. In her book, Mapping InnerSpace, Nancy Margulies draws this map to illustrate the key concepts of "smart reading":

1. Skim-check the main points first.

2. Prepare a large map skeleton.

3. Read not merely faster, but smarter.

4. Record key facts and important details on your map.

5. Organize concepts together, and when you've finished the book or other reading matter, redraw your Mind Map if you feel it needs to be simplified.
