That is exactly what worked for me as well. I get ideas when I read and listen other people’s ideas (or my own former notes).
Once a have small pieces of ideas, I tend to easily extend and elaborate using visual tools.
For me, it is always Scapple.
Just double clicking on the blank page: drop the idea there; then, branch it to another directions without any restrictions from the software. I often don’t put them to maps and connections.
Scapple provides absolute freedom.
