- Being able to connect emotionally helps to mitigate some of the boredom that often accompanies appeals that are just facts.

- Examine the general purpose of why you're speaking; every idea in your speech should connect to that purpose to reinforce your thesis.
- From there, the speaker can begin to craft a thesis, such as, "Facebook is a valuable tool for the elderly to remain connected to their loved ones while simultaneously boosting cognition and memory affected by aging. "
- The speaker will want to make sure that every piece of evidence and thought in the speech connects to that general purpose, in order to present a reinforced theme to the audience.

- You can use the specialized terminology of a particular profession or group if you know that they already have specific connections to the more abstract terminology.
- Your objective when choosing words is not to avoid abstract general words altogether, but rather to avoid using them when your audience needs more specific, concrete connections to what you are saying.

- Mind Maps break away from the linear format of PowerPoint by using graphic symbols to show connections between different ideas, allowing the presenter to show a top level map and then drill down to show details for different connecting ideas.
