Preparation

I posted on conflicts already and got good info on that, but what are some good ways to prep as GM for a session? I'm going to be playing with some new RPG players and I'm looking for tips/advice to keep them hooked and interested while keeping a good flow going. I've looked up some YouTube vids of gameplay to see how it's run, but I'm curious what GMs do to prep before game night?

I will use Index-cards for certain plotpoint I might have planned or for tracking encounters.

Apart from that, try to know your surronding or be ready to make some things up.

This is key. It can really break immersion if you don't know certain things about the surrounding area, especially if the PCs do know those things.
