Some suggestions:

• Use meaningful names.  "Main" is not a bad name for the Main Program that is the one you run.  If the sub-VIs "do some thing" (preferably only one thing), give them similarly "meaningful" names.
• Try to make sub-VIs "do one thing" so that you (or someone whom you ask for help) can easily grasp the purpose.  If you need to make a sub-VI inside a sub-VI to "hide the details", that's a Good Thing.
• Try to stick with the standard 4-2-2-4 connector pane. 
• If you have multiple VIs as part of your Project, learn to "wrap" them in a LabVIEW Project (when you load the Project, you load "pointers" to all of your VIs, so you can open "Main" and it will "know" that you also have SubVI-1, SubVI-2, and SubVI-3 included). 
• If your VI isn't "obvious by glancing at it", it wouldn't hurt to put a text label that says what it is supposed to do (for when you ask people to help you, but aren't around to answer their questions ...).

Hi bramma,

to add to Bob's wonderful suggestions:

When you want to run the very same subVI in parallel you SHOULD to learn about the "reentrancy" setting for VIs.

When you additionally want to store values inside the subVI (like elapsed time values) you NEED to learn this reentrancy thing!

@Bob:

Maybe bramma is a fan of "security by obscurity" design?

Oh, dear, I didn't realize how many of the engineering students I encounter have been learning this Design Principle ...
