WHAT IS MIND MAPPING?

MIND MAPPING IS A POWERFUL TECHNIQUE THAT HELPS YOU VISUALIZE YOUR THOUGHTS AND
COMMUNICATE THEM TO OTHERS. WHAT’S MORE, MIND MAPPING ENCOURAGES A FREE FLOW OF
IDEAS, WHICH MAKES IT THE IDEAL FORMAT FOR BRAINSTORMING AND CREATIVE PROBLEM
SOLVING SESSIONS.





HOW TO MIND MAP

Start in the center: To make a mind map, start by writing the subject of your
map in the center of a blank piece of paper or digital canvas. The subject can
be a single keyword, an image, a question, or a problem that you’re trying to
solve.

Add branches: Branches are lines that extend outwards from the center and
symbolize the main categories or key ideas that relate to your subject. Most
maps have between four and six branches, but you can add as many as you need.

Write a keyword on each branch: Use keywords and short phrases rather than long
sentences. This will keep your map compact and easy to review because you will
be able to see your most important ideas at a glance.

Add ideas: Each idea you map may trigger associations in your brain and spark
new ideas, which you can then add in the form of child branches. There is no
limit as to how many child branches or hierarchical levels you can create.

Add visuals: Enrich your map by adding colors, icons, and images to individual
topics. Mind mapping software like MindMeister takes this to the next level by
letting you embed videos, add notes and comments, or attach entire files such as
PDFs or spreadsheets.


WHY MIND MAPPING?

A MIND MAP IS A VISUAL THINKING TOOL THAT HAS MANY ADVANTAGES COMPARED TO
TRADITIONAL NOTE TAKING AND WRITING TECHNIQUES. IF YOU’RE WONDERING WHY YOU
SHOULD MIND MAP, TAKE A LOOK AT THIS LIST OF THE TOP MIND MAPPING BENEFITS:

MIND MAPS STRUCTURE INFORMATION

Mind maps are graphical representations of information that convey the
relationship between individual ideas and concepts. No matter how complex or
broad a subject is, a mind map brings order to the chaos and helps you see the
'bigger picture'.

MIND MAPS IMPROVE MEMORY

Mind maps utilize a number of memory triggers such as colors and images. These
are much easier for your brain to memorize and recall than pure text.
Additionally, mind maps help you connect new pieces of information with existing
knowledge.

MIND MAPS FOSTER CREATIVITY

There are very few techniques out there that have the ability to get your
creative juices flowing like mind mapping. That is because mind maps use images
and keywords to create new associations in your brain, which you can also
transcribe with incredible speed.

MIND MAPS FACILITATE COLLABORATION

While traditional paper mind maps are great for developing ideas by yourself,
online mind maps enable you to brainstorm with other people and plan together in
real-time, no matter where people are located or which device they’re using.

MIND MAP HISTORY

VISUAL REPRESENTATIONS OF INFORMATION HAVE BEEN USED FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS. THE
TERM “MIND MAP”, HOWEVER, WASN’T AROUND UNTIL THE 1970S, WHEN IT WAS COINED BY
THE ENGLISH RESEARCHER TONY BUZAN. BUZAN WAS SEARCHING FOR A WAY TO DEAL WITH
THE LARGE AMOUNTS OF INFORMATION HE NEEDED TO MEMORIZE DURING HIS TIME AT
UNIVERSITY. HE STUDIED THE NOTES OF THE GREATEST THINKERS HE COULD FIND AND
COMBINED THEIR APPROACHES WITH HIS OWN RESEARCH ABOUT PSYCHOLOGY, CREATIVE
THINKING AND MEMORIZATION. EVENTUALLY, AFTER THE FIRST SUCCESSES WITH HIS NEWLY
DEVELOPED TECHNIQUE, HE STARTED WRITING A SERIES OF BOOKS ON THE SUBJECT. THE
FIRST EDITION OF “THE MIND MAP BOOK” APPEARED IN 1995. TWELVE YEARS LATER, IN
2007, THE FIRST COMPLETELY WEB-BASED MIND MAP TOOL WAS RELEASED. THIS TOOL WAS
MINDMEISTER, WHICH QUICKLY BECAME THE NUMBER ONE MIND MAPPING SOFTWARE ON THE
WEB.
