Yourbrain is constructed like a conglomeration ofmillions of . infinitesimalmindmaps
At the centerof each one of these mindmaps is an individual brain , cell with tens of thousands of connections called dendrites much , , like branches of a tree and one main dendrite called an axon the . main transmitterof information forthat cell
Dendrites connecting to otherbrain cell dendrites . are called synapses These synapses are like
. electrical impulses travelling through yourbrain
Along with connections of , millions ofmindmaps the synapses connect and
pass chemicals that help .you think
Yourthought process is similarto mindmaps because . thinking is associative Mapping helps organize random .thoughts and create actionable knowledge
, . Similarto the brain cell the topic is the nucleus Add - . associated sub topics to evolve the map Keep related
. , subjects together When a change of thought occurs - . create a newsub topic and then expand that thought
As you continue to scope out your thoughts, you may find your mind begins to go into a new direction, new ideas begin to surface, recalling hidden memories, or thoughts that were not so obvious when you began this map.
This may be your stream of consciousness that begins to take over and control the process.
A simple nudge for our complex beliefs, memories and associations are called up as a stream of consciousness that the brain produced. The neural network is always ready and at our disposal; it is one of the easy, common, natural, familiar needs of thinking to which we have instant access.
When you begin to map a thought, you may find you will continue with the stream of consciousness and begin to navigate towards a new thought and launch a new path of relationships for that thought.
These collective insights are known as a paradigm shift. Maybe it will be a new idea about your project, personal finances, etc. Once you become focused, just keep going in that direction.
Complete the thoughts
The mind is the brain in action Mind mapping mirrors the way the brain
works Capture random thoughts We process information with radiant thinking -
not linear or hierarchical order Gestalt imagery
The Gestalt effect refers to the form-forming capability of our senses, particularly with respect to the visual recognition of figures and whole forms instead of just a collection of simple lines and curves.
If something engages us completely, we never forget it.
The brain remembers and those thoughts are always there.
BUT for normal memory processing, “Attention Must Be Paid.”

Dr. Stanley of Boeing Aircraft condensed an aircraft engineering manual into a 25 ft. map. It helped aeronautical engineers to learn in a few weeks what previously took years. Saved $11 Million.
