In this post,we shall talk about mind map. Mind map is a very powerful tool. It helps us to brainstorm better and keep our creativity juice flowing simultaneously. In this world,we have different kind of mind map. 

One example is the reference mind maps
In a reference mind map,it contains informations organized so that you can find it again easily. Many types of subject can be broken down and represented this way. You can start by collecting ideas and facts, then reorganizing them into sections and subsections, so that you get a complete overview.



Reference mind map can be very useful when it comes to making up a big project for example, a structure or a layout plan for architectures and designers.

Last week, my classmates and i were given a task to create a big mind map on the topic red. Here is a snapshot of how it looks like .
I was amazed by the vast illimitable amount of ideas an average human being can produce while creating a mind map . However, to achieve a mind map with tons of ideas, creativity with an open mind plays a very important role. In our particular mind map, we divided the topic, red, into 3 different categories. Objects, Expressions and Colours . The reason why we divided the mind map into this 3 categories is that all 3 of them are the major sub-headings where we can later break up into smaller sections as we let our brain juice flow freely. 
Doing a mind map can never be a boring task especially if you are doing it in groups. Because there are no rules or restrictions in creating a mind map. It is your style, your mood and your creativity to think what you want to put in the mind map.  
Here a some examples of mind maps. 



From all these examples, you can see various ideas and compositions. A mind map can be kept simple, clean and categorised while it can also be full of doodles, messy and packed with ideas. Both acts as an important tool in getting ideas and inspirations .
I personally believe that a mind map would likely turn out to be a good one if it is done in groups because different people have different perspective in their own aspects of life. Thus by combining different people from different backgrounds, we can gain experience, learn mistakes, understanding each of their point of views and also teach and guide one another. Thus, a mind map will be a very powerful tool when you combine all the different ideas together to create it. Never underestimate the power of the human brain. And with that i wish all the best to the readers out there.

Peace out.
