Mind mapping is a creative exercise used to explore ideas
One thing to remember, there is not right or wrong way to mind map. This is a creative process and we do not want to slow it down by making a ton of rules.
The great thing about this process is all that you need is a piece of paper, a white board or anything else that you can use as a canvas. If I am the only one mind mapping, then I utilize the my Bullet Journal. this has been my productivity partner of choice for the past 4 years. I tend to remember and focus on things that I write down.
