information is much better remembered.

A mind map has a clear and simple structure. Information is stored in branches. All the information in a
branch is related to each other. The result is that you can quickly find out what something means, what
the implication of the information is, etc. You save time and energy this way. When you create a mind
map, it is fun to do. You are not thinking about work or making things difficult for yourself. You get to
doodle and still create something valuable.
