## What is a Mind Map?

### Definition
```
A mind map is a diagram that visually organizes information
around a central concept. It uses:

- A central topic in the middle
- Main branches for major themes

- Keywords and short phrases
- (Optional) Colors, icons, images

Benefits:
- See the big picture AND details
- Generate ideas more freely
- Find connections between concepts
- Remember information better
- Organize complex topics
```

- Central topic = subject
- Branches = main concepts
- Sub-branches = examples, details
- Add connections between ideas
```

### For Decision Making
```
Use when evaluating options.
- Central topic = decision
- Branches = options
