Mind-Mapping software

The human brain finds it much easier to remember images than words and this is why, in a Mind Map, the central key idea is replaced by an image. Your brain does not think in a linear, monotonous way, rather it thinks in multiple directions simultaneously — starting from central trigger points in images or key words. I describe this as radiant thinking, where thoughts radiate outwards like the branches of a tree, the veins of a leaf or the blood vessels of the body that emanate from the heart.
