Mind mapping is considered a brainstorming technique out of which we obtain desired results or even extraordinary ones. A mind map helps us to show our ideas to our readers and help them understand what we were imagining. We can show the results in different ways, in order to make it look more appealing or meaningful, according to the type of target audience that we are aiming at.
