1, highlight the key points
Highlighting the key points is one of the important factors to improve memory and creativity. Only by remembering the key points can we master knowledge. For example, if we remember the key words, we can understand this sentence quickly and save a lot of time. So how do we highlight the key points? In fact, it uses the functions of the left and right brains.
① Use the central image.
Why use images instead of words? First of all, images can automatically attract the attention of eyes and brain. Secondly, the content of image expression is hundreds of times that of text, and the memory effect is ten million times that of simple text. Images can bring powerful attraction and greatly improve your attention.
Suppose you must use a word, then you need to make it into an artistic cartoon, giving it color and layering.
② Three or more colors should be used for the central image.
The human brain has a unique reaction to colors, and various colors can bring greater stimulation to the brain and enhance memory and creativity. Color can make the image more vivid, increase the attraction of mind map and avoid the monotony brought by single tone.
③ The whole mind map should use images.
In mind mapping, you should use images as much as possible. In addition to the above benefits, it can also establish a very exciting balance between your eye vision and brain language cortex, and improve your visual touch.
You may ask, "How to draw a picture? What if I don't draw well? " First of all, we don't need to be afraid. Usually everyone has a talent for painting. Images come from real objects, you just need to observe more and learn simple stick figures. You can be a master of mind mapping images.
If you really lack the talent for painting, then I have a mind map image here, which can be provided to you. Students in need can leave messages or private messages in the comment area.
④ The image should have a sense of hierarchy.
Images can highlight the sense of hierarchy and make it easy for people to remember. It is equivalent to going from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, and using layered images as mind maps on the next floor.
⑤ Use synaesthesia.
When drawing mind maps, we need to use some words or images about vision, hearing, smell, taste, touch and kinesthetic (muscle sensation). Many famous memory masters, great writers and poets have used this method, because the five senses can stimulate our brains to stimulate imagination and memory.
For example, in Zhu Ziqing's Moonlight on the Lotus Pond, synaesthesia is used to describe the fragrance of lotus flowers, and the fragrance of lotus flowers is compared to singing.
