What is linear thinking?

Linear thinking, that is, linear thinking mode, is a one-sided, linear and intuitive way of thinking, which stays on the abstraction of matter rather than essence, and takes this abstraction as the starting point of understanding. Formal logic is only intellectual logic, but if it is regarded as a way of thinking, it is a linear way of thinking. This way of thinking can't grasp the essence and laws behind complex economic phenomena.

Linear thinking is a linear, one-way, one-dimensional and unchangeable way of thinking, while nonlinear thinking is an interconnected, non-planar, three-dimensional network structure without center and boundary, similar to human brain nerves and blood vessels. Linear thinking, such as traditional writing and reading, is influenced by the space of manuscript paper and books and must be carried out in time and space and logical order.

Thinking advantage:

1. Memorizing only relevant words can save time: 50% to 95%.

2. Only reading related words can save time: save more than 90%.

3. Reviewing mind map notes can save time: save more than 90%.

4. Don't look for keywords when you don't need them, which can save time: 90% of the total time.

5. Focus on the real theme.

6. Important keywords are more conspicuous.

7. Important keywords are juxtaposed in time and space to improve creativity and memory.

8. Clear and appropriate associations can be generated between keywords.

9. The brain is more likely to accept and remember mind maps with visual stimuli, multiple colors and multiple dimensions, rather than monotonous and annoying linear notes.

10, when doing mind mapping, people will be on the verge of constantly making new discoveries and new relationships. This will encourage an uninterrupted and possibly endless flow of ideas.

1 1. Mind mapping is consistent with the natural completion or complete desire of the brain.

12, the brain keeps using all its cortical skills, becoming more and more awake and willing to accept new things.
