Question

How is the process of thinking chronologically related to the process of creating timelines?

Answer 1

- When you are thinking in chronological order you are thinking about certain events in order of how they happened in real life..
- When you are in the process of creating a timeline you are writing down those events in order from, past... to present. 
They are both very similar because you are making a list of how things have happened over a period of time.

Example: In the year of 2000, I was born.
                In the year of 2006, I learned how to ride a bike.
                In the year of 2016, I got my license and my own car.
                In the year of 2020, I graduated High School
This is all in chronological order and creating your own timeline.

Hope this helps :)) Best way I could explain it
