Humans are not machine. - Don’t expect by the rules to work exactly mechanically.

  • For example, in organizing information, don’t do “You must tag according to these rules.

  • You will definitely make mistakes, and the negative feelings from making a mistake will demotivate the action of organizing information itself.

  • The coefficient of friction of the output is increased by trying not to make mistakes

  • People make mistakes. Actions that follow mechanical rules should be done by machines.
