I tend to group by:
Skills I need to Learn (motivation/obstacle)
Skills I want to Learn (motivation/curiosity)
Skills that should be prioritized
Skill-dependent Skills
Time-dependent Skills
People-dependent skills

- Polymorphic: base, but reshapable
- Complimentary: divergent but work well together
- Associative: related
- Generative Skills: creates other types
- Creative Skills: infinite
- Authentic Skills: soul

2/ To see why things are the way they are, Follow the incentives.
3/ A Principal provides the resources, the Agent arranges the resources & acts on behalf of the principal. Incentive problems arise when a principal wants to delegate a task to the agent.
Each Area Page is an Action oriented Dashboard unique to the features of that area.
An Area is collection/category of activities, stages & events managed and cultivated over time.
My Nutrition area for example is where I have table, galleries & notes related to my nutritional health, like my meal plans, supplements, eating principles or dietary notes.
I associate the following other databases with Areas
Projects - A Collection of Tasks with a specific outcome and near-term deadline.
Problems - An Obstacle or Issue I want to overcome.
Experiments - A habit, tool, or other activity I'm trying out.
Topics - Related categories.
