PRINCIPLE 1 : MAXIMUM EFFECT FOR MINIMUM MEANS

- Our system want to function as economical as possible.
- If we can smell, see, hear or decide something faster or with less effort, we will prefer it over the more demanding alternative.
- For example, before this, people use book and have to go to the library to get the book (knowledge), but now, people just use "google" to search anything.

- People like to invest a minimum amount of means, for example: effort, resources, brain capacity to attain the highest possible effect, in terms of survival, reproduction, learning or explaining.
- A theory or formula is considered beautiful when it only has a few assumptions or parameters that can describe or predict a vast range of phenomena.
