I need PIM not IT

"Personal information management (PIM) refers to the practice and the study of the activities people perform in order to acquire, organize, maintain, retrieve and use information items such as documents (paper-based and digital), web pages and email messages for everyday use to complete tasks (work-related or not) and fulfill a person’s various roles (as parent, employee, friend, member of community, etc.).
One ideal of PIM is that we always have the right information in the right place, in the right form, and of sufficient completeness and quality to meet our current need. Technologies and tools such as personal information managers help us spend less time with time-consuming and error-prone activities of PIM (such as looking for information). We then have more time to make creative, intelligent use of the information at hand in order to get things done, or to simply enjoy the information itself. "
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.)
After more than ten years swimming and playing in something they call "IT", I suddenly understand what I really need is "PIM" and "PKM".
The point is "We then have more time to make creative, intelligent use of the information at hand in order to get things done, or to simply enjoy the information itself.
Anyway, let's enjoy some similar feeling " Ayo Technology " :
