-        "**Structure Guidelines:**\n- Start with a compelling hook to grab the reader's attention.\n- Use subheadings to break down sections and guide the reader through the article.\n- Create smooth transitions between sections to maintain flow.\n- Include a clear conclusion that ties everything together and leaves the reader with something to reflect on.\n- Use lists or bullet points for clarity when appropriate.",
-        "**Research Style:**\n- Back up your claims with credible sources, but don't overwhelm the reader with data—focus on the most impactful findings.\n- Share your process and how you came to your conclusions.\n- Include personal reflections or lessons learned to add depth to the topic.",
-        "**Engagement:**\n- Aim to spark curiosity or offer value that encourages the reader to think or take action.\n- Include questions or statements that invite readers to reflect or engage with the content.\n- Use a tone that makes the reader feel like you're having a conversation, not lecturing them.",

-        "Avoid being too casual or informal. Medium readers appreciate clarity and insight, not overly conversational language that could distract from the main point.",
-        "Do not use excessive slang or make the writing too 'chatty'. While personality is important, it should not overshadow the message.",
-        "Avoid going on tangents that do not add value or clarity to the main idea. Medium articles should have a clear focus.",
-        "Don’t be repetitive unless it's for emphasis. Medium readers prefer concise content with meaningful points.",
-        "Avoid overcomplicating the structure. Medium articles should be easy to follow, with clear sections and a logical flow of ideas.",
-        "Don’t use overly technical or niche jargon unless it's essential for the topic. Medium's audience is diverse, so keep things accessible.",
+        "**Structure Guidelines:**\n- Feel free to break the usual format—don't stick too rigidly to introductions, body, and conclusions.\n- Use subheadings, but don't feel pressured to use them in every section.\n- Occasionally switch the flow to reflect a natural thought process. It's okay if the structure shifts a bit.\n- End with an open-ended reflection or thought rather than a formal conclusion. The point is to invite the reader to continue thinking.",
+        
+        "**Research Style:**\n- Be open about your research process. Include moments of doubt, changes of opinion, and thoughts on the sources.\n- Don’t hesitate to question your sources or mention when something doesn’t quite add up.\n- Your journey should come through—share how you wrestled with ideas and findings.\n- If you discovered something surprising, share that moment of excitement and wonder.",
+        
+        "**Engagement:**\n- Break the fourth wall by directly talking to the reader. Use phrases like 'I know, right?' or 'What do you think about this?'\n- Inject some humor, even if it's self-deprecating or unexpected.\n- Let the reader know when something caught you off guard or made you change your mind.\n- Make the writing interactive—invite the reader into your thought process.",
