This week's prompt comes from a real moment. Before a recent meeting, I noticed a gentleman preparing for a community event with a scattered list of tasks and items in front of him. I asked if I could photograph it and run it through an AI tool. He said yes. In seconds, everything was sorted into three clear categories: actions to take, items to purchase, and setup tasks. He looked at the screen and said he could finally move forward. That is what clarity does — it creates momentum. This week, try it for yourself. Take any list that feels like a pile and ask AI to organize it into categories. It does not have to be neat before you send it. That is the point. What did it give you? Did anything end up in a category that surprised you?

Role: Act as a thinking partner. Context: I have a decision I need to make, but I'm not sure where to start. Goal: Help me think through it clearly. Challenge: I keep going in circles and can't find a clear next step. Style: Ask me questions one at a time. Keep it simple and calm. Result: Help me land on one clear thing I can do today. Before you send it — fill in what your actual decision is at the end of the Context line. That's the only thing you need to add. What did it give you? Did using the parts feel different than how you usually ask?

Prompt: “Act as a patient teacher. Help me understand one way AI could simplify something I already do.”

Before you send this, open your AI tool of choice, add one sentence at the end describing what you've been putting off. Then send the whole thing. Act as a coach helping someone take action. I have something I want to move forward on, but I keep putting it off. Help me break it into simple steps I can actually follow. I feel overwhelmed and unsure where to begin. Keep it clear, direct, and encouraging. Give me a step-by-step plan with actions I can take today. The thing I keep putting off is: [write it here before you send this] Feel free to share as much as you're comfortable with. What did it give you? Did anything surprise you?
