🎯 Why "Perfect" AI Prompts Are Killing Your Progress (And What to Do Instead)
We see it constantly: people spending 30 minutes crafting the "perfect" ChatGPT prompt instead of just starting with something basic and iterating.
The perfectionism trap:
- Researching prompt engineering for hours before writing one prompt
- Rewriting prompts 5 times before hitting send
- Feeling like you need to be an "AI expert" before you can get value
- Comparing your messy first attempts to polished examples online
Here's the truth: The best AI users we know are terrible at writing prompts. They're just really good at iteration.
The magic formula:
- Start with a rough prompt
- See what comes back
- Adjust and try again
- Repeat until it works
Real example:
- Attempt 1: "Write a blog post"
- Attempt 2: "Write a blog post about productivity tips"
- Attempt 3: "Write a 500-word blog post about 3 productivity tips for busy entrepreneurs, in a conversational tone"
- Result: Usable content in 5 minutes vs. perfect prompt in 30 minutes
Your challenge: Next time you use AI, give yourself permission to be terrible at prompting. Focus on speed, not perfection.
What's one thing you've been putting off because you want to "do AI right"? Let's get messy and make progress! 🚀
