Here's the mistake we see everyone making: trying to master every AI tool that hits the market. ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, Notion AI, Jasper, GG, Runway, Stable Diffusion... the list never ends. Result? Analysis paralysis. Tool overload. Zero progress. Here's what actually works: Pick ONE tool. Get really good at it. Use it until it saves you real time and money. THEN add the next one. We call it the "AI Staircase" approach: - Step 1: Master ChatGPT for your most time-consuming task - Step 2: Once it's automatic, add ONE specialized tool - Step 3: Repeat (but only after step 2 is effortless) The truth: You don't need to know everything about AI. You need to know the RIGHT things for YOUR business. Most successful entrepreneurs we know use 2-3 AI tools really well, not 20 tools poorly. Your challenge: What's the ONE AI tool you're going to focus on mastering this month? Drop it below and let's help you get really good at it! 👇
