Stop using ChatGPT like Google
Use it like a coach.
Here are 8 prompts that push your thinking further:
1/ Idea Stress Test
"Act as a skeptical investor. Challenge my idea for [PROJECT]. Ask 5 tough questions and suggest 3 improvements."
This forces you to defend your idea before building it.
Better to face hard questions from AI than investors.
2/ Flip Perspectives
"Describe [TOPIC] from the view of a beginner, an expert, and a critic. Return a table with key differences."
Shows blindspots in your thinking.
What's obvious to you isn't obvious to beginners.
What experts see that you're missing.
3/ Framework Builder
"Design a framework to solve [PROBLEM]. Show the steps, success measures, and a real-world example of it in action."
Turns vague problems into structured solutions.
With actual steps, not just theory.
4/ Shortcut Creator
"Suggest 5 shortcuts or tools to achieve [GOAL] faster, with less effort. Rank by speed of execution."
Stop grinding when smarter paths exist.
AI knows tools you've never heard of.
5/ Scenario Planner
"Create 3 future scenarios for [SITUATION]. Label them Best Case, Expected Case, Worst Case. For each, give actions to take now."
Most people only plan for success.
This prepares you for all outcomes.
6/ Objection Handler
"List the 5 hardest objections to [OFFER]. Write a one-sentence response for each that builds trust."
Know what prospects will say before they say it.
Have answers ready.
7/ Decision Matrix
"Build a weighted decision matrix to compare [OPTION A] and [OPTION B]. Show scores, rationale, and a final choice."
Stop agonizing over decisions.
Systematize them.
8/ Next Steps Map
"Write a roadmap for the next 7 days to progress on [GOAL]. Keep tasks under 30 minutes each."
Big goals overwhelm.
30-minute tasks get done.
The difference:
Google use: "What is X?"
Coach use: "Challenge my thinking on X."
One gives answers.
The other develops judgment.
Most people use ChatGPT to avoid thinking.
Winners use it to think better.
