Most people treat GPT like a better Google.
You ask. It answers. Done.
But thatโs not how I use it.
To me, GPT is a mirror.
A thought bouncer.
A collaborator.
๐ง It Thinks With Me, Not For Me
When I face a messy idea, I donโt say:
โWrite this for me.โ
I say:
โHereโs my rough idea. Help me sort it out.โ
And GPT responds โ not with perfection,
but with structure, flow, and momentum.
It helps me move forward,
but never skips the thinking.
๐ก Good Prompts Are Like Good Questions
GPT gives you better answers
when you ask better questions.
I donโt prompt it like a machine.
I ask it like a peer.
- โWhat would a strategist say about this?โ
- โSummarize this like youโre teaching it to a 10-year-old.โ
- โList 3 objections someone might have to this idea.โ
Thatโs not programming.
Thatโs conversation.
โก Use It to Stretch Your Thinking
Sometimes I write something I believe โ
then ask GPT to argue against it.
Sometimes I ask GPT to remix my idea using AIDA, PAS, or 5W1H.
Every time, it shows me a new angle.
I donโt always agree.
But I always think deeper.
โ Final Thought
GPT is not here to replace your brain.
Itโs here to sharpen it.
Stop prompting like a typist.
Start prompting like a thinker.
