Title: 5 ChatGPT Prompts To Unlock Your Full Potential (For Peak Performance)
Achieve everything you’re capable of and win at life. But most people don’t. Most people operate at a fraction of their capability. They hang around in the comfortable middle; not desperate enough to make a change but not inspired enough either. Contentment and complacency are dangerously close together. See what you’re capable of this year. Make the decision to do less after you’ve seen what more looks like. Go big before you go home.
Use ChatGPT to unlock your full potential, with five prompts that will dig deep. Copy, paste and edit the square brackets in ChatGPT, and keep the same chat window open so the context carries through.
It’s not the things you start that make you successful. It’s the things you stop. Stop doing things that you shouldn’t be doing to make room for your superpowers to do their thing. Create space for opportunity and time to think. Remove anything that’s unnecessary, outdated or doesn’t fit the best version of you. Audit your schedule with this interrogative prompt:
In a typical week, I engage in [describe your main tasks and responsibilities at work, such as projects, meetings, and administrative duties]. Occasionally, I find myself handling [describe smaller, ad hoc tasks or responsibilities]. Outside work, my time is filled with [list any recurring personal activities, hobbies, and commitments]. My core goals include [briefly outline your core goals or desired achievements], and I aim to focus more on these areas. Please ask me five probing and clarifying questions, one after the other, to gain a deeper understanding of how I allocate my time. Based on my responses, provide direct and straightforward recommendations on which activities I should consider stopping, minimizing, or delegating. The goal is to optimize my schedule for more impactful work and personal growth.
Creating blank space in your calendar is essential for unlocking your full potential. Lions aren’t rushing around trying to catch prey. They are sharpening their claws, playing with their cubs, and getting some rest before pouncing when the time is right. Go offline for a while, then come back for ChatGPT’s help on how to grow your business. Ask for ideas and go forward with those you have a good feeling about:
My business specializes in [describe the nature of your business and the primary products or services offered]. Our target audience primarily consists of [describe your target audience, including any demographic, psychographic, or behavioral traits]. I’m seeking out-of-the-box, futuristic ideas for growth, potentially borrowing innovative concepts from industries like [mention any specific industries you’re interested in, such as technology, health, entertainment, etc.]. Please suggest bold, creative strategies that could set us apart or enhance our offerings. Feel free to draw on cutting-edge trends, technologies, or practices from other sectors. Which unique ideas could we experiment with to captivate our audience and expand our market presence?
Without other people you won’t go far. Any entrepreneur needs help from others in some way. Whether part of your team or contracted as freelancers, becoming better at leading will mean you can perform at the highest level, safe in the knowledge that all is well back at the ranch. Become a better leader by knowing how you’re doing right now:
I’m pasting a selection of my recent communications with my team and contractors below, including emails, Slack messages, and text messages, related to [context of communications, e.g., project updates, feedback sessions]. Please analyze the tone, clarity, and effectiveness of my messaging to assess my leadership communication. Focus on how well I convey objectives and expectations, provide support and guidance, motivate and engage the team, maintain an inclusive style open to feedback, and identify areas for improvement. Your task is to provide me with constructive feedback and actionable recommendations to enhance my leadership communication, highlighting patterns or specific adjustments needed to improve clarity, motivation, and leadership effectiveness.

With big plans come big problems. And that’s fine, as long as your capacity for solving them rises to match. You don’t want to be putting out the fires you’ve always put out. Instead, you want bigger and juicer ones coming your way. Big problems are a privilege. If you weren’t worthy of solving them, they wouldn’t have been sent for your attention. Thrive under any pressure with this prompt:
I’m preparing to tackle high-pressure business scenarios to sharpen my decision-making skills under stress. Initiate the discussion by presenting my first challenge: a complicated business scenario that requires quick thinking and strategic problem-solving, based on what you know about my business. I’ll respond with my solution or course of action. After I provide my solution, give me feedback on my approach and a score out of 10 based on creativity, practicality, and strategic insight. Then proceed to present 5 more challenges one at a time, each of which requires my response before being graded by you.
The only thing worse than setting small goals is achieving small goals. What a waste of your potential. Your goal shouldn’t be to slowly climb the ladder, win a new client that’s one level up, or get the press everyone else is getting. You’re better than that. Go bigger with your plans. Make them so big they scare you. Make them so big you have to censor yourself around small-minded people. Confide in ChatGPT and it will help you win:
I’m ready to set audacious goals that push the boundaries of what I believe is possible for my business. I want to dream bigger than I ever have, aiming for achievements that not only scare me but also require me to grow exponentially as a leader and innovator. Present me with a series of thought-provoking questions or exercises, one-by-one, that challenge my current thinking, inspire creativity, and unlock new levels of ambition. In this coaching style, help me identify untapped opportunities and envision groundbreaking initiatives that could redefine my industry. Encourage me to think in ways that might seem outlandish to the cautious and conventional, but are exactly the kind of transformative thinking my business needs to achieve unparalleled success. Deliver questions one at a time.
Build the life and business of your dreams by not settling for less. No one else’s version of success counts, you must live according to your definition. Maximize your time by removing anything unnecessary or outdated, then get new ideas of how to achieve more. Become a better leader and empower your team, then handle any challenges thrown your way with an elevated sense of confidence in your ability. Dream even bigger so you get out of those familiar ruts that are holding you back. What could be possible if you really went for it?
