Some prompts have been with you for a year or more. They open with a grand persona for the AI, add a few rules in capital letters, and finish with a request to think it all through. They worked well once, and lately the results feel slightly off.

  • So practical and easy to implement!

  • Practical Secrets for Peak Performance (without the macho nonsense)

    Amantha Imber's "How I Work" podcast is a goldmine for productivity enthusiasts. The episode featuring Dr. Gabriella Rosen Kellerman on thriving in uncertain times was particularly illuminating.

I was struck by Kellerman's insights on prospection as a trust-building tool for leaders, and her emphasis on recognition as "almost a vaccine for a crisis of mattering."
