Copy this into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, fill in the [BRACKETS] and see what you get. No sign-up. The other 12 steps, examples and checklist unlock after purchase.

Setup: Getting started

[WHO YOU ARE] [CURRENT SITUATION] [TOP 3 OUTCOMES] [PAIN POINTS] [TIME AVAILABLE PER WEEK] [TOOLS YOU USE] [EXAMPLES OF EVERYDAY TASKS] [NON-NEGOTIABLES] [SUCCESS BY 30 DAYS]
Act as a practical coach and convert this into a sharp one‑page plan for using AI that avoids fluff and sets measurable expectations.
Work through it like this:
1) Translate [TOP 3 OUTCOMES] into SMART goals and define “done” for each. 2) Map [PAIN POINTS] to fast, low‑risk AI uses (emails, planning, learning, writing, decisions). 3) Note [NON-NEGOTIABLES] as hard boundaries and failure conditions. 4) Set a weekly rhythm from [TIME AVAILABLE PER WEEK] (sessions, minutes, checkpoints). 5) Identify 3–5 everyday tasks from [EXAMPLES OF EVERYDAY TASKS] to pilot first. 6) Define success evidence and where it will live (docs, inbox, calendar, files).
Give me the output as:
- Goals Snapshot (sections): Purpose; Top 3 SMART Goals; Success Metrics Table (columns: Metric | Baseline | 30‑day Target | Evidence Location); Pilot Tasks (bullets); Guardrails & Non‑negotiables (bullets); Weekly Cadence (when, duration, review);
- Tools Map (tools from [TOOLS YOU USE] and how they’ll be used with AI, bullets);
- Risks & Mitigations (top 3, one‑line mitigations);
- Archive & Reuse Plan (where outputs will be stored and named pattern).
Quality bar: Concrete, testable and brief; any colleague could run a week from it without asking you questions.
If any field is missing or vague, ask up to 5 crisp questions; if unanswered, mark MISSING and proceed with safe defaults.

WHO IT'S FOR

New Zealand beginners who’ve heard about ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini but aren’t getting good results and want a safe, reliable way to use AI for everyday tasks.

WHAT YOU'LL MAKE

  • Goals Snapshot
  • Assistant Card
  • Context Brief
  • AI Instruction Template v1
  • Draft Packet
  • Delivery Bundle

HOW IT WORKS

Do Steps 3–6 to produce a Draft Packet fast: fill the Context Brief, complete the good-prompt formula, pick a task from the menu, and generate your draft.

13 steps, each building on the last: Setup: Getting started → Setup: Choose your assistant and guardrails → Capture: Context intake worksheet → Plan: The good-prompt formula → Plan: Everyday task menu → Production: Draft with the formula → Production: Clarifying Q&A loop → Production: Personalisation pass (your voice) → Review: Checking the answers → Review: Red flags and fixes → Delivery: Package and send → Reuse: My personal toolkit → Maintenance: Level up. Includes two worked examples, fix-it prompts and a quality checklist.

WHAT IT WON'T DO

This kit won’t replace professional advice or specialised automation; for legal, medical, financial, HR, or high-stakes policy decisions—or when you need integrations or compliance sign-off—consult a qualified professional.

DELIVERY

Instant email with your guided kit page and a downloadable file. Works with ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini (free or paid), including on your phone.

This is a prompt toolkit you run yourself, not software or professional advice.
