If you’re still typing “Write me a blog post” — you’re using ChatGPT wrong. AI is only as powerful as your prompt. And the difference between average and excellent? It's not the tool. It’s how you use it. Here’s how to stop treating ChatGPT like a chatbot — and start using it like a personal AI strategist: 🧠 Prompt Structure ↳ “Assume the role of [Expert Persona], write a [Format] on [Topic] using [Tone] for [Audience].” 🎯 Temperature Setting ↳ 0.1 = Precise & focused ↳ 1.0 = Creative & random 🔍 Role Play Use Cases ↳ Act like Elon Musk, a science tutor, a UX consultant, or even a strict editor. 📌 Prompting Techniques ↳ Use fill-in-the-blank, multiple choice, ordering, prediction, open-ended Qs — not just instructions. ✍️ Writing Styles ↳ Go beyond “formal” — try persuasive, inspirational, humorous, narrative. 🔄 Plugins & Extensions ↳ Use AskYourPDF, Zapier, ShowMe, and GPT for Docs to level up what GPT can do for you. 🧠 Avoid Plagiarism ↳ Tools like OpenAI Classifier, GPTZero, and Originality.ai can help keep your work ethical. This isn’t prompt engineering. This is creative direction — for AI. — How often do you adjust your prompt style or temperature?
