Key outcomes?
Every time you open ChatGPT or Claude or Gemini, you're starting from zero.The AI has no idea who you are, what you've built, what you're struggling with, or what actually matters to you.
So it gives you generic advice. Surface-level strategies. One-size-fits-all answers that fit no one.
The fix: Context documents. The best AI outputs come from the best inputs. When you give AI deep context about who you are - your
When AI Knows the following it stops being a generic assistant and starts being your strategic parter:
What success actually looks like for you,
What's working and what isn't,
What energizes you vs. drains you,
What you're secretly hoping for but haven't said out loud
Values, your goals, your constraints, your dreams

🧭 METHODOLOGY
Key steps
Step 1: Start with your Personal Constitution (Prompt 01) Open ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini in a new conversation (We recommend Claude). Paste the full prompt below and hit enter.
Step 2: Let the AI interview you - you can even use voice mode. Answer honestly, not aspirationally. This takes 20-40 minutes the first time. We recommend using voice mode to record your responses rather than typing - it’s quicker and will feel more natural.
Step 3: Create a final summary document. When you're done, ask the AI to generate the final constitution document and copy that output somewhere safe (a Google Doc, Word Doc etc)
Step 4: Work through the other prompts one at a time Do each in a separate conversation, in whatever order is most relevant to you right now. Career and Business are the highest-leverage ones for most people. Each interview takes 15–30 minutes. Same process: let it ask, answer honestly, then ask for the synthesised document at the end.
Step 5: Save everything in one folder Create a folder called something like "AI Context Vault" or "My Context Docs." Save each document there with a clear name - Personal Constitution, Career Context, Business Context, etc. This is your vault.
Step 6: Using the docs in future conversations Whenever you start a session where you want deep, personalised advice, paste the relevant document at the top of the conversation before asking your question. Say: "Here's my [Career/Business/Energy] context. Please review this before we begin." Then ask your question. The quality difference is immediate.
Step 7: Stack contexts for complex decisions If you're working on something that touches multiple areas - say, a big career decision that affects your family, or a 2026 goal that spans your business and personal life - paste both relevant documents in. The more context the AI has, the sharper the output.
Step 8: Refresh at least once a year Your context goes stale. Block 30 minutes each quarter (or at minimum each year) to re-run the prompts for your most-used documents, or just edit the saved document directly with what's changed.
PROMPT KITCHEN #1 - PERSONAL CONSTITUTION (COPY THIS)
I want you to help me articulate my Personal Constitution- the core values, beliefs, and principles that define
who I am and how I want to move through the world. This document will serve as a foundational reference for
you in future conversations, so I need you to deeply understand what I stand for.
Please interview me with thoughtful, probing questions. Go beyond surface-level. I want to uncover what I truly
believe, not just what sounds good. Ask follow-up questions to push deeper. Challenge me if my answers seem
vague or inconsistent.

establish who I am at my core.

On the Uncomfortable Stuff:
What do I secretly value that I'm embarrassed to admit?
What tension exists between my stated values and my actual behavior?
