A simple way to make every AI tool work better for you

Published 17 days ago • 2 min read

Hey Reader,

During one of my daily rounds of AI research this week, I ran across a tutorial on how to create a master prompt to use with ChatGPT.

The idea was simple:

Ask ChatGPT (or any LLM) to interview you, gather information about your writing style and tone, your brand identity, and ongoing work projects, and combine it all into a single document.

You could then upload the resulting PDF each time you start a new chat.

As a daily AI user, it seemed like overkill since those concepts are already stored in memory. But it still sounded interesting, so I took it to ChatGPT.

Here’s what I found...

This idea of developing a master prompt is perfect for beginners who have no history with AI tools.

For anyone who has a favorite LLM and uses it regularly, it’s not necessary.

But I never want to waste a good idea, so I found a way to make it more useful for experienced users.

The Beginner "Master Prompt"

If you’re brand-new to AI, ChatGPT won’t know your writing style yet or have your preferences saved.

You can use this “master prompt” to create that foundation. I expanded it to limit the number of questions and give them to you one at a time.

Master Prompt
​
​Help me create a simple, personalized master prompt I can use in any AI tool. Ask me one question at a time. Ask no more than 8 questions total.
​
Focus on:
1. My goals and how AI can help
2. My writing style
3. My tone and personality
4. My audience
5. Formatting preferences
6. My typical workflow
7. My tool preferences
8. Anything else you need to develop my profile
​
After all questions are answered, combine my responses into a one-page master prompt I can unload or copy/paste into any model.

Tip: If the chat asks too many questions, you can instruct it to stop at any point and create the document.

Shortcut for Experienced Users

For those of us using AI consistently, the system already understands a lot about how we work.

However, having a simple, portable, one-page AI style guide you can copy into any model or workflow could be a time-saver.

You can use it when…

  • You’re testing a new LLM
  • You’re building an API workflow (like n8n or Zapier)
  • You want consistent tone across multiple platforms

Instead of ChatGPT interviewing you about your preferences, you can use this prompt.

Prompt for Experienced Users​
​
I already use AI tools regularly and have an established writing style and workflow. Generate a concise, one-page "AI Identity Profile" that I can use with any model.
​
The profile should include:
1. My voice and tone
2. My audience
3. My formatting preferences
4. My brand and mission
5. My common use cases for AI
6. Any boundaries I've set for content
7. My preferred tools, platforms, and workflows
​
Ask me any questions you need to clarify what you already know about me. Ask one question at a time, but ask no more than 5.
​
After I answer all questions, combine everything into a single, portable master prompt. Keep it to one page, clearly structured for cut/paste or upload into any new LLM.

Try it this week

If you want to challenge yourself a bit, try running one of the prompts above and see what kind of portable master prompt you get.

Ask yourself:

  • Does this sound like me?
  • Would it help me stay consistent with new tools?
  • Do I need to tweak anything?

You might be surprised how helpful it is to see your tone and preferences reflected back to you in a single document.

If you found building your own master prompt helpful, I’d love to hear how it worked for you.

Until next week,
​Tanya

Remote beach with a rocky shoreline, clear water, dramatic clouds, and dense green coastline.

Hey Reader, This week, I want to talk about a topic that tends to bring up mixed feelings: network marketing. Some people talk about negative experiences: pushy tactics, pressure to recruit, or endless messages from friends selling products they don’t want. There are approaches in the industry that make people uncomfortable. I’ve seen a few of them, too. But I’ve also worked alongside people who are world-class professionals who lead with integrity. I’ve always believed in sharing things that...

A cloudy beach sunset in hues of blue and pink. The wet shoreline reflects the colors.

I know I normally talk about ways to work from anywhere, how to stay productive, and how to automate your business with AI. Today I want to chat about why it’s important to me to have a business that only requires a laptop and a good internet connection. And why I want that for you, too. My husband and I dreamed for years about living abroad before we finally took the leap, sold most of what we owned, and bought a sailboat. This month, it’s been a year since we left the United States to...

I’ve noticed changing sentiment about AI.There are still YouTube videos screaming that you can make a million bucks, but many are already tired of it.Tired of robotic AI voices…Tired of strange videos…Tired of sloppy writing.However, I don’t want to let all the noise distract us from the opportunity in front of us.It’s a rare gift to stand at the beginning of something truly transformative.Many of us remember the early Internet years, when building a website was hard work and it wasn’t much...
