I was drowning in tabs.

Not the browser kind, though I had 47 of those open, too. I mean the mental tabs. Client emails are waiting for replies. Half-written article drafts. Research rabbit holes. Meeting notes scattered across three apps. Every morning, I’d fire up ChatGPT and start from scratch: “Hey, help me outline this…” “Wait, summarize this article…” “Actually, draft a professional email…”

By noon, I’d spend more time prompting than producing. The AI was powerful, but my process was a chaotic mess.

Then one Tuesday, while rebuilding the same research brief for the third time, it hit me: I was hiring a brilliant assistant and giving them amnesia every five minutes. I wasn’t the problem. My system was.

We’ve been sold a lie about AI.

The marketing promises a magical genie, just ask and ye shall receive. The reality? Without structure, ChatGPT becomes another shiny object that creates work instead of eliminating it.
