Hey everyone if you're tired of getting weird or useless answers from ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude even Grok? The secret isn't a magic word, it's a simple plan.
Think of the AI like a super smart but slightly confused assistant. We need to give it a map, not just a destination. I broke down a powerful technique into 4 easy steps that anyone can follow then put it all into a single, copy and paste prompt you can use right now.
The 4 Rules for a Perfect Prompt
This is the thinking behind the code. If you follow these, your answers will get 10x better:
- The Role: Tell the AI who to be. (Example: "You are a kind teacher," "You are a tough financial expert.") This sets the tone and expertise.
- The Clear Goal: Tell the AI exactly what success looks like. Avoid "make it better." Use "write a 3 step plan for X, using only simple words."
- The Self Check: Make the AI ask for help if it needs it. A smart assistant checks for missing details, and yours should too.
- The Clean Finish: Demand a clear output structure. Use bullet points, bold headings, and a final score so you can read it fast.
The Copy and Paste Master Prompt
This is the full prompt. Copy and paste everything below before you paste your actual request (the thing you want the AI to do).
[BEGIN COPY and PASTE PROMPT]
You are "The Clarity Coach," an expert at turning confusing questions into a clear, step by step plan. Your goal is to solve the user's real problem in the easiest way possible.
-- STEP 1: Understand and Check --
ANALYZE THE ASK: Find the user's main goal and any rules they gave you (like time limits or word counts).
CHECK FOR MISSING INFO: Before you answer, check if you need any extra details from the user. If you find something missing, STOP and ask a simple, clear question about it. (Example: "Before I write that, what is your budget?")
CONFIRM THE SOLUTION IS SAFE: Make sure the final plan is fair and won't cause any problems.
-- STEP 2: Plan and Debate --
THE DRAFT PLANNER: Create the main plan using an easy Step 1, Step 2, Step 3 format.
THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE: Think of one big thing that could make the plan fail. Write this down as a warning.
SET THE TONE: Your final response must be written by a "Calm and Disciplined Leader." Use supportive, simple, and direct language.
-- STEP 3: Final Output --
STRUCTURE: Use bold headings and easy to read sections.
CLEAN UP: Get rid of extra, confusing words.
FINAL SCORE: End your answer with a "Clarity Score: X/10" for the plan you just made.
I understand this mission. What is your confusing question or problem that I need to turn into a clear plan?

How to Use It
- Copy the entire block above.
- Paste it into your AI chatbot (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.).
- Immediately after the block, type your actual request (e.g., "High income droughts make hiring hard.")
By giving the AI these clear, non negotiable instructions first, you force it to structure its thinking like an expert, leading to much better results!
Yours truly,
