AI Prompt of the Week ✨

Roast Me, AI—But Make It Insightful 🔥

Sometimes, we learn the most from a little tough love. This week's prompt came from one of our live Unlimited calls and invites ChatGPT to roast you, highlighting your quirks, blind spots, and habits in a hilarious and revealing way. The goal? A lighthearted but brutally honest mirror that might spark some self-awareness and growth.

The Prompt:

Why This Matters:

✅ Break the Echo Chamber: AI often mirrors us, but this forces it to challenge us instead.
✅ Spot Blind Spots: Sometimes, the best insights come wrapped in humor.
✅ Have a Laugh: Self-awareness doesn’t have to be serious—let AI remind you not to take yourself too seriously.

Dare to take the roast? You might just come out the other side with a new perspective—and a few laughs. 😆🔥

Creativity

Steal Like an AI: Remix, Reimagine, Reinvent 🎭

Originality is a myth. Every great idea is built on the fragments of what came before it—reassembled, reshaped, and given new life. This week, let's take inspiration from AI’s ability to remix and reimagine ideas in unexpected ways.

The Experiment:

🔄 Remix an Existing Idea – Take something you’ve already created—a piece of writing, a video, a business idea—and ask AI, "What’s the opposite of this? How could I make this absurd? How would this look in a different medium?"

🧠 Steal Like an Artist – Pick a creator, thinker, or brand you admire. Feed their work into AI and ask, “How would this idea apply to my world?” Borrow, blend, and adapt.

🎭 Force an Unusual Connection – Take two unrelated things—medieval knights and personal branding, jazz music and productivity, AI and spirituality. Now, ask, “How could these two things inspire something new?”

⚡ AI as Your Creative Thief – Give AI an idea and prompt it: "How would this concept evolve if I rewrote it for a different audience, industry, or time period?" See what unexpected connections emerge.

This week, let’s stop chasing originality and start remixing reality. The best creators are masterful curators of possibility and energy.

Spirituality

The Wisdom of the Fool: Embracing Beginner’s Mind 🤹‍♂️

In many spiritual traditions, the fool isn’t ignorant—he's the one closest to wisdom. He’s willing to stumble, ask naïve questions, and step into the unknown without fear. The Zen concept of Shoshin (Beginner’s Mind) teaches that the moment we believe we already know, we close ourselves off to deeper understanding.

The Practice:

🎭 Adopt the Fool’s Perspective – Where in your life do you assume you already know? Approach it as if you were completely new. Ask, “What if I’m wrong? What haven’t I considered?”

🌀 Embrace Being Bad at Something – Choose an area where you resist starting because you fear looking foolish. Try anyway. The willingness to be bad is the first step to mastery.

🔄 Challenge Your Own Beliefs – Pick a strong opinion you hold and ask, "What would a completely opposite viewpoint teach me?" You don’t have to change your mind—just stretch it.

🌊 Flow with Uncertainty – Instead of grasping for control, practice surrendering to the unknown. Let go of needing to “figure everything out” and allow life to surprise you.

This week, let’s abandon the need to be experts. True wisdom comes from being open to rediscovering everything.

What might you see with fresh eyes?

Life Update

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on the idea that we don’t always need to chase answers—they reveal themselves when we create space to listen.

This past week, I’ve noticed how much clarity comes not from thinking harder but from allowing. In conversations, decision-making, even in the smallest moments of stillness, there’s a quiet knowing underneath all the noise.

I’ve been leaning into this—trusting that the next step doesn’t need to be forced, only noticed. And when you stop grasping, it’s incredible how naturally the right things unfold.

Where in your life could you create more space for clarity to arise? I’d love to hear how this is showing up for you.

With love and gratitude ❤️‍🔥🙏,
Colin
