📰 Want to try something simple? (2 minutes)

Quick follow-up from Tuesday...

We talked about how your direction does not need to be complicated to be correct. It was encouraging to see how many of you are starting to notice a small "lean" toward one simple idea.

Most people think they need to learn every feature of a tool like ChatGPT before they can use it. But the truth is, you only need to know enough to help you with that one simple direction you have noticed.

If you are leaning toward helping others, or organizing your own hobbies, you can ask ChatGPT to help you see the first few steps without any of the tech stress.

Here is a simple way to test your direction. Open ChatGPT and type this exactly:

👉 "Give me 3 simple ways to [your interest] without [what worries you]"

For example, you might type:

"Give me 3 simple ways to share my gardening tips without starting a complex website."

I tried this myself earlier today. I asked:

"Give me 3 simple ways to help a local charity with their writing without feeling overwhelmed."

Here is what ChatGPT suggested:

1.Offer to write one short "thank you" note template they can reuse.

2.Help them clean up the spelling on their monthly flyer.

3.Write a 3-sentence description for their next event.

Notice how small those steps are? They do not require a grand plan. They just require one simple "lean."

Speaking of keeping things simple, I finally have a presentable personal website. I wanted it to be a place that feels calm and easy to navigate, just like our conversations here.

If it helps, you can see how I put these ideas into practice. When you are ready, and with no pressure at all, you can go check it out at bobcaine.com.

If you try the ChatGPT prompt with your own interest, hit reply and tell me one thing it suggested. Even a one-word reply is enough. You will not bother me, and I read every response.

See you at the bank. 💰
