5 steps to make 2024 your BEST year

As we stride into 2024, I want to share a personal moment that happened just 4 days ago.

On New Year's Eve, I was catching up with my cousin Adrien and updated him about where I was in life: 

👉 Happily growing my solo business 
👉 Enjoying family time with my 2 young kids 
👉 Helping my wife launch her own business 

As an entrepreneur himself, working 60h per week, he asked me how I managed to find time for all this. I explained my simple process and how I'd recommend he proceed if he wanted to make a change in 2024.

Now, I want to share it with you too!

NOW → 2 Steps for a Fresh Start:

1. Declutter Your Brain: List projects, goals, and tasks to clarify priorities.

2. Organize and Prioritize: Reorganize life's critical areas for better management.

THEN → 3 Habits to Keep the Flow:

3. Write Everything Down: Record thoughts and to-dos to avoid stress.

4. Curate Your Learnings: Organize notes for personal and business growth.

5. Reflect and Adapt: Regularly revise strategies for productivity.

How to make this really happen?

Good theory, right? But how do you effectively apply this process and maintain clear organization over time?

Well, to make this easy and intuitive, you need a seamless system to centralize everything.

Tip: How to write great AI prompts

Have you heard about the latest developments in AI prompt crafting?

I came across Notion's new comprehensive guide that presents a wide variety of methods to effectively utilize AI in your projects. I highly recommend exploring these techniques to enhance your interactions with AI, as mastering prompt writing can significantly improve the quality of AI-generated content.

Key insights include:

• To get the best results, prompts should be concise, clear, and avoid negative phrasing.

• Assigning an identity to the model (e.g., "You're a market analyst") can improve its responses.

• Adding details and anticipating potential errors or choices in the prompt can lead to more accurate and useful responses.

• Effort put into crafting good prompts is rewarded with more beneficial AI outputs.
