Everyone needs a confidence boost every now and then. Entrepreneurs included. If you’re feeling down on your convictions, unsure of your path, and you seem to have misplaced your business mojo, this one’s for you. You don’t need to rely on friends, family or colleagues to remind you of your awesomeness. Let ChatGPT rewire your brain to a more confident channel with these five prompts.
For best results, use the prompts in order, in the same ChatGPT conversation. That way it will create responses based on the entire conversation. Open ChatGPT, or an alternative large language model, and get ready to feel superhuman.
Prompt ChatGPT to give you more confidence
Create the movie of your life
There are no boring scenes in movies. Protagonists act with intention, every moment has a purpose, every line makes an impact. When the movie of your entrepreneurial journey is inevitably made, it’s going to be just the same. Those mornings where you wake up and snooze the alarm don’t make an appearance. Only your best and brightest version need apply for the title role. Use this first prompt to introduce yourself to ChatGPT and get a synopsis of the movie of your life, the one in which you star.
“Create a dramatic synopsis for a movie where the main character is a hero based on me, [your name]. Within this movie, I am on a mission to [describe your main business or life goal], overcoming challenges brought by [describe your one main challenge]. I am helped along my journey by people including [outline your closest few friends, colleagues or family members]. Make the storyline inspirational and result in ultimate victory, both for me as the main character but also for the world as this mission comes to fruition and benefits everyone.”
Evaluate your key skills
What do you do when you feel unconfident? How do you think, what do you say, what actions do you take? Chances are they are less than optimal. You make smaller decisions, dream well within your capability and don’t take chances or put yourself forward. But that’s a waste of your talents. Match your existing skills with unwavering confidence and it’s a different story. Together, confidence and proficiency multiply. Tell ChatGPT your proficiencies for a reminder of why you have no reason not to be confident.
“Throughout my journey so far I have picked up skills from research, education and experience. These skills are [describe your key skills in detail]. Sometimes I forget that these skills are valuable and it leads me to feel unconfident. Can you outline three reasons why each of my skills is valuable and include options for how I could apply them to make more progress? I need reminding of my powers so I don’t underestimate them.”
Design your superhero character
In a parallel universe (or maybe the movie of your life) there is a superhero version of you. They look incredible, they take no prisoners and they are always in their full power. Bring that version to life using ChatGPT. Let it choose a name, an outfit, a sidekick and a personality for your alter-ego. Imagine that version of you showing up when you feel like you need to step into someone else’s shoes. How much better would life be if you channeled their confidence all the time?
“Create a superhero character based on the skills I described, based on me, [your name]. Give this superhero character a name, an outfit and a sidekick. Describe this character’s personality and explain why they have the power to be so heroic.”
Listen to your eulogy
One day you won’t be here, and neither will anyone you know. But if your mission on earth is complete, one stint will suit you fine. Set up for success with the end in mind by getting ChatGPT to write your eulogy. It knows all about you, now let it figure out the mark you want to leave and the people you want to have helped, whipping up a powerful speech that will sum up the life you lived. All you have to do is work back from there, putting in the work today that makes this future reading accurate. Feel the calm sense of knowing that it’s totally possible.
“Act as if today is my funeral and write my eulogy, that will be read by a beloved friend. Based on the above, include how I made a difference to the world, how I made people feel, and what they will miss about me. Describe how my legacy will live on even after I’m gone.”
Get a motivational pep talk
If you could hire any person in the world as your personal, motivational coach, who would it be? Someone who inspires you, whose books you read or whose films you watch. People whose wisdom always seems to speak to your soul. This prompt will give you a motivational pep talk in their unique style. Based on the information you’ve given ChatGPT so far, it will know exactly what to create. For extra confidence, enter the script into a voice cloning tool to get it read aloud like them too.
“Act as if you are a motivational coach, tasked with giving me a pep talk to prepare me for my day. Act as if I am feeling unconfident and unmotivated, and with what you know about me and my mission it’s your role to get me ready to attack it. Use the style of [your favourite well-known motivational speaker] to deliver this message.”
How to become more confident using ChatGPT
You’re the main character in the movie of your life, who knows what they are capable of. You can picture your superhero self, you know what your life will represent and you’re working towards being missed when you’re gone. Your favourite motivational speaker has got you pumped and ready to go.
