I wish I had this
in school.
Some people read a paragraph once and get it. That has never been me. I read it, then read it again, and I still could not have explained it to anyone else. I needed to see it. So I stopped asking AI to explain things to me and started asking it to show me. Here is how to do it in ChatGPT.
THE VISUAL PROMPT LIST In ChatGPT, put one of these in front of your question. You are telling it how you want the answer to look. /handwritten Sketches the answer out like someone mapped it on paper for you. Try: /handwritten explain how metabolism works /make-sticky-notes Breaks the topic into sticky notes and walks you through it, one at a time. Try: /make-sticky-notes explain how digital marketing works /visualize-learning Anything you don't understand, you get to see it instead of read it. Try: /visualize-learning explain how white label licensing works /whiteboard For a step by step process. /flowchart For how one step leads to the next. /mind-map For one idea split into branches. /napkin-sketch For making a hard idea feel simple. /roadmap For getting someone from A to B. /decision-tree For helping people choose. /cheat-sheet For the kind of post people save. /iceberg For what people see versus what is really going on. MAKE UP YOUR OWN /flowchart show how a stranger goes from watching my reel to becoming a customer /cheat-sheet give me 10 prompts for writing better captions

Now make up your own
The part most people miss.
These are not magic words you have to memorize. Nobody is grading you. The slash is not a feature you have to switch on. You are telling AI how you want the information to look, and you can ask for any shape you want.
So write your own.
/flowchart show how a stranger goes from watching my reel to becoming a customer
/cheat-sheet give me 10 prompts for writing better captions
One idea, four pieces of content
Because you changed the format, not because you wrote more.
- Take the thing you keep explaining.The question you answer in every DM. Your offer, your process, one term people get stuck on.
- Run it through two or three formats.Same topic, different shape. A flowchart, a cheat sheet, an iceberg.
- Post what it gives you.A post. A carousel. A pin. A lesson inside your own group.
Run one today, then send me what it made you. I want to see what you come up with.
