9 Brilliant Prompts I Wish Every Single ChatGPT User Knew

1. Create a System of Specific Learning

This Prompt has a Specific Purpose and any person using ChatGPT to Learn or Improve Anything will Love it.

I created this purely out of Frustration (and I’m sure you’ve felt this as well)

The Frustration was not knowing what information to ask for next to better understand the query I asked about or not knowing the reason why I don’t find this response helpful.

If you ever felt this same frustration or just want to use it for Learning and Improving Anything,

This is the Prompt;

After your response, Ask follow-up questions to deepen and progress the teaching and maintain a continuous dialogue until I am satisfied but don’t overwhelm me with too many questions (1 or two at a time).

And here is a Practical Example of me using this Prompt for you to better understand it

2. Finding Hidden Gems

If you are a creator, you’d know how hard it is to find new content ideas regularly that get alot of views and build you a Cult Following.

Yes ChatGPT can help you in this process but you need to Prompt it in a certain way.

Prompts like “Find me 10 new Content Ideas for my YouTube Channel about Cooking is just not going to work”

These Prompts have to be crafted using the ROCKSTAR Framework. I explain this in much more detail in this Article.

Here is a Prompt that I use to find Hidden Content Ideas

After I reply to these it starts to come up with topics and sub-topics for my main topic provided

Then I ask it to Provide the tables

After finding all the ideas, I spend 5–10 Minutes looking for the best one and then use this Prompt

These are all the Prompts

You are an excellent mind-mapper and an expert content strategist. I want you to create a comprehensive topical mindmap based on [this main topic] topic using the problem solutions, derivative ideas, and symbiotic ideas styles of ideation. This map should be broken down into sub-topics and further into specific ideas, ensuring that all aspects of the main topic are covered. The topical map should be detailed, organized, and easy to follow. Your goal is to help me find content ideas that thoroughly addresses the chosen topic from various angles. This topical mindmap will be used to guide the creation of content that is well-structured, authoritative, and optimized for [specific platform].

Each specific idea should be concise but descriptive enough to guide the creation of detailed content. Now ask me for the information you need to give me the best possible response. OUTPUT: Markdown format with #Headings, ##H2, ###H3, + bullet points, + sub-bullet points

3. Making AI Text Human

If you are someone who uses AI Written Content in your Daily Life and are tired of it getting Flagged as AI, then this is an absolute goldmine for you.

Here is the Prompt and I use it maybe 20 Times a Day

I need this rewritten in a human tone. Humans have fun when they write — robots don’t. Be conversational, empathetic, and occasionally humorous. Use idioms, metaphors, anecdotes, and natural dialogue. Add facts, insights, or good jokes that fit in. Also identify areas in this text where I can add Analogies, Examples or Case Studies (Academic Research Studies).

Keep this in mind that ChatGPT written content will always be caught by the machines no matter how many prompts you use. You have to add some manual human touches to make it good enough to please humans and fool machines which you can do by investing 10–20 minutes and make the content yours by adding your unique voice and style.

After editing, ask yourself these 4 Questions to ensure you have done a good enough job of editing

5. The Hook Generator

I use this all the time and it is probably one of my favorite prompt because as a content creator if you can’t grab attention of your audience, you have no point of creating content.

Might as well stop because it will not benefit you (it may be harsh but it’s true and I learned it the hard way)

Which is why I crated this prompt to help me create irresistible hooks that not only grab the attention of my viewer but also gets them invested into the rest of the content.

Here is the Prompt;

You are an experienced content creator and copywriter with a proven track record of crafting highly engaging posts that stop the scroll and drive massive engagement. Your goal is to create 8–12 hook options that spark curiosity, evoke emotion, and compel readers to want to learn more, specific to my niche *[Your Niche] *and the content I create [Paste the title of the post you’re thinking of Creating]

Relax, take a moment to consider the target audience, put yourself in their mindset, and follow this process step-by-step:

Carefully review the post/topic and identify the key insights, value propositions, or emotional angles that will resonate with the audience.

Experiment with powerful copywriting techniques to convey those key messages:

• Asking thought-provoking questions
• Making bold claims or contrarian statements
• Sharing shocking statistics or little-known facts
• Opening story loops that create anticipation
• Using pattern interrupts to jolt readers out of autopilot
• Ruthlessly edit and refine each hook to under 250 characters. Keep them punchy and concise.

Generate 8–12 unique hook options to provide a variety of compelling angles and approaches.

Constraints:

• Keep each hook under 250 characters
• Avoid jargon, buzzwords or overly complex language. Use conversational, everyday English.
• Be bold and intriguing without being inflammatory, disrespectful or “clickbaity”.
• Avoid using all caps, excessive emojis, or heavy punctuation. Let the words themselves do the work.
• Focus on sparking genuine curiosity, anticipation, or emotional resonance — not cheap tricks [Use the audience’s beliefs (right or wrong), problems, pains, desires, dreams, suspicions, fears]

Style guide:

• Use plain, straightforward language aiming for an 8th-grade reading level.
• Avoid unnecessarily complex words and convoluted phrases. Simplify.
• Keep tone confident and professional, but not overbearing or too enthusiastic.
• Avoid adverbs, passive voice, and unsubstantiated superlatives.
• No emojis or excessive punctuation. Use sparingly if needed.

Output format:

Please provide your output in the following format:

• Hook 1: [1–2 sentence hook]
• How to Proceed forward in 1–2 Lines
• Hook 2: [1–2 sentence hook]
