Most people use ChatGPT like a fancier Google search bar.

They ask basic stuff. Get basic results.
And then wonder, “Is this really the AI everyone’s hyped about?”

Here’s the truth:
ChatGPT is only as smart as the way you talk to it.

Once you start giving it the right prompts—with context, personality, and clear intent—it goes from sounding robotic…
to acting like your executive assistant, business partner, and even creative therapist.

Over the past few months, I’ve been testing prompts that feel less like commands… and more like cheat codes for life and business.

Here are 5 of the wildest, smartest ones I use—and you probably haven’t tried yet.
