Common mistake most creators make:

They hand AI the pen and say, “Write my post.”

Then complain that it sounds robotic, generic, or just… mid.

Here’s the truth:

AI isn’t here to replace your voice.

It’s here to refine and redefine your thinking.

When you prompt AI, use it like a creative sparring partner.

Not a content factory.

Instead of saying:

“Write me a post about consistency.”

Say this:

“Break my idea [insert idea] on consistency. Give me 3 stronger angles that sound like me.”

Now it’s not writing for you — it’s brainstorming for you.

Use this every time you’re brainstorming or stuck.

1️⃣ Start with your idea
→ “I want to write about burnout recovery.”

2️⃣ Tell it your goal
→ “I want it to sound raw, not motivational.”

3️⃣ Then challenge it
→ “Break my angle. Suggest 3 spicier takes that keep my tone.”

You’ll be shocked how much better your ideas get before you even hit post.

Also try the prompt within this newsletter with your AI:

If your prompt is lazy, your output will be too.

But when you make it collaborative, it stops guessing and starts co-creating, brainstorms ideas with you and helps you develop them on your own.

That’s how pros use it.

Not as a direct writer.

As a creative mirror.
