DAY 1

The Method

Here's what the next 3 days are about.

I’m going to give you my actual plan. The tools I use. The systems I built. What I’m doing right now to stay ahead of what’s coming.

On Day 3, I’ll show you how to bring it all together.

But before we go anywhere, open your calendar. Block 15 minutes a day for the next 3 days. Same time if you can. Treat it like a client session. Non-negotiable.

The coaches who block the time finish. The ones who don’t, don’t. That’s it.

Block it now. Then keep reading.

Something Is Happening That Most Coaches Are Missing

Think back to early 2020.

A few people were paying attention to the changes happening overseas. Most weren’t. Life looked normal. Then, in three weeks, nothing was.

I think we’re in that same moment right now. But with AI.

I’ve been giving the comfortable version for too long. “AI is helpful for productivity.” That’s technically true. It’s also not what’s actually happening.

Here’s what’s actually happening.

How Fast This Is Moving

A year ago, AI could work independently on a task for about 10 minutes before needing a human.

Six months ago, that number was 1 hour.

The most recent measurement: 3 hours.

The trajectory shows AI working independently for days within a year. Weeks within two.

Dario Amodei, the CEO of Anthropic, the company behind Claude, publicly predicted AI will eliminate 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs within 1 to 5 years. Most people inside the industry think he’s being conservative.

Now. What does this mean for you?

Coaches and consultants have always sold two things: their knowledge and their time. AI is about to change the value of both. The coaches who understand this early will be in a completely different position than the ones who figure it out in two years.

We’re still early. That won’t last.

You Don't Need Multiple AI Models

Most coaches waste the first month of their AI journey doing the wrong thing. They spend it comparing tools.

ChatGPT or Claude? Grok or Gemini? DeepSeek or something else?

Here’s what I actually think. The difference between models is about 5%. Over time, they all converge. They’ll all get to a similar level of capability.

What matters isn’t which model you pick. What matters is how well you learn to work with one.

The model I use and recommend: Claude.

The company has a soul. They care about human evolution more than making a quick buck. And right now, for coaches and consultants specifically, it’s the best model available.

Use it. Stop switching.

Think Team Member, Not Bot

Here’s the real reason most coaches struggle to get results from AI.

They think of it as a robot that does things. Press a button, get an output, move on.

And because they think of it that way, they interact with it that way. Vague requests. No context. No feedback. Then they’re surprised when the output is vague and generic.

Think about it differently.

If you were hiring someone for your team right now, you wouldn’t just hand them a task and walk away. You’d tell them about your business. You’d explain who your clients are. You’d show them examples of what good work looks like. You’d give them feedback when they got it wrong. And you’d invest that time because you knew, in the long run, it would free you.

That’s how this works.

A team member you brief well, train over time, and give consistent feedback to becomes someone who can operate without you for most of what they do. The same is true here.

And the upside? The skills you build with Claude would otherwise cost you $3,000 to $5,000 a month in talent. You’re building that now. At no cost.

Reverse Prompting

You know which tool to use. But knowing the tool doesn’t get you the output. How you prompt it does.

Here’s the mistake almost every coach makes.

They go in with this: “Write me a follow-up email for a discovery call that didn’t close. Make it warm. Keep it under 150 words.”

The AI guesses what you want. The output is generic. You spend 20 minutes editing it. It still doesn’t sound like you.

This is Push Prompting. You push the task at the AI and hope for the best.
So what actually works?

Reverse Prompting. You flip it. Instead of telling the AI what to do, you let the AI ask you what it needs to know first.

Try this: “I need to write a follow-up email for a discovery call that didn’t close. Before you write anything, ask me 3 to 4 questions so you have the context to do this well.”

The AI asks the right questions. You answer in 2 minutes. The output is near-perfect on the first pass. No editing.

Today's Challenge:

Reverse Prompt Your First Team Member

Whatever stage your business is at right now, there’s a team member you need.

A writer. A social media manager. An assistant. Someone who handles the work that drains you so you can focus on the work that grows the business.

You can start building that team member today inside Claude.

But before you build the skill, you need to know who you want to hire.

So that’s your challenge.

Pick one team member you’d like to bring on. Use the Reverse Prompt formula to describe to Claude what you need: what their role is, what they’d work on, what great output from them would look like.

Don’t try to build the full skill yet. Just have the conversation. Get clear on who this person is and what they do.

10 to 15 minutes. Do it before tomorrow.

If you skip it, Day 2 will still make sense. But you’ll be reading theory instead of using the thing. And theory doesn’t move your business.

Tomorrow: Building Your AI Brain

Today you learned how to work with AI as a team member rather than a bot.

Tomorrow is where the real shift happens.

You’re going to build your AI Brain. One document that teaches any AI who you are, how you communicate, and what you’re focused on. You build it once, and every AI tool you ever use already knows you.

Most coaches will never think to do this. The ones who do are the ones who can move fast when things change.

See you tomorrow.
