Prompt: Write about a recent moment where you felt slightly different than before.
Figuring out what’s going on in my life has been a bit of an adventure of late. I’m trying every which way to find some cohesion or through line to help guide me along. I’ve waffling all of the time.
This morning, I started writing out all of the things I could think of that I have going on in my life on little blue sticky notes when I got to work. Throughout the morning, whenever I had a minute to think about it, I’d add a sticky note. Then, I decided that it would be more efficient to do it digitally, so I start a Freeform board. Not satisfied enough with a bunch of digital blue squares strewn haphazardly across an infinite board, I asked ChatGPT to help me make sense of what I’d put down.
ChatGPT is incredibly positive and reassuring.
Then, I ran out of credits, given that I recently cancelled my subscription in an attempt to save a few bucks. I’m hoping one of the side effects will be less reliance on the help it provides.
When I got some credits back, I asked it to colour code things for me.
Writing these things out helped me see what’s been floating around in my head. A little assistance from ChatGPT was helpful in terms of categorizing those ideas.
My worry is that I won’t stick with the system, that I’ll try a different method of achieving the same thing. This, because I don’t think I know what I’m striving for exactly. I can’t have ChatGPT deciding that for me.
