First step is to understand that the biggest barrier to adopting AI in your work isn’t tools or tech.

It’s inertia!

That default urge to do things the way you’ve always done them.

Need a new meal plan? Most people still book a nutritionist.

→ Smarter: prompt an AI tool for a fully personalized chart in 60 seconds.

Still doing competitor analysis by manually clicking through 20 product sites?

→ Smarter: Use Perplexity and NotebookLM to summarize key UX patterns, pricing models, and feature gaps in seconds. Get your first draft up and ready and engage your team to notch up the value of the analysis by multiple times.

Still spending hours writing, designing, or researching?

→ AI can cut that time in half — if you give it a seat at the table. Create a custom GPT, figure out a workflow involving Zapier, Perplexity, ChatGPT and Notion

Want clarity on news? Use AI to verify and compare sources.

This isn’t just about convenience.

It’s about creating mental flexibility.

Question the “default” way of doing something and make space for better, faster, smarter outcomes.

AI isn’t something you’ll one day be trained on.

It’s something you need to play with today.

Try it. Fail with it. Grow through it.
