28 Best AI Prompts I've Ever Used

I first used ChatGPT back when it launched in November 2022. 6 months later, I nearly applied for a job as a "prompt engineer". $250K a year for talking to AI. Wild. But I would have had to move to San Fran. That wasn't happening.

Since then, I've lost count of how many times I've "chatted" with an OpenAI model, Claude, Grok, DeepSeek, Ollama. And all the other LLMs I've used.

Also, I've lost count of how many prompts/templates I've saved on my computer.

Want to guess?

Writing this, it's 302!

300+ prompts I've saved.

But that's not the craziest part.

It's how many I use each day, week, month and year. I went through my chat history. Also, looked at the Chatbots I've built, reviewed my automations. And the SOPs in Notion.

It's 28!

TWENTY-EIGHT out of 300+ prompts.

Madness!

Apply The 80/20 To AI Prompts

You may have heard of the 80/20 Principle, the Pareto Principle:

Roughly 80% of effects come from 20% of causes

Everyday Items: In your wardrobe, you wear 20% of your clothes 80% of the time.

Business Revenue: 80% of a company's profits come from 20% of its customers.

Reading: 80% of the value you get from a book usually comes from 20% of its content.

Social Life: You spend 80% of your social time with 20% of the people you know.

Household Chores: 80% of the mess in your home comes from 20% of the items.

Learning: 80% of what you use in any skill comes from 20% of what you learned.

80/20 Applied To Prompt Engineering

80% of your AI results come from 20% of your prompting techniques.

The most impactful elements are usually clear instructions. Specific context and well-defined output format.

Sometimes, it's more like 90/10. 90% of the results come from 10% of the inputs.

That's what I've found

9.36% of the prompts I've saved. 28 out of the 302, I use well over 80% of the time.

The other 20% are one-off prompts.

So, that said, why are these 28 prompts so impactful?

Amazing Prompts To Make Your Life Better

Before I go into this. It's worth telling you what I do.

I run my own business. And AI Automation Agency. And come from a software development background. I've been coding and building automations since 2007.

Even won the 2008 innovation award.

Why am I telling you this?

Because a lot of the prompts I use on a daily and weekly basis are business-related.

So if you're looking for more general ones. These prompts might not be for you.
