Most people use Claude to generate ideas.

That’s the easy half.
The hard half is killing them.

Last year I had 47 “projects” open in Notion.
I shipped 4.

The 43 that died didn’t kill themselves — Claude did.

Idea generation is cheap. Idea killing is the bottleneck.

The number of ideas you’ve killed is more predictive of output than the number you’ve started.

10 rules that made Claude feel like a coworker, not a chatbot”
Most people use Claude wrong.

They type one line, get a mediocre answer, and decide AI isn’t for them.

The 10 rules in this carousel are what separated the 5% who got real output from the 95% who gave up:

→ Tell it who you are before you ask anything
→ Give it constraints, not just the goal
→ Let it ask YOU questions first
→ Show examples of what “good” looks like
→ End every prompt with “what did I miss?”

The other 5 are in the slides. One of them doubled my output overnight.

💬 Comment RULES and I’ll DM you the full 10-rule PDF + the prompt template I copy into every new chat.
