STOP SAYING “MAKE A PRESENTATION FOR ME.”

AI isn’t confused.
Your prompt is.

Use these smart prompts instead:
1. THE ANTI-CORPORATE DECK

Build a presentation on [TOPIC] for people who hate presentations.

Rules:
- 1 idea per slide, max 15 words
- Every claim needs a number (not "many" but "47")
- No jargon unless you define it immediately
- Suggest specific visuals ("line graph: 23%→67% in 90 days" not "growth image")

Structure: Hook slide → 6-8 insights with proof → "What this means" → Next step

Tone: Explaining to a smart friend, not reading a script.
2. THE RESEARCH BEAST

Create a presentation on [TOPIC] that looks like 40 hours of research.

Include:
- Real case studies (company names, exact outcomes)
- Stats with sources (institution, year)
- 3-5 "most people don't know" insights
- Competitor comparisons with numbers

Each slide: Surprising claim → Data proof → Why it matters

Make it Stanford-level credible, not Wikipedia summary.

Holy shit... my AI apps were eating 47GB of storage.

ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, and voice cloning apps cache entire models locally.

I used Claude to audit and clean it in 5 minutes.

Here are 8 prompts that freed up massive space: ↓
1. Storage Audit Prompt

"Analyze my iPhone storage breakdown and identify which AI apps are using the most space. Focus on apps with cached models, generated content, and offline data. Rank them by storage impact."

Most people have no idea ChatGPT caches 8GB+ locally.
2. Model Cache Clearing

"Write step-by-step instructions to clear ChatGPT's local model cache and conversation history backups without losing my actual chat threads. Include iOS-specific settings paths."

This alone freed 12GB for me.

I ASKED CHATGPT TO FIX MY LINKEDIN PROFILE.

It turned into a recruiter magnet in seconds.
No expensive tools, no paid boost.

USE THESE 7 PROMPTS TO GET HEADHUNTED ON LINKEDIN:
1. Profile Perception Audit

"Analyze my LinkedIn profile as if you're a potential client in [YOUR INDUSTRY]. Tell me exactly how I'm being perceived, what red flags exist, and what messaging is confusing or weak."

Why this works: Most profiles are written for YOU, not your buyer.
2. Headline Transformation

"Rewrite my LinkedIn headline using this framework: [WHO I HELP] get [SPECIFIC OUTCOME] without [COMMON PAIN POINT]. Make it one clear sentence. No buzzwords. No job titles."

90% of headlines are forgettable job titles. This makes you findable.

If Google is trying to make you pay for Gmail storage, do this before you upgrade.

I cleared almost 9GB in one afternoon
(14.9/15GB → 6GB).

No apps. No hacks.
Just a few settings most people never check.

Hope this saves you money like it did for me 👇
1. Find the real storage hogs inside Gmail

Go to your Gmail storage breakdown first:
- Visit drive.google.com/settings/stora…
- Check what's using space across Gmail, Drive, and Photos
- Click on "Gmail" to see your biggest culprits

Then in Gmail search bar, type:
- `has:attachment larger:10M` (finds emails over 10MB)
- Sort by size, select multiple, and delete what you don't need
- Try `larger:5M` or `larger:3M` for a more aggressive cleanup

Just clearing big attachments can free gigabytes instantly.

(FOLLOW ME FOR MORE LIKE THIS)
2. Nuke entire categories in bulk

Gmail sorts emails automatically use this to delete fast:
- Search: `category:promotions` (all promo emails)
- Search: `category:social` (Facebook, LinkedIn notifications)
- Search: `category:updates` (receipts, confirmations)
- Click the checkbox → "Select all conversations that match this search"
- Delete in one shot

These categories pile up over years most are safe to delete.
