Prompts to Gain Absolute Clarity on Your Business Decisions

For entrepreneurs and founders, clarity is the real superpower. When you're pulled in every direction—by partners, ideas, and opportunities—your biggest challenge isn't execution, it's focus. These ChatGPT prompts are crafted to help you cut through noise, align your actions with your true goals, and consistently make better decisions. Each prompt below acts as a practical tool to simplify your decision-making process and protect your energy for what really matters.

1. Define Your Victory Condition

Before you can make the right calls, you need a single, crystal-clear goal. This prompt helps you define the one outcome that turns every other decision into a simple yes or no. It's your automatic decision filter and energy protector.

Example:
"Using everything you know about my goals, what's the one metric and result that means I’m winning?"

2. Get Three Perspectives That Matter

Instead of asking everyone for advice and drowning in opinions, imagine three key perspectives: your harshest critic, most loyal fan, and future successful self. Use this prompt to simulate their viewpoints and get the only feedback that actually moves the needle.

Example:
"Play out how my critic, fan, and future self would grade this choice I’m about to make."

3. Calculate Real Opportunity Cost

Every yes is also a no to something else. This prompt exposes the true cost of your choices—lost revenue, neglected relationships, or reputational risk—so you're not blindsided later.

Example:
"If I go with this partnership, what specific sacrifices am I making?"

4. Prepare for Future Distractions

Success multiplies options, but more options often kill focus. With this prompt, you proactively name the shiny but off-track opportunities that will inevitably show up and prepare your future self to say no with confidence.

Example:
"List three future distractions and the words I’ll use to decline them when they arise."
