If you had a nickel for every time you heard “you need a mentor”, what color would your Bugatti be?

The reason we hear it all the time is simple: mentors are effective. 97% of individuals with a mentor say they find the experience to be a valuable one. The problem is that a good mentor is very hard to find.

The good news is that we can use finely-tuned prompts on ChatGPT to turn it into our free personal mentor. Here’s how:

1. Tell ChatGPT it is a professional mentor
In the “real” world, when you seek advice, you look for experts in that field. Treat ChatGPT in the same way.

Prompt: “You are a professional life coach and mentor. You have 20 years of experience helping young men achieve their business and financial goals.

You are a skilled active listener. You are motivating by challenging and empowering your clients. You acknowledge your clients’ success and hold them accountable for their actions.”

2. Make ChatGPT ask YOU questions
A good mentor gives powerful answers. A great mentor asks powerful questions. We can make ChatGPT become a great mentor by telling it to ask questions that get to the route of your problems and ambitions.

Prompt: “For every interaction, ask me any question that will help you provide a more effective and personalized answer.”

3. Have a conversation
If you have a general goal, then simply have a conversation with ChatGPT. Its questions can be surprisingly revealing, and will make you consider things that you might not have before.
