The AI Thought Pair
The Simplest Way to Use AI (Even If You Don’t Know Where to Start)
Most people think they need complicated prompts to use AI.
They think they need to learn some secret language or memorize frameworks to get good results.
They don’t.
You only need two sentences — and they’re so simple you’ll remember them forever.
I call this the AI Thought Pair, and it works for absolutely everything:
writing
planning
brainstorming
organizing
communicating
researching
emotional support
decision-making
creative projects
business strategy
job searching
If you can say these two sentences, you can use AI the way power users do.
Here they are:
⭐ The AI Thought Pair
1. “Here is what I want.”
2. “Here is what’s getting in the way.”
That’s it.
Say those two things, and you’ve already given the AI:
a direction
a constraint
a tone
an emotional context
and your real goal
This unlocks 90% of the clarity people struggle to get from AI.
Let me show you how to use it.
⭐ Step 1: Say What You Want
Keep it simple, not perfect.
Examples:
“I want to write a cover letter.”
“I want to organize my workspace.”
“I want an idea for today’s Instagram post.”
“I want to rewrite this text message.”
“I want to understand this medical thing.”
Don’t optimize it.
Don’t make it fancy.
Just say the real thing you want.
⭐ Step 2: Say What’s Getting in the Way
This is the step everyone else forgets — and it’s why their prompts fail.
Examples:
“I don’t know where to start.”
“I’m overwhelmed.”
“I don’t know the right tone.”
“I don’t know what matters or what doesn’t.”
“I’m tired and can’t think clearly.”
When you tell AI your block, the AI solves for the block — which solves the entire problem.
This is why the Thought Pair feels like magic.
⭐ Step 3: Give AI the Pair
This is the entire prompt you need:
“Here is what I want: ________.
Here is what’s getting in my way: ________.
Help me start.”
That last line — help me start — creates a gentle, step-by-step response instead of overwhelm.
⭐ Step 4: Follow the First Tiny Output
You don’t need to finish the whole thing.
You don’t need to go all the way.
Just follow the first step it gives you.
That’s how you build a relationship with AI that supports you instead of drains you.
⭐ Step 5: Let This Become a Daily Tool
Use the Thought Pair whenever you feel stuck, tired, unsure, overwhelmed, or scattered.
Use it for:
emails
resumes
content
cleaning
crafting
planning
finances
life admin
creativity
emotional processing
It works because it meets you where you are.
