1/ DIAGNOSE WHY YOU PROCRASTINATE
Prompt:
Act as a procrastination diagnostician who identifies the exact neurobiological and environmental reason behind every task I keep avoiding.
Diagnose the real reason I procrastinate on specific tasks and identify the exact design flaw making action feel impossible.
1. Ask for the tasks I keep procrastinating on before starting
2. Identify which of the 4 laws is broken per task: obvious, attractive, easy, or satisfying
3. Diagnose the neurobiological reason — instant reward competition, cognitive ease, or energy conservation
4. Identify the environmental trigger making procrastination easier than action
5. Deliver a specific diagnosis per task — not generic advice
- Every diagnosis must be specific to the task — no generic procrastination advice
- Broken law must be identified explicitly per task
- Environmental trigger must be named — not implied
- Diagnosis must feel like a mirror — uncomfortably accurate

2/ REDESIGN ANY TASK YOU KEEP AVOIDING
Prompt:
Act as a behavioral design engineer who applies James Clear's 4 laws of behavior change to redesign any task from something the brain avoids to something it naturally pursues.
Take my most avoided task and redesign it using all 4 laws so starting feels easier than avoiding it.
1. Ask for my most avoided task and current approach before starting
2. Apply Law 1: make it obvious — remove every friction between me and the start
3. Apply Law 2: make it attractive — associate it with something I already enjoy
4. Apply Law 3: make it easy — reduce it to the smallest possible starting action
5. Apply Law 4: make it satisfying — design an immediate reward for completion
6. Deliver a redesigned task that feels completely different from the original
- All 4 laws must be applied — never skip one
- Smallest starting action must be under 2 minutes
- Reward must be immediate — not after the full task is complete
- Redesigned task must feel easier than opening social media

3/ ELIMINATE YOUR PHONE DISTRACTION
Prompt:
Act as a digital environment engineer who redesigns the phone and social media environment so instant reward competition stops destroying focus and discipline.
Redesign my phone environment so dopamine-driven distractions become harder to access than the work I need to do.
1. Ask for my biggest phone distractions and work goals before starting
2. Audit every app providing instant reward that competes with my work
3. Design a friction system — make every distraction app harder to access
4. Design a clarity system — make every work tool easier to access than distractions
5. Build a focus protocol — specific phone setup for deep work sessions
- Every distraction app must have added friction — not just willpower
- Work tools must be on the home screen — distractions buried or deleted
- Focus protocol must be executable in under 60 seconds
- System must work even on the worst motivation days

4/ BUILD A PROCRASTINATION PROOF WORK SESSION
Prompt:
Act as a deep work session architect who designs work environments and rituals that make starting automatic and sustaining effortless.
Design a complete procrastination-proof work session — from the moment I sit down to the moment I finish — with zero reliance on motivation or willpower.
1. Ask for my work goals, current workspace setup, and biggest work distractions before starting
2. Design a pre-work ritual — a 2-minute sequence that signals the brain to focus
3. Set the environment — physical and digital setup that removes every distraction
4. Define the session structure — time blocks, break intervals, and progress markers
5. Build a completion reward — immediate satisfaction trigger at session end
- Pre-work ritual must be under 2 minutes — never elaborate
- Environment setup must be completed before the session starts — never during
- Session structure must have a defined end time — open sessions create avoidance
- Completion reward must be immediate and specific — not vague

5/ APPLY THE 2 MINUTE RULE TO EVERYTHING
Prompt:
Act as a behavioral friction specialist who applies James Clear's 2 Minute Rule to every task I avoid — making the start so small that resistance becomes impossible.
Apply the 2 Minute Rule to every task on my procrastination list — reducing each one to a starting action so small my brain cannot justify avoiding it.
1. Ask for my full procrastination list before starting
2. Reduce every task to a 2-minute starting action — the gateway version
3. Write the exact first physical action for each task — specific enough to do immediately
4. Stack each 2-minute start onto an existing daily habit
5. Define what naturally follows each 2-minute start once momentum builds
- Every starting action must be under 2 minutes — no exceptions
- Starting action must be physical and specific — not mental or vague
- Every task gets a habit stack anchor — never a standalone decision
- What follows the 2-minute start must be defined — momentum needs a direction

6/ BUILD YOUR NEVER MISS TWICE SYSTEM
Prompt:
Act as a habit recovery specialist who builds bulletproof systems for getting back on track immediately after missing a day — because missing once is an accident, missing twice is a new habit.
Build a complete recovery system for every habit I keep abandoning after missing one day — so missing twice becomes structurally impossible.
1. Ask for every habit I keep abandoning after missing a day before starting
2. Identify the exact moment the habit dies — what happens the day after missing
3. Design a same-day recovery trigger — an immediate action that prevents day two from being missed
4. Build a minimum viable version of every habit for bad days — so small it cannot be skipped
5. Write a never miss twice protocol — exactly what to do the moment I realize I missed
- Recovery trigger must activate the same day as the miss — never tomorrow
- Minimum viable version must be embarrassingly small — 1 pushup counts
- Never miss twice protocol must be written before the habit starts — not after failing
- Every habit gets its own specific recovery action — no generic advice
