Getting started
Start with one real task
Pick a job you already have this week. Don’t begin by collecting tools.
Choose a task you can finish
Pick something you would do anyway: a messy email, a one-page brief, a list of unanswered questions, or a failing test. If you cannot describe the outcome in a sentence, the first session will wander.
Write the context down
Before you open a chat, jot the audience, the deadline, the format, and any hard constraints (tone, length, things you must not invent). Paste that in as the first message.
Ask for a draft, not a verdict
Request an outline or a first pass you can edit. If the tool offers sources, open them. If it offers code, run it in a copy of the project.
Stop at a usable artifact
End the session with a saved file, not a longer chat. A short document, a revised paragraph, or a passing test is enough for day one.
