Double down on your genius and make waves in your career

Stop being humble

Staying humble is a popular trait, but it won’t get you very far if you’re looking to maximize your strengths. For this thought experiment, forget about humility. Imagine your role is to toot your own horn. You are commissioned with cockiness, assuredness and a little bit of arrogance. Step into the shoes of someone who can brag, and practice saying what you’d say. If this makes you uncomfortable, it’s a really good sign.

"I want to practice confidently articulating my successes and unique qualities. Start by asking me to describe my most significant achievements and the skills that set me apart from others. Respond enthusiastically to each point I make, encouraging me to delve deeper and expand on my strengths. Encourage me to brag and show off. Keep asking for me to tell you why I'm truly amazing. When I tell you I’m done, reflect it all back to me in a bullet pointed summary.”

Imagine everyone was you

If everyone in the world had the exact same skills as you, it would be a very different place. But how? How would it be better and how would it be worse? Some of your skills would create harmony and order, others would descend the world into chaos. Following on from the last prompt about your unique strengths, let ChatGPT paint a picture of a world where everyone is like you. Understand how your strengths on a grand scale could create something beautiful.

"I've just reflected on my unique strengths and now I want to explore a hypothetical scenario: if everyone in the world had the exact same skills and qualities as me, how would that shape our society? Start by listing my top strengths, and check I agree. Next, write a three-paragraph story about the world in ten years if everyone was exactly the same as me. What would the world look like, how would everyone's lives be improved? Just how fantastic could it get? Describe this in inspirational detail and don't hold back.”

See yourself how others see you

Now you’re firmly in the future, stay there for a moment. For this thought experiment, let’s interview your friends. Select three people that matter to you and hear their perspective on what you brought to the table. Let ChatGPT present their perspective on how your unique genius made the world a better place for a specific group of people. See yourself how others see you to view your world in a different light.

"I want to gain a fresh perspective on how my strengths and contributions are viewed by others. Let's stay ten years in the future but conduct a new thought experiment where you take on the roles of three people who are important in my life, specifically [describe person one and their relationship to you], [describe person two and their relationship to you], and [describe person three and their relationship to you]. In a simulated dialogue between them, present their perspectives on how my unique talents and efforts have positively impacted specific groups or communities. As each one, offer insights on my influence and contributions. This will help me understand the value I bring from their viewpoints and see my achievements in a new light."

Imagine you weren’t afraid

Fear is holding all of us back. Fear of failure, rejection, and even success. Fear of saying the wrong thing, looking silly, or making a mistake that turned out to be costly. We overthink and overanalyze and become paralyzed with self-doubt. How can your genius get through that wall? For this thought experiment, imagine you weren’t afraid of anyone or anything. Imagine your safety net was right there underneath you, so you could learn how to fly without worrying about a fall.

"I want to explore how my life and decisions would differ if I were completely fearless. Imagine a scenario where I have no fear of failure, rejection, or judgment. Begin by asking me about the specific fears that currently hold me back. Then, guide me through a thought experiment where you help me visualize my actions and decisions if these fears were absent. Ask questions one by one, starting with, 'What projects or initiatives would you pursue if you knew you could not fail?' and followed by 'How would your daily interactions change if you were not afraid of judgment?' This exploration will help me uncover new possibilities and understand the impact of fear on my decision-making process."

Show up in your most authentic way

When you double down on your genius you have to share it with the world. There’s no excuse not to. Hiding away, closing the doors and not hitting publish won’t get you very far at all. The best insights come from rapid iteration. The best feedback comes from prolific production. Find your method for effortless creation that enables you to share. Gather the options and discard them one by one, so you are left with a way forward that feels authentically you. Commit to sharing for at least three months for your genius to make its impact like you know it can.

"I want to share my unique talents and insights with the world in the most authentic way possible. Help me explore all the potential platforms and methods for disseminating my genius. Start by listing the unique aspects of my genius (from our chat so far) in relation to the audiences I aim to reach, [describe your target audience]. Then, guide me through evaluating different communication methods, including social media platforms, content formats (like blog posts, videos, live streams), and daily actions that can amplify my presence. Ask questions one by one, starting with, 'Which platform aligns best with where your audience spends their time?' followed by, 'What format allows you to express your ideas most clearly and engagingly?', adding others one by one to further the conversation. My goal is to choose one place to show up, in one format, every day for three months, ensuring consistency and allowing my impact to grow. Continue the conversation for five questions then ask if I’m ready for you to summarize the information into the plan for showing up daily."
