In the first part of this series, we looked at how ChatGPT prompts can supercharge your business—from drafting direct messages to brainstorming marketing ideas. But here’s the thing: AI isn’t just for entrepreneurs and marketers. It can also make your personal life a whole lot easier.
That’s what Part Two is all about. Let’s dig into some fun, practical prompts that show off the power of AI outside of work.
Why These Prompts Feel “Banned”
No, they’re not actually illegal—but they feel like they should be because of how much time and money they can save you. With the right prompt, ChatGPT can return results in seconds that might otherwise take you hours of scrolling and searching.
Example: Using AI to Find the Cheapest Flights
One of the best real-world use cases for ChatGPT? Travel planning.
You can type in a simple prompt like:
“Find the cheapest flights from Oklahoma City to Miami in October, including both major and budget airlines.”
In seconds, you’ll get a list of options that cuts through the noise. Instead of juggling 10 open tabs, AI helps you narrow things down instantly.
Even better, you can add follow-up instructions like:
- “Only show me flights with fewer than two layovers.”
- “Include baggage fees in the estimate.”
- “Compare driving vs. flying for cost and time.”
Suddenly, ChatGPT isn’t just giving you information—it’s acting as your own personal travel assistant.
More Everyday Prompts to Try
Here are a few other ways to use ChatGPT in daily life:
- Meal Planning: “Create a five-day dinner plan for a family of four that costs under $100.”
- Fitness Guidance: “Give me a three-day workout plan I can do at home with no equipment.”
- Budgeting Help: “Build me a monthly budget for someone making $3,500 per month, with rent, groceries, and savings included.”
- Learning Something New: “Explain guitar chords to a beginner in simple terms.”
The beauty of AI is that it’s flexible. Whether you’re planning your next vacation, trying to eat healthier, or picking up a hobby, the right prompt gets you started fast.
The Big Takeaway
AI isn’t just for business—it’s for life. By experimenting with different prompts, you can discover how powerful ChatGPT can be for personal hacks, travel, health, and beyond.
Think of it this way: if you wouldn’t hesitate to Google it, you can probably prompt ChatGPT for it—and get an answer faster, more customized, and sometimes even more insightful.
