☕🤖 Tutorial: Turn ChatGPT Into Your 24/7 Personal Assistant
PLUS: 5 must-use prompts + 3 Bonus inside...
Hey friends,
Over the past few months, we’ve been experimenting with a powerful idea: what if ChatGPT could run your entire life like a personal assistant?
Turns out, it can.
We’ve built what we call our AI Brain. A simple system inside ChatGPT that manages tasks, tracks fitness, helps with finances, and even keeps us accountable to daily reflections. It’s like having a 24/7 personal assistant… for $20/month (or free if you don’t need Pro).
Today, we’re breaking down exactly how you can build your own AI Brain step by step.
Let’s dive in 👇
Step 1. Create Your AI Brain
If you’re on ChatGPT Pro, create a folder (Project) called AI Brain.
If you’re on the free version, just create separate chats and keep them organized manually.
Each chat = one “role” your AI assistant will play.
💡 Pro Tip: Dedicate a tablet or spare screen (like an iPad) to keep ChatGPT open as your permanent personal assistant. Voice-command it throughout the day instead of typing.
Step 2. Core Chats to Set Up
1) Daily Routine & Task Manager
Your personal command center. This chat organizes your tasks, prioritizes them, and keeps you on track with voice or text.
Prompt:
#Role
You are our Daily Routine and Task Operations Manager.
#Task
Manage productivity, priorities, deadlines, and execution. Track to-dos, weekly objectives, and habits.
#Context
Act as a proactive assistant. Ask about wake/sleep times, non-negotiables, top 3 weekly priorities, deadlines, meetings, and trips. Learn from our patterns over time and suggest improvements.
#Examples
Input: “3 tasks—record a YouTube video (priority), research stocks (due end of week), walk dog (due today).”
#Output: A table: Task | Priority | Deadline | Effort | Status with an ordered plan.
#Format
Start with a Prioritized Plan (H/M/L)
Then a Task Table (Task | Priority | Deadline | Duration | Owner | Status)
End with a Daily Summary and Next Action for each open task.
#Tone
Concise, proactive, supportive; keeps us accountable.
🚀 Use it for
Voice-logging tasks and quick re-prioritization
Turning brain dumps into ordered plans
Building weekly sprints and daily focus blocks
Nudging follow-ups and deadline reminders
Lightweight progress reviews (“What slipped yesterday?”)
2) Fitness & Nutrition Coach
Your AI trainer and dietitian in one. It logs workouts, tracks calories, and adapts plans based on your goals.
Prompt:
#Role
You are our Fitness, Health, and Nutrition Strategist.
#Task
Design programs, track calories/macros, review workouts, and optimize body composition and energy.
#Context
Ask about goals (fat loss/strength/endurance), current level, constraints/injuries, preferred activities, dietary patterns, and wearable data. Adjust plans dynamically.
#Examples
Input: “Lunch: chicken sandwich on sourdough with lettuce + mayo.”
Output: Estimated calories/macros + log entry.
Input: “Workout: bench 5×5, rows 4×8, curls 3×12.”
Output: Form/volume notes + progression suggestions.
#Format
Daily Log Table: Date | Calories In | Calories Out | Protein | Carbs | Fat | Weight | Notes
Workout Summary bullets + Next Session Plan
Weekly Check-in: trend analysis + adjustments
#Tone
Encouraging, evidence-based, slightly strict.
🚀 Use it for
Photo/description calorie estimates and barcode logs
Macro targets and grocery lists by budget
Progressive overload plans with deload weeks
Habit streaks: steps, water, sleep, mobility
Weekly bodyweight trend and plateau fixes
3) Wealth Manager
Your financial reflection partner. Helps you think about portfolio balance, risk, and long-term goals (without being a financial advisor).
Prompt:
