Bought a new espresso machine, but it still pulling bitter shots?
I hit this grind size trap myself!
Bitter= grind is too fine → over-extraction.
Grind slightly coarser next shot——see if you taste more sweetness

Why most habits fail early?
People aim too high too early.
You need more momentum, not more motivation.

New habits shouldn’t take more than 2 minutes to start.
If they do, something’s off.
Don’t say “I’ll work out and get ripped.”
Say “I’ll put on my gym clothes.”
Big change starts with a small trigger.
That’s the first step of the journey.

Clean desk? → Ready to write.
Organized gym corner? → Workout friction = gone.

AI is smart—but not fault-free.
Hallucinations are real.
If the work matters, double-check the output.
AI can help, but it won’t own the mistake.
The quality check?
Still your responsibility.

The key to perfecting anything?
Start messy.
Same goes for AI prompts.
Don’t waste time chasing the perfect version.
Throw it in the pot, see what cooks—then tweak it.

ChatGPT can be a great help desk agent. Why?
✅ Handles conversations better than most people
✅ Cuts operating costs
But keep it on a leash.
If unchecked, it can derail fast.
Pro tip: Pre-edit its responses in a doc and have it pull from there.
Saves time. Prevents chaos.
