The Problem

YOU’RE ADDICTED TO AI TOOLS, NOT RESULTS

Solopreneurs and creators are drowning in AI tools.
But instead of working smarter, you’re just… scrolling.

• Tool hopping is the new procrastination. You spend hours testing new apps instead of doing deep work.

• Information overload is frying your brain. Too many options = decision paralysis.

• You’re losing mastery. Jumping between tools means you never master one enough to leverage it fully.

Worst part? You’re paying for this distraction.
Monthly subscriptions pile up. Time vanishes. Output stays mediocre.

This isn’t productivity - it’s performative avoidance.

The Solution

Forget chasing the “next big thing.”
The real edge isn’t in more tools—it’s in mastering fewer, better ones.

Here’s your action plan:

1. Audit Your AI Stack

   • List every AI tool you’ve used in the last month.

   • Be ruthless. Cut anything that isn’t directly driving revenue or saving 5+ hours/week.

2. Build a “Simple, Robust Operating System”

   • Choose one core platform (e.g., ChatGPT Enterprise, Claude Team, Notion Q) that integrates multiple functions.

   • Use it for writing, planning, research, and task management.

   • Stop installing new tools until you’ve fully exploited this one.

3. Schedule “Tool Learning” Time—Don’t Let It Leak

   • Block 1 hour/week max for testing new tools.

   • If it doesn’t clearly beat your core system, discard it.
