When Claude gives you an answer that could have been written for anyone, the cause is almost never Claude. It is missing something only you can give it: who you are, what good looks like, what to avoid. If you spend ten minutes fixing every draft, the tool is not saving you time. This covers the five mistakes behind that — no context, no example, never saying what you don't want, one giant chat for everything, and taking the first answer — with one prompt to paste for each. Each fix takes about a minute to set up, and most of them you only do once. The same five work in ChatGPT and Gemini.

What's inside

  • All five prompts written out to copy, with what to put in the brackets
  • The "never do this" list that stops the emojis, long intros and words like "delve"
  • The handover prompt for when a chat gets too long and answers start to drift
  • The one-minute routine that puts all five together
