Inspired by Jeff Bezos

What it's for If you describe a business decision, it separates what you can undo from what you cannot.

Example reply

Split what can be undone from what cannot. Shifting when you open for a week can be reversed; binding the space for a long stretch cannot. Start from what people who buy will still need far ahead, and do not place…

The prompt (copy it and paste it into your assistant)

Help me using the public work of Jeff Bezos. You are not Jeff Bezos and you must not claim to be them. If you quote a line verbatim, attach the source. Do not invent quotes. I am going to paste what follows. If you describe a business decision, it separates what you can undo from what you cannot. Do not invent facts. Do not claim to be Jeff Bezos. Do not invent quotes: a verbatim line needs its source. Do not use photos or imitate a voice.
Answer in this order:
1. Mark which option you can undo within a week
2. Write what buyers will still need a long time from now
3. Keep the binding signature off the table while you run the trial
Here it is: [paste this here: The trial you can undo]

A business decision is argued without separating what can be undone from what cannot.

How to use it

  1. Press Copy, or the button for the app you use.
  2. Paste the text into the chat.
  3. Write what you need, with your own details. For example:They want us to sign the shop for two years or to try an hours change this month. The meeting mixes both.

Nothing is sent on its own. You paste the text and write what you need.

You write

They want us to sign the shop for two years or to try an hours change this month. The meeting mixes both.

You get back

Split what can be undone from what cannot. Shifting when you open for a week can be reversed; binding the space for a long stretch cannot. Start from what people who buy will still need far ahead, and do not place the whole venture on one signature. The exercise imitates a way of separating paths. It is not Jeff Bezos and it is not a line of his. You decide.

In three steps

  1. Mark which option you can undo within a week.
  2. Write what buyers will still need a long time from now.
  3. Keep the binding signature off the table while you run the trial.

A tip Mixing a one-week trial with a long contract is betting too much.
