You donโ€™t need to change your whole routine to benefit from AIโ€”just build simple, consistent habits. One effective habit is using AI to summarise long emails, meeting notes, or shared documents. By asking clear prompts like โ€œWhatโ€™s the main point?โ€ or โ€œWhat are the key actions?โ€, you can save time and focus on what matters. Itโ€™s a small change that delivers big results.

You donโ€™t need to overhaul your day to start using AI. In fact, the best way to begin is small โ€” and consistent.

Hereโ€™s one habit thatโ€™s made a real difference for me:

๐Ÿง  ๐—จ๐˜€๐—ฒ ๐—”๐—œ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—บ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ฒ.

Start with:

โ€ข A long email thread
โ€ข Meeting notes or transcripts
โ€ข A Word doc or PDF someone shared

Drop it into Copilot or ChatGPT (needs to be anonymized) and simply ask:

Itโ€™s a quick way to cut through the noise and refocus your time on what actually matters.
No more rereading the same email three times trying to work out what to do next.

This one habit has saves me hours each week โ€” and itโ€™s easy to build into your daily habits.

๐Ÿ“Œ Start small. Stay curious.
