Introduction: What is a Success System?
The world’s top achievers don’t reach success by accident. They have a success system, which is a set of habits and strategies they use repeatedly to achieve their goals. This system helps them stay focused and make progress, even when challenges arise.
You can also create your own success system by using ChatGPT to explore your strengths, set goals, and plan actions. In this post, we will look at 10 prompts (questions or commands) you can use with ChatGPT to find what works best for you.

1. What Are My Success Triggers?
Success triggers are the things that help you achieve your biggest accomplishments. For example, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos used to write a press release for a new product idea before even launching it, to see if people were interested.
Prompt:
“ChatGPT, help me figure out what usually leads to my biggest successes. Ask me about times when I achieved something great and what triggered those achievements.”
Why This is Helpful:
Identifying what makes you succeed helps you recreate those conditions in the future. This way, you can activate your “success mode” whenever you need it.
2. How Do I Learn Best?
Everyone has a learning style that works best for them. Knowing how you learn most effectively helps you absorb new information faster. For instance, Elon Musk likes to break down everything to the simplest basics to understand things better.
Prompt:
“ChatGPT, ask me about times when I quickly learned something difficult. Help me figure out what learning methods work best for me.”
Why This is Helpful:
Understanding your learning style makes it easier to pick up new skills and apply that knowledge to your projects.
3. What Are My Strengths?
Knowing your strengths and using them to your advantage can help you succeed. Oprah Winfrey, for example, built her career by focusing on her natural ability to connect with people.
Prompt:
“ChatGPT, ask me about my proudest moments and how I was able to succeed in those situations. Help me identify three key strengths I used to achieve these results.”
Why This is Helpful:
Using your strengths makes it more likely that you will succeed because you are relying on what you are already good at.

4. What is My Way of Getting Things Done?
Everyone has their own style of taking action and making ideas happen. For example, Spanx founder Sara Blakely would try new things every day, even if it meant failing.
Prompt:
“Now that you know my achievements, ask me about how I usually execute my ideas or work. Help me find patterns in the way I get things done.”
Why This is Helpful:
Knowing your execution style helps you follow approaches that work best for you, making you more efficient.
5. How Do I Know When I’ve Succeeded?
To know if you’re on the right track, it’s important to define what “success” means to you. Taylor Swift, for instance, measures her success through awards, like Grammys, and records.
Prompt:
“ChatGPT, help me understand what makes me feel accomplished and how I currently measure my success. What would be good indicators for me to use?”
Why This is Helpful:
Defining what success looks like for you gives you a clear direction and helps you know when to celebrate your achievements.
6. What is My Success Mantra?
A success mantra is a short phrase that captures what’s important to you. Chris Do, for example, uses “Learn, create, share, act big” as his mantra to guide his path to success.
Prompt:
“Based on what we discussed about my triggers, learning style, strengths, execution style, and success indicators, help me come up with a short, memorable mantra. Give me three options to choose from.”
Why This is Helpful:
A mantra can serve as a daily reminder to keep going, even when things get tough.
7. How Can I Track My Progress?
Seeing how much you have improved helps keep you motivated. Having a way to measure your progress shows if you are getting closer to your goals.
Prompt:
“ChatGPT, help me create a system to track my progress. What things should I measure and how often should I check my progress?”
Why This is Helpful:
Tracking your progress gives you a clear picture of how you’re doing and helps you adjust your actions if needed.
8. Who Can Help Me Stay on Track?
Having supportive people around you can make a big difference. Mentors can give advice, and accountability partners can help you stay focused on your goals.
Prompt:
“ChatGPT, help me think about people in my network who could be mentors or accountability partners. What qualities should I look for in these people, and how should I ask for their support?”
Why This is Helpful:
Having a mentor or accountability partner can provide extra support and different perspectives to help you grow.
9. What Should I Do When Things Don’t Go as Planned?
Everyone faces setbacks. How you handle these situations can decide whether you keep moving forward or stop trying.
Prompt:
“ChatGPT, suggest strategies for dealing with setbacks. How can I stay strong and learn from my mistakes? Help me come up with a plan to stay motivated even when things get difficult.”
Why This is Helpful:
Having a plan for dealing with setbacks helps you avoid giving up easily and encourages you to keep trying until you succeed.
10. How Can I Keep Improving My Success System?
Your success system needs to evolve as you do. As your goals change, it’s important to update your plan.
Prompt:
“ChatGPT, help me create a plan to regularly review and improve my success system. How can I make sure I’m always moving forward?”
