-: This lesson I'm really excited to talk about
because I think this is such a fascinating way
to use this tool, which is asking the right questions
to learn about other people's success in the past.
And the reason I think this is so cool is
because if you are gonna do this
with traditional Google searches,
it would be so many clicks to different articles
and scanning through pages of blogs
and writeups to try to find just the quick,
most concise information to find on people's past
and why they became so successful.
So let's hop into ChatGPT and see what we can learn.
So the prompt I wanna start with is a public figure
that most everyone knows.
Dr. Dre, super famous music producer,
super famous entrepreneur.
And I'm gonna ask a really simple question
right out of the gate.
Why was Dr. Dre so successful?
Awesome, so we have a concise answer
on his reasons for success.
And let's just read through this quickly.
Dr. Dre, whose real name is Andre Young,
is considered one of the most successful
and influential hip hop producers of all time.
Here are some reasons why he is been so successful.
First off is pioneering his own sound,
which is one of the main reasons he's known for,
is creating that unique sound.
Next is his talent as a producer,
and then his eye for finding and discovering
new and up and coming talent and his business savviness,
which this is really interesting to me,
and I wanna find out more about point number four.
So it expanded on point number four.
Dr. Dre's success as a businessman can be attributed
to his ability to spot trends and capitalize them.
He co-founded Death Row records in the early 1990s,
which quickly became one of the most successful
and influential hip hop labels of all times.
Now, I would like a little bit more detail on this answer.
So I'm gonna say, please list his most influential
and successful events of his career
in chronological order with a brief description.
And what this is gonna do is lay out
all of his most important moments
and let me know when they were and what they were.
Perfect, so it outlined his most important moments
in his music career,
but it's related more towards his album releases.
Now what I want to learn is,
now create another list that just shows
his business related decisions
that were a huge success.
So rather than getting more about his music side,
I wanna just really focus in on the business side.
So there you have it.
Now I have a list of his most business decisions,
and I can learn from this, get inspired from this,
and create my own roadmap if I was trying
to walk in his footsteps and emulate his career.
So that leads to the next prompt.
What are the main points of his success that I can implement
as an up and coming music producer?
So now we have a specific set of steps
that we can potentially follow
as an up and coming music producer to develop our own sound,
collaborate with other artists, stay on top of trends,
build strong business foundation,
and nurture other people's talent and our own talent
the same way Dr. Dre did.
Now I want to take this one step further
and ask to create a weekly schedule
that outlines what I should do each day
and at what time in order to implement
the five steps outlined above.
So now I have an overview of what I can focus on
every single day in the morning and then in the afternoon
to really walk in Dr. Dre's footsteps.
And you can recreate this for any artist, any entrepreneur,
any business person, and opportunities are endless here.
So I really recommend that you try this out.
Find one of your favorite celebrities
or people that you look up to,
dig down and find out about their success,
about their talents, why they were so successful.
And then see what you can do to develop your own schedule
to start emulating that success.
