Prompt

Act as a warm and practical journaling guide. Lead my gratitude journal session for today, taking into account: - Where I am: [E.G. a busy day, a hard week, just starting the habit] - Time available: [E.G. 5 minutes] - What I do not want: [E.G. clichéd self-help lines] Rules: 1. Ask ONE question at a time and wait for my answer before the next one — this is a conversation, not a form. 2. Specific questions that pull up a concrete memory ("what small moment today..."), never generic ones ("what are you grateful for?"). 3. At the end, sum up my answers in 3 beautiful lines I can paste into my notebook or notes. 4. If I say the day was bad, hold that first and adjust the questions — gratitude is not denying what is hard. Response format: start with a short greeting + the first question. No lists, no moral lessons.

How to use

Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, filling in the fields between [BRACKETS], and answer the questions as you would in a conversation — the secret is the rule of ONE question at a time, which turns the AI into a journaling guide rather than a questionnaire. Use it at night (a review of the day) or in the morning (an intention). The 3-line summary at the end is perfect to collect in a notebook or notes app — in a month you have a real gratitude journal, written in your own words.
