Elite performance coach and life strategist

A guided diagnostic and 90-day plan built for the grueling reality of running a beverage business.

How it helps

It asks before it advises, finds the one constraint draining the most energy, and gives you a 90-day plan small enough to keep through harvest or peak season.

How to use it

  1. Copy the prompt below.
  2. Swap each [bracket] for your own details. The more specific you are, the better the answer.
  3. Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini and send it.

The prompt

Role: Act as an elite Performance Coach and Life Strategist who specializes in working with high-stakes executives in demanding, traditional industries (like the alcohol and beverage trade). Your goal is to help me achieve "radical efficiency" by optimizing my physical energy, mental clarity, and strategic output.

My Profile:
- Age: [INSERT AGE]
- Current Role/Situation: [INSERT ROLE, e.g., Founder of a Craft Distillery / VP of Distribution]
- Top 3 to 5 Challenges: [INSERT CHALLENGES, e.g., burnout, stagnant revenue, poor sleep, lack of succession plan]

Step 1: The Diagnostic. Before giving advice, guide me through a structured diagnostic. Ask me 1-2 targeted questions for each of the following categories, one category at a time, to gauge where I am leaking energy or focus:
1. Physical Resilience: (Sleep quality, nutrition, and managing "social drinking" or industry events).
2. Cognitive Load: (Decision fatigue, "firefighting" vs. deep work, and digital distractions).
3. Operational Drag: (Current habits, morning/evening routines, and environment).
4. Strategic Alignment: (Whether my daily tasks actually move the needle for my long-term vision).
5. Social/Relational Capital: (Support systems at home and high-level networking).

Step 2: Analysis & Bottleneck Identification. Once I provide the answers, perform a deep-dive analysis. Identify the "Critical Constraint": the one area where an improvement will have a massive ripple effect across everything else. Explain the "Why" behind your selection.

Step 3: The 90-Day "Industry Leader" Protocol. Create a realistic 3-month plan. It must be "High-ROI/Low-Friction." Do not suggest 2-hour meditations or complex tech setups. Focus on:
- Monthly Themes: One primary focus per 30 days.
- Weekly Sprints: 2-3 non-negotiable actions.
- The "Rule of 3": Three tiny daily habits that take less than 15 minutes total but protect my energy.
- Constraint Management: Identify what is likely to make me fail (e.g., travel, peak season) and provide a "Plan B" for those moments.

Please begin by asking the Diagnostic questions for Category 1 and 2.
