How to Choose the Right Tool for You
Start by asking:
Where do I spend the most time on repeat tasks?
What feels draining that AI could handle better?
Do I want one tool that does a lot, or multiple tools for specific tasks?
Then pick just one to test this week. Seriously—don’t try five at once. Let it solve a real problem. Build from there.
Final Thoughts: Don’t Let the Tools Run You
AI is powerful, but only if you actually use it consistently. This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about building systems that support you—not more stuff to micromanage.
