Most expensive habit this year? Staying loyal to one AI.

Here's what actually works:

1. Test new tools weekly. Revisit the "dead" ones every 6 months. Your opinion ages faster than the tech.

2. Say exactly what you want. Cut the fluff. Big context windows don't save you—they bury you. Models prioritize your mess. Be specific. Be short. That's the edge.

3. One brain for the whole zoo. Stop letting your assistants reinvent the wheel 23 times. Single source of truth. Everyone plugs in.
