Ask for a favour that's easy to say yes or no to
Asking feels awkward so you hint and hope. Get a clear ask with an easy out.
The prompt · ChatGPT
Write a favour ask that's easy to refuse. Favour: [specific] When I need it by: [date] Why them (brief): [optional] What I'll do if they say no: [backup] Channel: [text / email] Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers. Then: 1. A clear sendable ask with an easy out. 2. A shorter text. 3. Guilt phrases to leave out. 4. A thank-you either way line. Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent facts, quotes or what the other person thinks. Give a sendable version and, when I've pasted a vent, a one-line note on what you left out and why. This is help with wording, not legal advice. UK English. Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.
