The prompt · ChatGPT

Help me plan a realistic week.

My fixed hours: [e.g. work Mon–Fri 8–4, school pick-up 3pm]
Already booked: [appointments, clubs, events, with days and times]
Family and home jobs: [e.g. food shop, washing, homework help, bins Tuesday]
Things I must get done this week: [list them, in any order]
Things I'd like to do if there's time: [e.g. gym twice, call Mum]
Rest I want protected: [e.g. two 30-minute breaks a day, one free evening]

Before you plan, ask me up to 3 short questions if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. Give me a day-by-day plan, Monday to Sunday, with rough times.
2. Put the hardest jobs where I'll have the most energy.
3. Batch small jobs together (calls, admin, errands).
4. Keep my rest time protected, and tell me if the week is too full to fit it.
5. End with a short "can wait until next week" list.

Keep it simple, use UK English, and don't add tasks I didn't give you.
