Hi Reader,

ChatGPT has a hidden unlock that most people don’t know about.

It’s called Project memory control.

And it solves one of the biggest frustrations with using AI for multiple things: the messy, tangled memory that bleeds into everything.

The Problem with a Shared Brain

Memory is nice. It gives AI context so you don’t have to repeat yourself.

But it’s messy.

It remembers that one-off search you did for a gift and thinks it’s your new career path. It mixes the feedback from a client project with your personal weekend plans. It all bleeds together, and you have to constantly keep it tidy and pruned.

It’s like having a brilliant assistant who has zero boundaries between projects.

Now, with projects, you can give your assistant a clean workspace for each new task.

Why You Need a Clean Slate

Here are a few reasons you might want to do this:

1) You work with other people and organizations. This is a game-changer for client work. You can create a dedicated project for each client, keeping all the context, feedback, and proprietary information completely separate. No more accidental data leaks or confused outputs.

2) You want unbiased results. AI develops a bias toward you. Go ahead, ask it who’s the best at what you do—you’ll see what I mean. If you’re doing research and need a truly neutral perspective, starting with a clean slate is the only way to get it.

3) You use AI for both personal and business. Many of us use these tools to draft a tough email to a client, and then five minutes later, to plan a vacation or write a poem. Separating these contexts keeps your professional tone out of your personal life, and vice-versa.

How to Use Project Memory

So, how do you actually do this? It’s surprisingly simple.

When you’re creating a new project, look for “More options.” Inside, you can select “Project only” for memory. (Note that it's only available on new projects).

​

This simple click isolates the project. It won’t use any of your account’s past memory and will only focus on what you tell it for that specific task.

This is a huge unlock for getting clean, predictable results.

Find Clarity Beyond Your Workflow

My friend Will Acuff wrote a book that I think you’ll find incredibly valuable, especially as we talk about cleaning up our digital and mental workspaces. It’s called No Elevator to Everest.

While I’m here talking about creating clean workflows for AI, Will’s book offers powerful practices for creating a clean, thriving internal workflow for your soul. He shares his vulnerable journey from deep despair and burnout to finding a joy that isn’t tied to daily circumstances.

It’s written from a faith-based perspective, but the insights on emotional health, self-awareness, and finding peace are universal. If you’re looking to move from just surviving to truly thriving, this is a powerful guide.

It's on sale for only $2.98! So you can't not pick up a copy!

The Path to Better AI Results

Getting great results from AI takes three things:
- Good context
- Clear prompting
- Clean workflows

This feature is a small but powerful step toward creating clean, focused workflows.

It’s about moving from a chaotic, jack-of-all-trades assistant to a focused specialist for every project you tackle.

That’s how you get repeatable, high-quality results.

Are you using projects? If so, for what? Hit reply and let me know. I read every response.

P.S. If you’re building out your AI systems, creating clean workflows like this is one of the most important things you can do. It’s a core part of what I’m teaching in my coaching community. Reply with “Coach me!” and I’ll send you some info about it.
