When AI gets stuck

101: Bad answer? Ask what it needs to know.
Instead of: "wrong, try again"
Try: "That's not right for me. What do you need to know about my situation to get it right? Ask me."
201: Big job? Ask for one small step at a time.
Try: "Help me plan our barangay fiesta program. Don't write it all. Give me step 1 only, then wait for me."
Why it works: you can fix a wrong turn at step 1, not step 10.
301: Going in circles? Start fresh with a summary.
Try: "Summarize what we decided and what I still need, in 10 lines." Copy it into a new chat and continue there.
