how we use llm's

"let the tool do the work"

I use llm's as thinking partners— to organize and accelerate decision-making.

The process is simple:

1. I talk to it constantly.
   Not just when I have a question—throughout the day, like a log. Fragments, instincts, tensions, hypotheses. It’s not always clean.

2. It reflects back structure.
   It takes my raw input and returns clearer frames. Not always right, but directional. Enough to test whether the idea has legs.

3. I correct it, refine it, or confirm it.
   The loop continues. It gives language to things I already feel but haven’t expressed yet. That’s the real value.

4. The speed of resolution increases.
   I make decisions faster. I abandon bad ideas sooner. I don't get stuck in meta-loops. There’s no waiting for clarity—it’s provoked in real-time.

5. It works because I stay in dialogue.
   I don't ask for answers. I stay in motion with it. That’s the difference.

like a whiteboard that talks back,
a debugger for the soul,
a true "second brain"
