Real Life AI: The "Polite Filter" for Stressful Emails
The Scenario: It’s 4:00 PM. You need to send a difficult email, maybe chasing a late invoice, declining an invitation, or giving feedback to a contractor who messed up.
You’re frustrated. You’ve written the email in your head three times, but you’re staring at the screen because you’re worried you’ll sound too aggressive or rude.
Usually, you’d spend 20 minutes agonizing over every word. Not today.
The AI Quick Win: Stop trying to be polite. Just write exactly what you are thinking (even if it's grumpy), and let AI add the "corporate polish."
Step 1: Open ChatGPT (or Claude/Gemini). Step 2: Type this prompt:
"I need to send an email to [Recipient] about [Topic]. Here is my rough, frustrated draft. Please rewrite this to sound professional, firm, but kind. Keep it concise."
[Paste your angry/messy draft here]
Why This Works: You get the frustration out of your system immediately (cathartic!), but you send a perfect, professional message. You just saved yourself 20 minutes of "cursor anxiety."
Try it today: Even if you don't send the email, just try the prompt to see how it changes your tone. It’s like magic.
