Let AI Handle Your Small Decisions
Smart ways to use AI
Everyone needs space.
Space in life.
space in our hard drives.
space in our house.
But hereâs the truth most of us also need more space in our heads. We spend so much time making decisions that honestly donât matter that much. These little choices eat up hours.
Thatâs where AI comes in. If you use it right, AI can free up that mental load. It can take care of small but time-consuming decisions where even if you get them âwrong,â the impact on your life is tiny, but the time saved is huge.
Iâve gathered 5 simple but creative ways to use AI that you probably havenât tried yet. Each one saves time, reduces stress, and gives you more space for the things that actually matter.
⸠1. Plan Your Travels Stress-Free
Scrolling through endless blogs and reviews for every trip? AI can give you a personalized itinerary in minutesâbudget, vibe, and hidden gems included.
Instead of wasting hours deciding between 20 hotels, let AI do the heavy lifting. Even if one suggestion isnât perfect, youâve saved the one thing you canât buy backâyour time.

âWhat should I eat this week?ââprobably the most repeated question ever. AI can generate a 7-day meal plan based on your diet, taste, or cooking time, and even hand you a grocery list.
It wonât just suggest âpasta.â Itâll map out quick, balanced meals and remove the daily stress of deciding.

Hereâs one of the biggest gems and honestly, my favorite custom GPT.
It lets you create Spotify playlists just by chatting with AI. You simply tell it the vibe you wantââMake a workout playlist in the house music genreâ and itâll generate a ready-to-play list.
Not 5 songs. Not 10 songs.
Weâre talking up to 50 tracks (or more) curated to your taste.
As a DJ, I can tell you that building sets or mood playlists with this is mind-blowing. It saves hours, keeps the creativity flowing, and gives you endless new music ideas.
Most people donât even know this exists. So, youâre welcome.
⸠4. Explain Anything in âSimple Modeâ
Some things in life are too complicatedâinsurance clauses, medical terms, banking paperwork. AI can take any jargon-filled text and explain it like youâre talking to a friend.
This isnât about dumbing it downâitâs about making complex things less intimidating so you actually act on them instead of avoiding them.
You are my explainer bot. Break down this text: [paste text]. Explain it in plain English as if I were 12. Then give me 2 analogies and 3 real-world examples so I fully understand it.⸠5. Reimagine Your Room with AI
Interior design doesnât need hours of Pinterest scrolling. Upload a photo of your room and AI can suggest layouts, color palettes, or even furniture ideas based on your budget and style.
Sometimes all you need is a fresh perspective and AI gives you that in seconds.
You are my interior designer. I have a [room type] with [dimensions]. My style: [minimalist/modern/etc.]. Suggest 3 layout ideas, a color palette, and a furniture list with budget ranges. Present in a clean checklist.AI is one of the greatest gifts to humanityânot because it can build rockets or write code, but because it frees up the little spaces in your life.
Use it for these small, everyday tasks and youâll quickly realize: the less time you spend on decisions that donât matter, the more energy you have for the ones that do.
See you in a few days,
