The "Gratitude Audit" Prompt

Use this prompt with ChatGPT or your favorite LLM:

"I want to conduct a Gratitude Audit to identify what I've stopped appreciating in my business and life due to hedonic adaptation. Please interview me with these questions one at a time:

BUSINESS GRATITUDE AUDIT:
1. What's one thing about your business today that would have amazed you 5 years ago?
2. Which clients have been loyal the longest, and when did you last genuinely thank them?
3. What freedoms do you have as a business owner that employees don't have?
4. What expertise do you possess that took years to develop but now feels 'obvious'?
5. What systems or tools do you use daily that would have been impossible 10 years ago?

LIFE GRATITUDE AUDIT:
6. What relationships have you stopped actively appreciating?
7. What aspects of your health or physical ability do you take for granted?
8. What conveniences in your daily life would shock someone from 50 years ago?
9. What freedoms do you enjoy that billions of people don't have?
10. If you had a close call tomorrow, what would you wish you'd appreciated more today?

PERSPECTIVE RESET:
11. What's one thing you're currently frustrated about that someone else would love to have?
12. What problem are you complaining about that's actually a 'luxury problem'?

After I answer all questions, please provide:

• A summary of what I've stopped appreciating
• The potential cost of continued ingratitude (relationships, opportunities, joy)
• Three specific practices to reset my perspective
• A weekly gratitude ritual customized to my situation

Start with question #1."
