📖 How to read and remember books in minutes: 4 prompt sequence

Reddit user Savings-Reading-1507 suggested a great 4-step prompt sequence to summarize and memorize any book.

1️⃣ Prompt 1:
🤖 Please summarize [BOOK] by [AUTHOR]

2️⃣ Prompt 2:
🤖 What are all of the chapters in the book?

(From here, I'd pick out chapters that provided the best teachings based on what I want to learn}

3️⃣ Prompt 3:
🤖 In [BEST CHAPTER], what are the most important 20% of learnings about [LEARNING OBJECTIVE] that will help me understand 80% of it.

(At this point, we've got the most important points from the chapter, based on what you want to get out of it. No fluff. Now we're going to use a scientifically proven way to remember it all.)

4️⃣ Prompt 4:
🤖 Convert those key lessons from the chapter into engaging stories and metaphors to aid my memorization.

ChatGPT will split out easy-to-understand stories that make it super simple to remember what you've just read.

5️⃣ (Bonus) Prompt 5:
🤖 Write me an action list of how I can apply [KEY LESSON] into [PLACE YOU WANT TO APPLY IT]

I tried it and it works like magic. How do you like it?
