Why most ChatGPT tutorials don't stick

Most people try to learn ChatGPT the wrong way. They watch a 45-minute YouTube video, feel inspired, and forget 80% of it by tomorrow. Or they open the OpenAI documentation and get lost in technical detail that doesn't map to their actual work.

The problem isn't motivation — it's the format. Passive watching doesn't build skill. Dense docs don't build habit. You need practice.
