From Goal to Game Plan: How to Use AI to Deconstruct Your Big Study Goals

Ever stare at "pass my finals" written in your planner and feel completely frozen? You're not alone. The problem isn't lack of motivation—it's that your brain doesn't know where to start with such a massive, vague goal. In this post, you'll learn how to think like an AI system: taking that overwhelming goal and breaking it down into clear, logical steps you can actually follow. I'll walk you through a 7-step process that turns "I need to study everything" into "Here's exactly what I'm doing this Tuesday at 5pm." You'll discover how to use predefined study plans as your starting point (no more blank page paralysis), set up task dependencies so you're always working on the right thing, and customize everything to fit your real schedule—not some fantasy version of your life. By the end, you'll have a concrete game plan and the confidence to start executing it immediately.
