This plan leverages the Goal-Setting Theory by establishing clear, specific objectives for learning and execution. The initial steps of niche definition and tool mastery align with SMART goal principles, ensuring clarity and measurability. Deliberate practice is emphasized in mastering AI tools and prompt engineering, a crucial skill for high-quality AI output. By focusing on creating an initial automation workflow, we apply principles of the Compound Effect, where small, consistent steps in automating content creation lead to significant gains in efficiency over time. The iteration and feedback loop (Pilot Content & Engage) reinforces learning and adaptation, which is vital for sustained success in a dynamic field like AI-driven content creation.
Month 1: Niche and primary platform clearly defined, 2+ core AI content tools (text and image/video) mastered for prompt engineering, initial draft of an AI content automation workflow created. 15-20 AI-generated posts published on the chosen platform.
