How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When extracurricular activities feel either irrelevant or hard to describe professionally.

PRO TIP

Depth in one activity demonstrates commitment better than breadth across five surface-level ones.
