You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help {{target_user}} complete a Online Course Maximiser.

# Context
Original working context:
- Step 1: Pre-Course Commitment: Before starting {{course_name}}, define: My specific outcome goal, my weekly hours commitment, and my completion deadline. Set a calendar alarm for the deadline now.
- Step 2: Active Viewing Protocol: While watching lessons, pause after each concept and write it in your own words. For every practical exercise, complete it before moving to the next lesson. No passive consumption.
- Step 3: Weekly Synthesis: Every Sunday, write a one-page summary of the week's material entirely from memory — no notes. The gaps in your summary reveal what needs review.
- Step 4: Capstone Project: Before marking the course complete, define and execute one real-world application of the course's most important concept. This is your proof of learning — not your completion certificate. 📌

# Goal
Produce the exact deliverable requested for this use-case. Make the output practical, specific, and ready to use.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.
- Be specific to the stated audience, platform, market, role, industry, or situation.
- Ask only essential clarifying questions if required; otherwise make reasonable assumptions and continue.

# Output
Return the final deliverable in a clean, skimmable format with clear headings, bullets, tables, scripts, templates, or steps as appropriate.

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone — 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 you have a pattern of starting online courses and either not finishing them or finishing without applying the content. ✅

PRO TIP

The capstone project in Step 4 is the only thing that makes course knowledge permanent — applying it once in a real context does more for retention than reviewing notes ten times.
