Your First Invention
Three things you love → three things you could build this weekend.
The lesson
The kid-sized Three Things: name three things you love, get three buildable projects — each doable in under an hour, costing about zero dollars, using stuff around the house, with a "show a grown-up" step built in.
Try it — 60 seconds
Tell the AI: "I love [thing 1], [thing 2], and [thing 3]. Suggest 3 projects I could make this weekend with a grown-up, under an hour each, using stuff we already have."
Copy it into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini — whichever you already use. Fill in the brackets with your real life.
Watch out
Pick ONE and finish it. A finished cardboard invention beats ten imaginary masterpieces.
