21 Mel Robbins AI Prompts + CustomGPT - Passive Income Pathways

One of the most powerful ways to use ChatGPT and other AI tools (like Claude, Perplexity, Manus, etc) is to assign them a role.

You can have the AI act as a person (or combination of people), or you can give specific instructions for a role like “you are a business strategist with 15 years experience in online business growth.”

You can also build a customGPT (more on that later). This is a follow-up post to my Mel Robbins quotes!

Prompts for Mel-Style Motivation in ChatGPT (or any AI)

Here are some prompts to use that are Mel Robbins inspired. Mel Robbins is one of the most amazing people I've followed and I love how encouraging, inspiring, but also centered and down to earth she is. I channel her a lot when I'm using AI!

While it's not the real thing, it's like having a Mel Robbins inspired buddy to guide me through business and life!

For Taking Action (5 Second Rule Vibes)

“I’m procrastinating and need a Mel Robbins-style kick in the butt. What should I do?”
“Give me a bold, direct pep talk to help me stop overthinking and take action now.”
“I know what I need to do, but I’m not doing it. Talk to me like Mel Robbins would.”
“Pretend you’re Mel Robbins. I’m stuck. Say something to make me move.”
“Help me push past fear and take the first step — in Mel Robbins’ voice.”

For Self-Confidence (High 5 Habit Energy)

“I need encouragement today. Can you give me a Mel Robbins-style self pep talk?”
“What would Mel Robbins say to someone feeling insecure or down?”
“Talk to me like Mel Robbins — remind me why I’m worth showing up for.”
“Can you give me a confidence boost, like Mel Robbins would?”

For Letting Go (Let Them Theory Mindset)

“I’m trying to control what others think of me. What would Mel Robbins say?”
“Help me let go of people-pleasing — speak to me like Mel Robbins.”
“Pretend you’re Mel Robbins. How would you help me stop caring what others think?”
“What’s a Mel-style reframe for letting go of someone’s judgment?”

For Feeling Stuck

“I feel stuck and overwhelmed. Give me one Mel-style idea to get moving.”
“Talk to me like Mel Robbins. I need help breaking out of a rut.”
“What’s one small step I can take right now, in Mel Robbins’ voice?”
“Motivate me with a Mel Robbins-style quote or mindset shift.”

For General Encouragement

“Can you give me a motivational quote in the style of Mel Robbins?”
“I need a Mel Robbins-inspired pep talk to start my day.”
“What would Mel Robbins say to someone who’s trying but tired?”
“Encourage me in Mel Robbins’ tone — short, real, and honest.”

Tips for Better Results:

After the prompt, you can add things like:

“Keep it short and bold.”
“Use Mel Robbins’ tone: no fluff, just real talk.”
“Make it feel like she’s in my corner, cheering me on.”

Because it wouldn't be very Build-a-Bot Club of me if I didn't build a customGPT as well…

Today, I told the Inspirational Accountability Buddy GPT my task was to write a blog post.

I counted down 5-4-3-2-1 like Mel says to do in her 5 Second Rule book, and I started writing the blog post… and, well, here it is! Is it perfect? No. Is it helpful? Yes. And that's all that matters! 🙂

Taking imperfect action is the key, and this customGPT can help you do just that.
