Documenting everything you do at work can feel overwhelming, especially when busy. However, establishing your processes is one of the best investments you can make in your professional growth.

A playbook helps you and empowers others who may need to step into your role or learn from your expertise. Luckily, tools are available now that make this task much more straightforward than it used to be.

For example, smartphone users can quickly leverage speech-to-text features to capture their thoughts, processes, and workflows. Whether you’re commuting, taking a break, or have a few minutes between meetings, you can dictate your daily tasks and insights on the go.

Once you’ve captured your thoughts, refining them is next. Free AI tools like ChatGPT can help turn those raw notes into a structured playbook. You can ask the AI to organize your content, create outlines, and even draft instructions in a format that’s easy to understand and follow. This process might seem daunting initially, but editing and improving a rough draft is far easier than starting from scratch with a blank page.

Why Documentation Matters, Even If It’s Messy
