I wanted to learn how to build websites and sell them, but I didn’t know where to start. I used AI—specifically DeepSeek—to help me plan a roadmap. Because I already had experience prompting large language models to get the results I wanted, I asked DeepSeek which areas of knowledge I would need for this path. I also asked it to prioritize each area using statistics and facts. I reviewed the areas I didn’t know and prioritized them, then told the AI that I needed free resources only. I asked it to rank the topics based on what I didn’t know or understood the least. Finally, I asked it to create a Markdown file with all the resources formatted as checklists and imported the file into Notion. Now I have a plan I’m following instead of a “someday I’ll do this, hopefully” idea. Step-by-step: 1. I explained to DeepSeek that I wanted to learn how to build and sell websites but didn’t know where to begin. 2. I asked it to identify the areas of knowledge I would need for that path. 3. I asked it to prioritize those areas using statistics and facts. 4. I reviewed the topics I knew the least about and used that information to prioritize them. 5. I specified that I wanted free learning resources only. 6. I asked DeepSeek to create a Markdown file listing the resources as checklists. 7. I imported the Markdown file into Notion and started following the resulting plan.
