i counted how many times i retyped the same prompt yesterday and it was embarrassing

I do a lot of summarization work. meeting notes, reports, long email threads. clients send me stuff and i condense it down into something readable. the prompt i use is basically always the same. summarize this, keep it under a certain length, use this tone, pull out action items if there are any. but every time i open a new chat i type it out again. sometimes i dig through old conversations trying to find the version i liked, which honestly takes longer than just rewriting it. yesterday i actually kept count. 11 times. same basic prompt, retyped or hunted down 11 times.
