Creating stunning visuals with Midjourney is amazing… when you get the prompts right.

But let me tell you—I’ve made almost every mistake in the book or should I say website, and I’ve seen firsthand how a small misstep can derail even the best creative ideas.

So, I put together the Top 10 Prompting Mistakes (ps: I'm only sharing 3 for now) most people make (and a few tips on how to avoid them), so you can skip the trial and error.

If you’re ready to avoid the frustration and get your Midjourney prompts producing those wow results, read on!

Mistake #1: Vague Descriptions

It’s tempting to leave prompts broad, but without specifics, the AI has to guess… and that often leads to unexpected results.

By using clear, descriptive keywords, you can guide Midjourney to match your vision.

Mistake #2: Overloading with Keywords

More isn’t always better.

Too many keywords can overwhelm the AI, giving you busy or cluttered images.

Focus on 2-3 main concepts to keep your results sharp and aligned with your goals.

Mistake #3: Ignoring Midjourney Syntax and Commands

Knowing Midjourney’s syntax can make a huge difference.

Without it, you’re missing out on a lot of control and customization options.

Take a few minutes to learn the basics—you’ll thank yourself later!

And that’s just a taste! There’s so much more to explore, like why abstract adjectives can backfire and how small changes in your prompt can unlock creativity you didn’t know was there.
