What AI Thinks You Should Track

If GPT rebuilt your dashboard from scratch… would it even include revenue?

🧠 ONE Smart Idea

We ask AI to write sales copy.
To summarize meetings.
To automate content.

But what if you asked it to design your success metrics?

Not based on what’s easy to measure…
But based on who you're becoming.

📖 Story Spark

Last month, I fed GPT a short founder journal entry:

Then I asked:

Here’s what it gave me:

• Clarity Score

• Time in Deep Work

• Alignment with 90-day vision

• Meetings that could have been async

• Joy Index (yes, really)

I turned it into a new column in my Notion dashboard.
One week later?
Better boundaries.
Less guilt.
More creative focus.

Thanks, robot therapist.

⚙️ Tactical Application: AI-Powered Scoreboard Design

Let’s do this in 3 steps.

Step 1: Clarify Your Direction

Prompt:

I’m a founder in [industry/business type].  
My personal values are [list].  
I’m building toward [vision or goal].

Suggest 5 custom success metrics I should track each week  
that align with these values—not just traditional performance KPIs.  
Explain why each one matters.

Let AI reverse-engineer what you should be measuring.

Step 2: Build a “Freedom Scorecard”

Example GPT output for a creative founder:

You can turn this into a:

• 🔢 Google Sheet with conditional formatting

• 🧱 Notion database with weekly reflections

• 📊 Airtable dashboard with automated reminders

Step 3: Reflect Weekly with AI

Prompt:

Here’s my calendar and task list from this past week: [paste export or summary].

Based on these, rate my alignment with the following metrics:  
[insert custom metrics]

Then: suggest 1 thing to stop, 1 to improve, and 1 to keep.

Now you’re not just tracking.
You’re evolving.

🧭 Intelligent Elevation

You’re not building a business that performs.
You’re building a business that feels like yours.

And that means redefining success not by what’s measurable,
But by what makes you free.
