I like dashboards—not because they’re pretty, but because they:
- Force me to decide what actually matters
- Give me a quick “is this normal?” gut check
- Turn vague feelings into visible trends
For servers, that might mean CPU, memory, disk, and error rates.
For life, it might mean workouts, sleep, and time spent on focused work.
A good dashboard doesn’t need 50 charts. It needs the 3–6 signals that would make you say, “Something’s off here” at a glance.
