## Resource

Dobes (Pat Dobie) is one of the most organized gifted underachievers in history. She has a huge whiteboard and a well-stocked supply of dry erase markers. What does she use them for? Well, Pat holds CEO meetings for her creative-adjacent work at least twice a year. The purpose? To recenter, prioritize, and find new capacity in her creative adjacent work. How does she do that? She is great at data capture. In particular, tracking time spent and money earned on her projects to identify which ones do well, and which ones need to be reconsidered. And in the end? Pat sets herself up for greater success for the next six months by prioritizing high-value work and projects over those with a lower return. Questions for Listeners: * How do you track the costs and benefits of your work? * What do you do with that data? Buy us a Coffee and Win a Book!
