My current Notion dashboard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I first created my Notion account roughly two years ago, but at the time, I wasn’t quite sure how to use it. I had heard great things about the tool, but I wasn’t sure how it fit into my workflow. However, about six months ago, I decided to give Notion another try and I’ve been blown away by its flexibility and power ever since.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the things I love most about Notion is the ability to build using blocks. It’s like legos for your productivity. You can create a page, add text, images, tables, and more, and then move them around to create the exact layout you want. Additionally, the ability to create reusable templates is really powerful. I can create a template for my daily tasks, for example, and then use it every day without having to start from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That being said, while such flexibility is Notion\u2019s greatest strength, it\u2019s also the main barrier to entry for new users. When you\u2019re initially presented with a blank sheet and need to figure out what you\u2019re supposed to do with it, it can get daunting pretty quickly. Fortunately Notion has recently rolled out some introduction <\/a>videos<\/a>, which I think will be great to help get new users started, along with the pretty good user manual<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I use other productivity software, I often feel that I have to follow their style of productivity, but with Notion, I can build a system based on my preferences and keep evolving it as I go along. Considering I\u2019m always tweaking my workflow and styles, this is extremely useful for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you haven’t given Notion a try yet, I highly recommend it. It’s a powerful tool that can help you get organised and be more productive. If you feel you\u2019re stuck and need help, feel free to drop me a message<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can sign up for Notion using my referral link<\/a>. It helps me keeps the lights on.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
