SO HELPFUL MAN. Still getting use to notion but off the bat, how you organize tasks by days in the week is something I definitely want to implant right now.
For those who were wondering, Notion works on Mac, Windows and in browser. There’s also an app for mobile. I can only confirm it works for iPhone but I probably works for all mobile devices. 😊
I think this has been the absolute best video training on Notion that I’ve come across. I’ve bought a production template from someone and it was so complicated that there’s no sense in my using it. It works for him and I can see why for what he does but for me it was way too involved.seems so straightforward and simple which is what I really like. Thank you so much for making them available.
I almost giving watching other channels cause it quite overwhelm and complexed. Now just watched this video can see how clean and simple it is. So I realized that it does not have to be complex but it has to help you get to what you want, just simple as that. Thanks for not let me give up on this.
Man, this got me excited! I love seeing these organisation stuff! I appreciate you sharing this with us. Is it possible for you make a full in-depth video on how you formatted each of your categories?
Thank you thank you thank you! I really like how you kept the UI extremely simple with all of your dashboards. Yes, Notion can be very overwhelming with options, but your approach makes it very manageable.
Such a great video Ed - it goes to show how being organized and implementing systems can really free up a lot of space and leave room for creativity and well enjoying life. Thank you for sharing :)
This is really key stuff man. Notion is so powerful but to have someone explain it who really knows it in depth opens up so much. Respect for letting us see a bit of your workflow. The finances section alone was insane I would buy a mini course on that haha
So much value and all of this for FREE !! thanks, man you gave me a lot of ideas right now that I'm gonna implement - I use different tools like most people but I want to be able to have everything at a quick glance from 1 place.
Hello! I downloaded Notion for the first time and I was confused but after watching your video, it all make sense and this template is really helpful and I am going to use this more often to organize my life. I will use this template and make some changes and start using it. Thank you!!
This was insanely helpful!! I’ll definitely be trying to use Notion like this more! I’ve always been overwhelmed with how much you can do on the platform but with your pages, it’s so simple and easy!
This is so helpful! Thank you for sharing in such a concise way and letting us see your examples. Just getting started with Notion and feel inspired of all the things I can do with it
Really great video showing a ton of capabilities of Notion, especially with all their newer features. It was super helpful to see how you're using it for all the different areas of life and looks like the perfect Notion template for other creative business owners!!!
Im trying to learn best use cases for Notion. In theory I love how it can be customized to no end. But Im still clinging to more structured products. Personal Finance = Monarch To-dos = TickTick Business Projects + Workload Management = Asana The one use case I think I will try to use Notion more will be for capturing notes, articles, and such. Maybe from there I will start building my Notion chops and delve into it more. But damn, having to build everyone of these tools from scratch is just mind numbing.
@@edwardleefilms switched already, notion has made my life far easier. I copied your weekly planner setup and have custom pages for client work(photography/video) and my own content production. Have been able to film more for myself, get ahead of my clients schedule, and overall have been doing better. Thank you again 🙏
Greetings Ed, I have watched a few other videos on using NOTION and you are right,it is very overwhelming to know ALL of its functions and propertiers unless you spend time with it. Can you please do a video on how you screen capture your desktop and how do you zoom in or out? That is something i want to learn but from you,as your explainations are clear and coincise. Here is wishing your viewres a very happy new year.
Thanks Edward! I just found Notion after using Trello for a while. Your templates are simple and what i am looking for to organize my life and work. Cheers. I just subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to learn more Notion hacks from you! 😀👍
things like 'expenses tracking' and 'contracts' doesn't make sense to me. Cos typically we already have an organized overview of all that info on their respective services site/app etc. If you're a freelancer, you already have your expenses tracked on the service you use lol... contract that are drawn up using a service are on their respective dashboard as well.
This was so informative! I might just be sensitive as I suffer from migraines but cutting to and from the big brilliant white screen was hard to watch, would’ve loved to see a slightly darker screen to fit with the brightness of the rest of the video 🩶
Outstanding content, Edward, and I love how you laid out your tasks & projects. I am very new to this software, and being a guy in business for 25 years, it will be a bit of a challenge for me (old School strategies do not work in today's world) but this is a must to continue to be very productive. I can see the results months later, the time I will save. I laughed when you mentioned notes everywhere. That's me and why I am searching for a tool like this. Your presentation was perfect and thank you. If you have any suggestions on how to learn this software from A to Z, follow the dots type of education, please let me know. Thank you again for your great content.
Thank you for this video! I have several templates I've either paid for, or downloaded and I'm overwhelmed...but don't want to get rid of them exactly. Is there a way to create a folder or save them elsewhere to be utilized later? It's driving them nuts having them all under the "personal" area in the sidebar.
What you can do is drive them into the 'private' tab on the left side. Then minimize the private tab by clicking on it. 100% feel you on the visual of it. I like keeping my tabs organized on the sidebar too!
This a great video, Ed! Inspired me to get my own systems in place before the start of the year. I've been trying to use Notion since a while but found it very cumbersome to use. After watching your video, I feel otherwise and will give it another shot. For the Finances section, is there a way to automatically pull in all your transactions from your bank account or did you have to do that manually?
Yes! It just takes a little getting used to but once you get it, you'll be able to build all your workflows around it. I do enter everything manually but it's mainly more high level review. For "every" transaction, I still use programs like quickbooks on the financial side of things
Yeah! I have an "accounting day" once a month and on that day I spend about 2 hours just combing through my transactions, expenses, and getting a grip on my goals. It's really helpful
I love how clean and simple your setup is. Most Notion dashboards on UA-cam are soooo complex and detailed with so many features I'd never use
Thanks! I tried to keep this one simple because I felt the same way
I agree
For real.
SO HELPFUL MAN. Still getting use to notion but off the bat, how you organize tasks by days in the week is something I definitely want to implant right now.
Let's go brodie!!
Yes! The THIS WEEK page I use every single day as a guide. Its a game changer for me versus other traditional task apps or journals
@@edwardleefilms could you show us how you did it? 😂 newbie here
For those who were wondering, Notion works on Mac, Windows and in browser. There’s also an app for mobile. I can only confirm it works for iPhone but I probably works for all mobile devices. 😊
It also works on Android devices 🙂
Yeah I figured 😊
The mobile version is great! Thanks for this comment :)
Love how simple your setup is. Proof you don't need to make Notion complex to be useful.
Exactly! Thanks for watching
One of the simplest and most helpful videos to organize my life I've ever had the pleasure of watching.

Such a helpful video, spent the last hour setting it up for myself and I already feel so good about my organizations.
Love how simple all these pages are.

great video bro. your content speaks for itself but it's nice seeing the backend on how you stay organized. inspiring.
Thank you bro!
simple to understand for beginners too
Im trying to learn best use cases for Notion. In theory I love how it can be customized to no end. But Im still clinging to more structured products.
Personal Finance = Monarch
To-dos = TickTick
Business Projects + Workload Management = Asana
The one use case I think I will try to use Notion more will be for capturing notes, articles, and such. Maybe from there I will start building my Notion chops and delve into it more.
But damn, having to build everyone of these tools from scratch is just mind numbing.
Awesome video. Clear and informative 👌
Thanks Edward, very useful indeed!
Thank you so much for providing a simplistic yet productive notion template!
Thanks for watching!
Just recently found your content and your podcast MidConvo and it is so helpful as a freelance filmmaker

Hey, thank you for the template!
Notion AI is free for the first 50 commands I believe. They do charge a monthly fee for that feature
Yes you are correct
This is SO helpful!
I loved this video. Great content🤍
Thank you soo much♥
Really good stuff. Thank you.
Can you also do a tutorial on how to brainstorm for a youtube video,from the idea stage to the closure of it,using NOTION. Thanx in advance
Awesome video ❤

Okay noted. Maybe we'll do dark mode for the next tutorial video! Thanks for the feedback
This vdo helped me a lot thanks a lot bro.
this guy.. love the content ser
Thanks for this video , very inspiring, I love it ! Great job 👏
Great video, thanks! I love Notion. I've recently also discovered Capacities and it seems to stick even more with my ADHD brain.
Thanks buddy
Really good video. Do you Import the finance data into Notion, if so how easy is it to do so
Very helpful. Thanks!
Do you have a template that you would suggest for a student to manage schoolwork? Thanks your for help!

I would checkout Thomas Frank on UA-cam!
What brand is your shirt? I like how sleek it is
On Set Black -- smaller brand but qualittyyyy goods
For tasks does it refresh every week? Or do we have to clear it every week?
Have to manually clear it
Great vid
Hi Edward, super video! I need the same overview in my projects. Can you help me with this?
How would you add repeated daily tasks for the day and not have to type them into everyday and it just syncs to calendar every week?
Haven't quite figured this out yet
What is that keyboard you have?
how is it better than .. Microsoft Note .. i'm sure paid version will have more features.. but basic can me accomplished via notes
How you do the divider in middle on week tasks?
Thank you for this video! I have several templates I've either paid for, or downloaded and I'm overwhelmed...but don't want to get rid of them exactly.

Do you manually add the finance stuff? Good easy video to follow.
Yeah! I have an "accounting day" once a month and on that day I spend about 2 hours just combing through my transactions, expenses, and getting a grip on my goals. It's really helpful
Hey Edward! How can you put different boards on the same projects page? Thx in advance
Yes! You can definitely add more boards into your workflow if you need more than the ones Ive set
