    This has to be the best guide for someone new to notion. All the other youtubers are showcasing THEIR own tasks and what they use notion for whereas you're showing us all the options that a beginner can utilize notion for... keep up the good work 👏

      Took the words right of my mouth, I've been watching UA-cam vids for 2 days and still clueless as to where to start. All I see are other people's "aesthetic" notions, which are of absolutely no use to me.
      So glad I found this. And I will deffo be saving this vid and rewatching over n over and using the majority of these tips.

    @digitalplanningmom Рік тому +1

    Thank you! This was great for this new Notion user because it's super confusing as a newbie. There is a lot to learn with Notion. It's one thing to watch someone else walk you through it and totally another to create pages and databases on your own and know how they will work together.

  • @the7thdecade

    Incredible comprehensive tutorial! Even just the first few tips were ones I've been trying to figure out all day. I'm brand new to Notion but I've decided to use it to organize my entire life. I've spent the whole day getting my Notion set up how I want it, watching videos for how to use Notion, and seeing other people's setups to draw inspiration from. There were several things I wanted to copy from other people's templates that none of the tutorial videos explained. Now I know how. Thank you so much for this deep dive.

    I found NOTION through some random book recommendation that led me down a crazy RABBIT HOLE. This dame rabbit hole led me to several experts training videos. The problem was that they spoke like experts, in other words they did not explain enough for someone very new to the whole database note taking style to actually understand what they were saying.
    You are a fantastic teacher! You explain enough without letting it become long winded, and you explain relevance as well. Very very chuffed to have found your videos.
