I won’t lie, my biggest lesson was that I really should stop looking for an app to boost my productivity, and probably should just start getting stuff done
Notion doesn't work for me, too bloated, and not user friendly on mobile and I finally realized, the more complicated a productivity system is, the worst it will be and you will actually lose time setting it up
@CajunKoiAcademy yeah these days, I have two lists on my phone notepad, one for all the tasks I have to do and another in which I write the ones I have to do today and I update the second one every day. And file explorer works to manage knowledge..
@2PLUS2FIVE Yeah, that wouldn't be necessary be a bad thing if they made it ergonomic, but it feels more like working with an excel spreadsheet or something
That's the biggest compliment one can receive from their followers. I am so glad that our videos make you feel that way! Are you a huge notion user or did this video convince you to use notion for managing your life?
Sir, I’m really grateful to be your student. You are amazing … i can’t even express this in words. Thank you so much for giving your valuable time to all of us. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
notion is a love-hate relationship for me imo it does an amazing job at gamifying ones life and it's a good hub for notes and articles but its built-in calendar functions are driving me crazy: I need to redo filters all the time, then sometimes it updates to date sometimes it doesnt
Absolute fire...your channel is a game changer my dude! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and strategies, def going to be using your channel to level up!
Hi Cajun Koi! I really liked your idea of having an inbox to track my tasks because I really struggle with it, can you help me on how to set up the command to add the tasks on notion and how I can connect it to my calendar?
HI!! really helpful video i really needed apps like this !! i want to give a suggestion like in your website you added coin and credits so i was thinking like you add new focus rooms in there and as we spent our time in those focus rooms we'll get coins and credit and with that we can unlock new rooms so like this the website will become more interactive. well that's m suggestion its up to you know i hope you add that well i can't force you ❤ ❤ ❤
Hi Cajun Koi Academy. I always get distracted when I am learning and waste so much time trying to memorize what I have read. Can you make a video about this?
Hey there! We do have a video on focus called how I tricked my brain to enter deep focus aka the focus checklist. I believe it will help you a lot with your distractions: ua-cam.com/video/Ts1Ktxi4drI/v-deo.htmlsi=P9x3Pl-gvqpY0qAH
Amazing! I have learned a lot. Some of it i am doing, some I need some improvement, and some I need to try especially the Reader, Readwise connection. I use Crafty app not Notion though.
Hey! biggest fan of your videos!. I have been following your techniques and suggestions for the past few years. Now I am a pre-med student.. but I am really not sure if I want to be a doctor or not. How did you guys become doctors and how are you guys managing day to day stress of a doctor? Some experience-based guidance will really help me a lot. thanks in advance!
Hey there! Well, all the techniques and management systems that we discuss here come from our experience being a doctor. It all boils down to planning out the day meticulously, taking care of your energy - so good sleep, nutritious meal etc. Train your focus, discipline, and most of all learn what learning is! Rote memorization will not help you in med school
@@KoiAcademy Thank you for the valuable advice! I'll prioritize planning, energy management, and genuine learning as I progress through medical school. I really appreciate your insights.🙏
Hello, long time fan of this channel here. Can you please elaborate or make video on how did you create tasks database and integrate your tasks into notion calendar please. Notion database is kind of complicated and I really like what you did with the "tasks management". Thank you so much

Amazing video, I am having trouble linking my business calendar into Notion, I find that I can only connect google calendars, could you shouw how it's done? Thx

We had built remnote for students with its features catering people who are studying. Now, that we are business, we needed an app that was better for entpreneurs so, we use Notion now.
@yuvrajsingh099 Remnote are more for students and it helps with studying and researching etc. We switched to notion because the features help us run cajun koi. Tl;dr - Remnote is built with students in mind while Notion is more for our business needs.
I have a question which i would love to hear tips from. My academic goal is to upgrade my rank from 4 to 1 and for that, i want to improve in all the subjects. One thing i struggle in is Compositions. Any idea how i can improve and score higher?
@@KoiAcademy I suppose you could call it essays? From where i come, we call it compositions [grammar] and we get 6 random topics to write 350 words about in the exam. those include picture composition, narrative, descriptive, story, argumentative. so of the 5/6 topics given, we have to choose any one and write an essay on it. the basic Intro-Body-Conclusion pattern.
You don't necessarily have to use Notion. Do whatever works for you! Personally, I use concepts for mind maps which I think is the best way to study and take notes!
Former medical doctor ??? When and why did he quit ?!!! Just had a look through their vids and there’s nothing announcing this? Why hasn’t it been explained?
Somewhere along our medical school journey, we both got bitten by the entrepreneurial bug. This revived our creative side and it felt amazing! Despite how draining our day jobs would be at the hospital, we couldn't wait to come home and create content and build our business. At first, we just needed an outlet to "be ourselves" and pursue our passions. But our work resonated with like-minded people all over the world. We realized that it was possible to build a life of autonomy and financial freedom online. Eventually, we made the most difficult decision of our lives: to leave medicine and pursue online entrepreneurship full-time.
@@KoiAcademy thanks for replying! And it makes total sense. Also sounds completely congruent with ur heart as you are lit up and wildly succeeding. Still a little confused why this major development wasn’t communicated to your audience like you have explained to me, or did I miss it somewhere?

I won’t lie, my biggest lesson was that I really should stop looking for an app to boost my productivity, and probably should just start getting stuff done
That's it, right there! That's the lesson!
Brilliant, rookie!
Mine too
Just deleted notion and 2 other productivity apps 😂
100% and make the process simple
My biggest lesson that I am yet to learn is that i should stop watching videos on productivity and actually get work done
Notion doesn't work for me, too bloated, and not user friendly on mobile and I finally realized, the more complicated a productivity system is, the worst it will be and you will actually lose time setting it up
Definitely not for everyone. Start as simple as possible and only add what you need
@CajunKoiAcademy yeah these days, I have two lists on my phone notepad, one for all the tasks I have to do and another in which I write the ones I have to do today and I update the second one every day. And file explorer works to manage knowledge..
same here notion is too feature loaded i like taskito much better
@2PLUS2FIVE Yeah, that wouldn't be necessary be a bad thing if they made it ergonomic, but it feels more like working with an excel spreadsheet or something
@@astralydexactly. To me, using notion degrades my productivity. It is overwhelming
I'm new to your channel, but it has already help me change up study routine and habits! Thanks a ton, Cajun Koi😊
Awesome!
Hey Cajun Koi. Great video . Your videos have been helping me a lot in my self improvement journey and learning how to learm 😁😆
Amazing to hear
Dude, i really need this vid, i have my exams coming up and this really helped.....
Good luck on the exams!
Thanks so much, Legend, been looking for a vid like this for ages.

Keep going! 👍💜

Are you a huge notion user or did this video convince you to use notion for managing your life?
Well I'm not a notion user but yeah it is pretty cool. Right now sticky notes and journal works for me, i don't have that much busy schedule. 😊
@@meera1295That absolutely works! I do love journals as well, to be honest.

Thanks for guiding us.

Pls could u suggest a study planner to track studies bec i am not allowed a lot of screen time ❤
You can use an excel spread sheet, any journal, notebook or simply ask chat gpt to give you alternatives!

Amazing! I have learned a lot. Some of it i am doing, some I need some improvement, and some I need to try especially the Reader, Readwise connection. I use Crafty app not Notion though.
Readwise makes it seamless and easy to save your ideas to your central memory hub - whatever it maybe.
If crafty is easier for you then go with that.

Better and simpler every year!
