    This Notion Second Brain template houses all of your personal life and work life in one seamless dashboard.
    I designed this Notion template with Productivity as the number one priority. No pointless aesthetics, or confusing clutter that distracts you and makes you perform worse. This Second Brain uses PROVEN productivity methods so you can work efficiently and get more important projects done.
    Designed to help you eliminate "busy work", the task management and project management have been constructed so you tackle the vital things first. I've combined the best productivity techniques into one dynamic hub that houses your entire life.
    With Task Management, Project Management, Dynamic Note Taking, Smart Resources, Life Bucket Management, the Responsive Bottleneck Analysis, Move the Needle Tracking, Time Tracking and more; this Notion Second Brain has everything that you need to be more Productive.
    Capture Notes and Resources effortlessly with the quick buttons and find them in all the relevant places you need them.
    Track your Time in the SAME workspace as your to do list. No more switching between 5 apps to complete a simple task. Your;
    - To Do List
    - Calendar
    - Time Tracker
    - Journal
    - Notes
    and more, are all in the 1 workspace.
    This saves you HOURS of switching back and forth between apps and the massive context switching required to use all these different platforms.
    This is the Ultimate Notion Second Brain for being Productive.
    Combining productivity methods like To Do lists, Calendars, Time Blocking, Eisenhower Method, Avoiding Context Switches, Scheduling with Energy, Pareto Principle, Bottleneck Analysis, Journaling, Time Tracking and Eat the Frog into a single Notion template, aimed at being the most Productive digital workspace you wish for.

    This is really nice and well done, but I do wish there was a goal management section. Such as 3 goals for the year, then broken down into quarterly, monthly, weekly (whatever) tasks or projects that you can make progress on along the way. Then each month and/or quarter, review the progress, what went well, what didn't, etc.

    Attention: Notion Calendar won't add the tasks to the calendar since the database doesn't have a Calendar View on the root database.
    To fix that, open the "My Task List" source database page and just add a calendar view. Just did that and it worked for me.

    I bought this template Yesterday! Worth every penny!! - but I really confused by the difference between life buckets and workspaces, and what’s the difference is for notes and resources? - do you want to make a video on how you use it your self, maybe with the thought in mind to use more synonyms ore different explanations? - I think the language differences can make it a bit hard to fully understand the meaning of everything :)
    But all in all a really great template!!!!

    I have come across countless templates all over Gumroad, Etsy etc. None of them actually work practically. They all seem to make things very complicated. I bought your template yesterday and honestly, I can say this is probably the most action oriented and clean setup. My productivity depends on having a bird's eye view of my tasks and buckets - all in one place. This setup solves that. Excited to make this my day-to-day palnner! Hope this gets more attention. Deserves so much more. Great job!

    Hi! I am a student in my first year of college. This year has been very stressful and disappointing to me because I have always been a smart and successful student. At the end of the first semester in college on rock bottom, I found out I have ADHD and on top of that, I had no clue how to study and get my life back together. I have been trying to learn how to study and be productive for the last couple of months and I try a lot of stuff including therapy and medication. I know it is a process and I will become my best self one day. Actually, I really like your template, in fact, it is the best productivity system I have ever seen. I'm dying to try it but in my country, there is a high rate of inflation, and our money is worth 1/35 of a Dollar, so buying this template is not possible for me. Moreover, I am a student and it is not even a realistic dream for me. I really appreciate it if you want to help this poor little student:) Please please please

  • @Tangi_ENT
    @Tangi_ENT 4 місяці тому +3

    This came in at cosmic timing. I had set out to create a productivity system of the ages but this just dwarfs anything I could've come up with.
    Only some slight asks :
    How would one go about connecting reading apps to this ? Like readwise and kindle ? (I'll see if I can do that, shouldn't be too hard)
    I've also been making use of habitica for pure habit tracking it would be nice to integrate that somehow. That's the plan anyways.
    I really like the obsidian makes a web for all your ideas and connections I hope notion adds that someday.
    OH, whilst I'm spitballing. I kind of abandoned todoist just now. You can easily build it in notion and hiding notifications behind a paywall is kind of crazy. One thing I do love about it is the graph. Now streaks aren't that important, they can be slightly toxic but they are fine. What I appriciate is the graphs. Love graphs man, it would be sublime to have Data visualisations. Imagine with the fitness section it takes your workout regiment into account and you can display how many pushups you did total.
    Kinda like seeing your stats in a game [27 workouts completed this Month | 90 000 calories consumed | 1.24kg gained] or just like [156 task completed this month]
    You can see why I like habitica.
    All this seems like a surrogate activity though, I can't even imagine how to build this. I gotta make use of formulas and stuff to make loading bars and such sheesh. Overcomplicating it before I even begin.
    That said I'll just adopt yours and build out slowly.
    Only annoying part is that I have to revamp/reorganise my old system to fit in yours.
    Thank you for all of your hard work, I've been at this fully for like 4 days in a row and hardly got anywhere relevant. I can only imagine the hours of study, research, course taking and experimentation all this took.
    Can't wait to maximalise it (I love minimalism as much as the next guy but I need strong visual cues), its going to be a good procrastination session setting all this up in notion.

  • @blakedel5877

    I’ve been binge watching you channel for a few days now! I’m excited to download this template and get organised. A couple questions:
    1. I want to use this for work and life tasks. For certain work projects I have sub projects and for each one I may want to add notes like what I did to complete them, outcomes, meetings notes, links, etc. Currently i use them in a folder with multiple sub folders. Is there a way to do this on this template? I don’t want them to necessarily be associated to a task because I don’t want the notes to go away when I complete a task or a project.
    2. For certain life tasks, I may want my partner to complete a task. Is there a way to add him to certain projects so he can also view outstanding tasks, and also create like a tag for him, so i can tag him to tasks he can complete?
    Thank you and great work!

    • @ProductiveSetups
      @ProductiveSetups  4 місяці тому +1

      hey! great question. This is ideally set up for personal productivity but can definitely work. I would have your business be the "life bucket" then each client be a "project". Then you add client tasks to the associated project. You could do client meetings as "notes" and then they'll get stored on that page. Plus remember, on the Projects page you can add anything else you want :)

I have a couple of questions about how to personalise a few things. I have managed to do it with the buckets and workspaces and even added another "state" alongside Easy, Quick etc... but, for example, I want to add a section in the daily journal about how I ate each day (e.g. healthy, snacked too much, etc). Can you assist or is there someone I can email for a bit of techy help to figure it out? Also I'd like to work out how to add more habits than the 3 options that exist. Any help appreciated but I love the template and bought the playbook too!

    Great template, loved how simple and effective it is. Can you please share your thoughts on using it as a personal CRM? Say if we are reachnig out to a bunch of contacts for career growth. I am thinking on lines of creating resource for each contact, say with a resource type as contact, having a note for each resource to record status and then have usual tasks and projects to schedule communications. I dont see an easy way to track communicatin history witha particular contact apart from say, having a project for that contact or having notes attached to resource (contact created as a resource).

    @5:50 you show that after clicking the little + symbol you can add a habit. A window opens and you can scroll down to select your habit (1, 2 or 3). However, in the template the option to select the habits does not automatically appear. You have to scroll down but there are no options. You have to click into the bottom section and then click delete until the cursor appears at the very top where you add the title. At that point, the options at the bottom suddenly appear. It's a minor thing but a bit annoying and distracting. Is this something we can just change in settings?

    26:46 I feel like second brain is not the best title for this video it is more about personal task and project management. second brain means outsourcing especially the knowledge and making it persistent in a system so that you can revisit it easily. having a database with books to read is helpful but it doesnt assist you in "brain activity" unless you spend the main part of the day with reading and you really need something to keep track of. the important part is is not ticking off a status field from "to read" to "finished reading" but what knowledge do you take out of a book. i would expect a "notes" section to have exactly that knowledge.

    Question3: why there are notes and resources as a separate databases? I found it quite confusing that I don’t know where I save what. As after moving from Evernote I used to use notes only. But maybe it has some reason which i don’t see 🙈✌️

      2. totally fair! sometimes tasks have buckets, but no project. or sometimes projects with no bucket. so it made sense to seperate them otherwise they'd always need both, even if it wasn't necessary :)
      3. fair question! Notes are typically 1 time ideas that you want to jot down. Whereas Resources are stuff like Books, Videos, etc that you will want to come back to many times.

    Hmmm, not sure I agree with No Goals though I do like the idea of simplifying. I understand the example of Run a Marathon being translatable to "project". It's measurable - you ran it or you didn't. But a goal like "Become a Better Singer" is something eventually achieved thru regular practice (habit) but I struggle on how that could ever be considered a project (which inherently should be markable as complete at some point no?). If you can help me understand with this example, how leaving Goals out of the template is useful and how I can integrate the goal of "becoming a better __________" in it, then I think that would be helpful for me and others reading these. Right now, all I can think of would be to leave it as "Ongoing", like your Social Media example. But, otherwise, it's not measurable - though it could have milestones. So.... any suggestions on how to make goals like "become a better _____" work in your template?

    That's how you create fancy to-do and spend all the time setting up and not doing actual work. Notion will never make sense to me.

      once you have a proper system like this, you save HOURS every week. I've save so so much time :)

      hey :) no updates with Notion templates. Once it's downloaded then it's downloaded. But I don't have any planned updates for the future :)

    Hi there,
    I've sent an email detailing my problem with the payment method. It must have slipped under the radar.
    Love the system; would love to get it.

    Eat the frog doesn’t work for people with ADHD though… quite the opposite…Building momentum with smaller easier tasks first does.

      Not a problem! :) Add a couple of "quick tasks" first to your day and then tackle the Eat the Frog / the One Thing task, after them :D
