Both of these are different, and why I find Notion so great. For daily work tasks, keeping track of the things I need to work on each day, and weekly writing projects that I do for Medium. Now when it comes to using the app, I have found that I use it in two ways. I like the app in the light mode most times even in low-light since the plain white background provides that clean aesthetic that I enjoy so much. I would prefer more variety of dark mode options but am fine with the dark gray that they have chosen. It has a dark mode and light mode and will automatically change to whatever the system settings are. Showing Light Mode on the left and Dark Mode on the right. Some may be against the simplicity of Notion and its settings, but that is why I think it stands out so much. type of app that removes any fluff or unneeded features that some apps may have. The simple design and aesthetic of the app is very appealing. I am in no way using Notion like Matt or David are, but I have found my way of using Notion that has worked great for me.īefore I get into the nitty-gritty of my workflow in Notion, I want to talk about the app itself. I then saw how Matt Ragland recreated his Bullet Journaling into Notion and was mesmerized by the flexibility and robustness that Notion could bring.
He has since been on the Keep Productive YouTube channel, where he talks about using Notion and wrote a WSJ article about it (Disclaimer: I haven’t read the WSJ article due to the paywall). He tweeted how he loved the ability to create an outline with an unlimited amount of indenting. I was first introduced to Notion when David Pierce tweeted about it a few years ago. Again, I have never found that one app or system that works for me, especially when it comes to taking random notes or ideas to have in one place. For work or more detailed tasks for my hobbies, I tend to use notebooks and pens or sometimes Todoist. I have always been a believer in some kind of to-do list or task manager to help guide one’s day but have never found just one path to go in.Ĭurrently, I have been using Things as a kind of here and their to-do list or task manager to keep track of big things that I want to work on for either Techuisite or household projects. Side Note - Business Management - NotionĪs a quick side note, Notion is so powerful that my wife uses it to run her home-based baking business, Gray Barn Baking.Like many who care about time management and productivity, I, myself, am always in search of the next best tool that can help. Notion is extremely powerful and has its place, but task management really isn't its strength.
Plus, Todoist is just easier to use, at least for me.
In Todoist, recurring tasks do exactly what you think they should. Trying to get Notion to handle recurring tasks is an exercise in futility - at least as of this writing. Many of my tasks are recurring - things I need to do each day, week, month, etc. You might absolutely be able to do this - but I just couldn't. Great question! And I don't think this can be explained in a blog post - you have to experience it yourself. But - Notion has a "Task" module - why not just use it? This use of Notion keeps my thoughts organized and at my fingertips, whether I am at home on my laptop or on the road with my phone. Similar sets of cards exist for our products, strategic projects, and operational areas (Finance, HR, Sales, Marketing, etc.). Each service has its own card on my homepage - and if you click on each card, you will bring up the details for that service.
