Check out their template gallery, this medium article called “ 10 Notion templates to inspire your use”, or read on for my own examples! There aretemplate for almost every category: personal, planning, finance, job applications, design roadmap, etc. These are especially helpful in the beginning since Notion does have a rather steep learning curve. There are tons of templates created by both Notion and the community that you can use. Plus, their database feature is especially powerful as it allows you to connect all your data and get into as much detail as you wish (each entry in a database is its own page). In other words, I guess it’s kind of like building a website to organize your life. Both pages and blocks can be rearranged by simply dragging and dropping them to where you want them to be. Notion allows you to have pages within pages within pages within pages-an infinite hierarchy that you can organize with tables of contents. There are also tons of formatting options, e.g. documents, databases, tasks), embed images and videos, etc. You can link websites, collaborate with other users, use different structures (e.g. Also, you can remain connected to other digital services. You can make databases, spreadsheets, Kanban boards, to do lists, etc. Notion is a blank canvas with tons of predefined blocks and different file types. Some of the advantages that have made me partial to Notion are: Notion allows you to integrate all aspects of your life and work into one app. It’s essentially like an empty notebook on your computer with functions that make it 10x more powerful. Over the summer, I found out about Notion from a friend, and I thought, this has so much potential, it could even be exactly what I need. Things I wanted to try are carelessly pinned to random pinterest boards or added to my YouTube “watch later” playlist.
There was just one huge problem with my digital organization system that made me hesitant to switch back in the first place: everything was fragmented. However, it wasn’t always the most convenient to use since I couldn’t effectively integrate all the different aspects of my life, which, to no surprise, is mostly recorded digitally.
It was simple, portable, and most importantly, flexible-all the things one could wish for in a planning system. That worked pretty well my second semester. So then I switched to a bare bones, uber minimalist bullet journal method. The predefined apps were too restraining, but the more customizable apps weren’t customizable enough. They didn’t have the specific functions I required and didn’t incorporate an organization system I liked to use. But all the apps I tried out-Taskade, Actions by Moleskine, Any.do, Todoist, Wunderlist-weren’t suited to my planning and organizational needs. I continued with digital planning in college since I knew I wasn’t going to have as much time. Because of that, I switched to an app called Edo Agenda. However, as I approached the end of high school, my schedule got busier, and I was involved in a lot more things, so owning a bullet journal was less practical. I was an artsy kid who found a way to combine art with organization in a way that benefited other parts of my life. In the early years of high school, I had a bullet journal.

After a few years of trial and error, I think I’ve finally found the perfect organization method.
