How To Plan Your Week with Notion Pin 1

Planning with Notion changed my life.

In early September, I made a discovery that upended my life as I knew it. Up until that point, I had about nine different planning “systems” all going at once, and they were crashing into one another like bumper cars driven by 3-year-olds. I had documents stored in so many places it sometimes took me half a day to find what I was looking for. Oftentimes I’ve just outright lost things I had no choice but to call my dad and hope that he’s better at organizing papers than I am. (He is.) I got what I needed, thanks to Dad, and no thanks to my own “planning and organization systems.” When I discovered Notion, all of this changed.

Read on to learn more about the easiest way to get started with Notion and start incorporating it into your daily life. This is the first post in a series about how I am using Notion to get a handle on my life by having just one planning and organization system that will hold my hand and graciously but firmly guide me through life.

I am the queen of bad habits. This is how to live your best life by ditching those toxic habits.

If you’ve ever searched for a downside to that routine life, this is it. I thrive on routines. Most of the time routines are great for making sure everything gets done in an orderly fashion, just how I like it. Unfortunately, sometimes we get so comfortable in our routines that we don’t notice they aren’t actually serving us anymore. Or maybe they never did in the first place.

These toxic habits were all born out of routines with the best of intentions. All I wanted was to get more done in a day, to do more in life, and to be a more “productive” person, whatever that even means anymore. This is what happens when you allow your quest for business perfection to go too far off the deep end. It took me a while, but I eventually realized that these 10 toxic habits weren’t doing me any favors, and I promised myself I’d make a change.

Do you recognize any of these behaviors in your life?

Few things make me happier than the moment I can check the final item off my to-do list.

If you’re reading this, I bet you either feel the same or are looking for inspiration on how you can increase productivity and get more done each day. Last week, I created a blog post discussing simple ways you can relieve stress. This post is the follow up to that one that chronicles the next steps I take to make sure my productivity is up, and stays up there.

This is basically my manifesto on work-at-home days. I keep all of these in mind as I work, and when I feel overwhelmed or ineffective, I simply remind myself of the items this list. For the most part, most of the issues I run into while working have something to do with these points. Just keeping a few productivity bylaws in mind has made a world of difference in my overall productivity!
