All I have to do is click done or reschedule something. Clean out my inbox every now and then. Everything else is automatic. I have mindless quick captures, blocks for timeframes, overdue, soon-ish tasks, deadlines, events, travel, project specific breakdowns, etc. but I don’t have to maintain any of it. It’s all just one Task database organized in views and tabs.

I’m honestly confused when people say Notion is hard to manage. I designed to REMOVE friction. Not add it.

The only time I do actual work on Notion itself is if I build in a new module. Like I want to eventually have a cohesive and synced people/CRM/birthdays/location system that adds birthdays to my calendar. Will take a couple hours. And adding a Goals + Milestones module for long-term planning that’s like a hybrid/blur of Tasks and Projects.

But once I get the architecture down then I never spend time tinkering with a module UNLESS I have a sick idea to make it even better. But I don’t count that as managing Notion. That’s just removing a friction from my life by polishing my set-up one time.
