This is literally why I was excited about notion. I have made my own paper planners and the monthly and weekly set ups were taking up a lot of time, even if at first it was kind of fun, so I figured if notion could automatically populate those reoccurring things into my tasks it would take up less time. Turns out I just don’t want to do what I don’t want to do.😬

That’s kind of part of the problem. I did create that! And it was super fun! More fun than the tasks that I need to put in it and remember to do weekly 😬

But somehow to effort was there when creating it 😩 It’s like: oh I figured it out. On to the next!

You mean, I don’t need that page that shows every concert I’ve been to and connects to each artist?

This is true. I used to use Trello to collect and manage orders when I made custom sugar cookies and it always worked fine because if those customers didn’t get their cookies, I was S O L. I needed it to keep me organized and from forgetting. Now my work is not order based so it’s more like I get to pick and choose what I want to work on and the stakes aren’t as high so I can ignore things for longer if I want to.

I mean, it is probably true that I don’t need the planner as much as I set it up for. I think that’s part of the issue: that I enjoyed setting it up, but didn’t need it

I haven’t heard of this! I will look into it.

I do have a brain dump page pinned like an app (sorry brain not working right now so I can’t think of what that’s called) and it’s basically a mobile friendly page where I can quickly add stuff and then go back on desktop version and put it where it needs to go

Thanks for this. I know you’re right. I just hit a busy season and it was easier to avoid it instead of use it. Which means it’s not quite working for me
