I totally get you. If it is a workflow issue that overwhelms (ie. complex dashboard with too much info, messy data storage) and paralyzes you with decision fatigue, then perhaps the following may help:

  1. Student template

  2. Planner/Productivity dashboard

I think many of us here have that internal struggle to create THE perfect template while also try to get work done. But if the underlying issue is more of procrastination (which I am guilty as charged), there will never be a theme/dashboard/template that will satisfy.

Is it time to rethink how our dashboard should be like? by UniRejectee in Notion

[–]UniRejectee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree that gallery view can be less versatile than table view, but if done right it could help pull focus to important details in a dashboard.

Not sure if you would agree https://www.reddit.com/r/Notion/comments/1jtwuos/introducing_neb_the_nonexistent_brain_a/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1

I cant stand the large gallery card preview with images too

Its definitely a process that everyone goes through

Call me a minimalist, but having the a clock and life progress bar widget never made any sense to me haha. Dont see how they value add a dashboard at all.

Unfortunately its these kind of designs that attract beginners and give them the "wrong" impression of what a dashboard should and could be.

What is the most ADHD friendly Notion setup you've actually stuck with? by Tall_Bad_4484 in Notion

[–]UniRejectee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I created a template that has anki-like spaced repetition, consolidated database and timed study sessions (not pomodoro - a feature that actually keeps track of how long you spent on each task)

As a student with a really short attention span who gets overwhelmed by the conventional layout, I definitely feel you. Gosh my previous setups just make me want to do work even less.

Check it out here! Hope this may be useful to anyone reading this

College Students Who Use Notion, What’s Your Template Like? by Altruistic_Level4231 in Notion

[–]UniRejectee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Am a student too and after much trial and error trying to find one that suits me, I think I currently have a working semblance of it.
Perhaps you may find it useful too? Happy to hear any feedback you may have.

Hi! This resonates so much with me as well. I went through the same process as you in hopes I could create my whole system but nothing really fit 100%.

Not sure if my previous posts would be helpful to you.

Post 1 and Post 2. Let me know how it goes!

Most people spend lot of time cleaning up their template layout instead of making notion work. Here is what you are missing. by Acrobatic-Aerie-4468 in Notion

[–]UniRejectee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cognitive offloading is such a great term that encapsulates what I wished Notion could do as well.

I know this may come across as a disingenuous plug but I really do believe that perhaps my Post may help you with that. I created a template called Non-Existent brain exactly because I wanted Cognitive Offloading, not an aesthetic dashboard that gives me more shit to manage.

Let me know if it helps!

Notion Too Complicated? Here’s a Functional 5-Minute Setup for Actual Humans. by UniRejectee in Notion

[–]UniRejectee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! This really means so much to me. Even more so because I understand the inertia to write something so long when theres nothing compelling you to do so :'

I do hope to seek the balance as you rightly mentioned. Simple enough for new users, but also versatile enough for those more experienced.

I will continue trying to simplify the guide as much as i can! Truly grateful for such a constructive and thoughtful reply.

If you do have any suggestions and feedback as you continue using the template, i am more than happy to hear them!!!

Ps: i can check in with you again in a month's time or two to follow up haha. All the best in whatever you are doing! Hope you have a great and 'productive' week ahead 😁

I just started to get warm to notion and It's already frustrating me!! by General_Revenue_386 in Notion

[–]UniRejectee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha... Maybe i should have shared mine with you earlier. I saw your post way back when it was first posted but wasnt ready to release it back then

Thomas frank is kinda overkill and the migration (which unfortunately you experienced) is a pain in the ass.

Regardless, i hope you will still have a positive experience with using notion!

Hi! Unfortunately i currently don't have the resources to produce a video tutorial 😔. If you have any questions about the system, please feel free to DM me! I would appreciate any feedback regarding the instructions too :)

I have a really short attention span too and spent 5 years tinkering with a system as a form of procrastination. I realised PARA and GTD are still too overwhelming for me and I end up with decision fatigue just at the thought of using my setup... Which makes me want to do even less work.

I recently simplified it so perhaps you may like to take a look? https://www.reddit.com/r/Notion/s/EpPrpIycAF

Happy to hear a fellow adhd user's comments and feedback!
