Core Tools
- Functions as a second brain/long-term memory
- My entire life is stored inside Notion. It's a little scary, but I love it
- See my templates here: Jesse’s Notion Templates
- Things I use it for include: this website, journaling, book lists, shopping lists, career planning, job applications, school assignments & classes (when I was in school), task management, relationships, and so much more…
- I love how you can save and organize tabs into spaces and folders
- I like the keyboard shortcuts. The split screen is nice
- Having no top bar makes the screen feel so much bigger
- The AI features are decent, especially the find-in page with AI
- Seeming like Arc is dying :/ I’ve heard Zen Browser is an option for a replacement?
- It uses Google Calendar accounts so it is a pretty small investment to try
- Because it is connected to Notion it can show Notion databases on the calendar
- This is especially useful for showing my tasks/to-do database
- I also use it to show people’s birthdays and workouts
- I’m a big fan of time blocking, including things like sleep, meals, etc.
- Functions as my short-term memory
- Just used for writing small things down before I forget (or if I am offline)
