Around this time last year, I wrote about moving away from Notion after heavily relying on it for University work and managing my daily life.

My main argument at the time was that I was spending too much time customising it and trying new things instead of actually working on the tasks. I also made the valid point that a project management app should work for you and that you shouldn’t have to spend a great deal of time building and fine-tuning it.

Well, it’s been a year since I wrote that article and I thought it was the right time for an update, if you haven’t had a chance to check it out, I highly recommend you do!

I Went Back To Notion — Well, Sort of…

I wanted to start by saying that now that my side hustle has started picking up and now that I have a lot of content and side hustle projects to manage, I returned to Notion for that. However, this time around I took a different approach.
