How to Champion Productivity and Overcome Forgetfulness using Notion
Finding Productivity in Your Life as An Influencer
Over the past year, I have almost exclusively started using Notion on a full-time basis. I continue to use Evernote for several things, but I am finding an increasing number of features that I get with the Notion that Evernote has not had up to this point. I’ve been a fan of Evernote for the past decade. However, the underlying technology shows its age and the limitations of Evernote's platform. Take, for instance, full Markdown support, an in-line database with features similar to Airtable or Coda, embeds, or syntax highlighting for code.
These are features that make Notion a proponent of the 21st century notetaking, list making, data collector of the current time.
I have compiled a list of my favorite ways of using Notion. I’ve created a sample site that you can view on your own time and can be copied if you decide it works for what you are doing.
Note: Evernote has released their new platform; this I shall be testing out more over the next month or so and then will release a comprehensive evalution. But for the most part, many of the features below are still not available.
