  • hello my sweet potatoes it's michelle and today  i'm going to show you how to take your notion from  

  • this to this and this and this this video is like  a part two i already filmed my notion tour video  

  • which i will link up here or in the description  box but i basically walked you through my entire  

  • notion workspace showed you all of my pages  and how i use all of them to stay organized  

  • but now i'm going to show you how i actually set  everything up i learned a lot of little tips and  

  • tricks along the way that i wanted to share with  you guys today i spent a few hours every day for  

  • about a week setting up all the pages using them  making little adjustments as i went along there's  

  • definitely a learning curve but i wouldn't  be too intimidated by it either because it is  

  • pretty straightforward to learn so here are my top  tips that i found to be super helpful when i was  

  • setting up my notion and trying to get it to look  all aesthetic i think if something looks good then  

  • i'm more likely to actually use it so let's start  with the basics so when you create your notion you  

  • can just sign up with a google account and notion  has a bunch of templates that are pre-made already  

  • but i kind of wanted to start from scratch that  way i could really learn the ropes and customize  

  • everything to fit my needs i did spend a lot  of time in the beginning just gathering a lot  

  • of inspo like on pinterest that's where i get most  of my inspo and i made a list of all the different  

  • types of pages that i wanted like an agendacontent planner a journal a goals page so one  

  • of the first things that i always like to do when  i'm setting up my pages is to change up the font  

  • depending on the look and feel that i want for the  pages and to do that all you have to do is just  

  • click the three dots in the top right corner and  choose between the default serif or mono fonts i  

  • usually use default and serif and while i'm herealso usually like to toggle on small text and full  

  • width that way i can see more on one page and then  something else that i always like to do especially  

  • on my dashboard is to add icons to my main  pages and you can do that by opening up a page  

  • click add icon at the top and choosing an emoji  but i noticed that notion doesn't actually have  

  • all of the emojis for example if i search in boba  the boba emoji doesn't show up but if that happens  

  • just go to link open up the emoji shortcut by  pressing command control space find your emoji and  

  • hit submit there's also this website notion.vip  that has a ton of clean minimalistic black and  

  • white icons you can just copy the link of any icon  and paste it in you can also just upload your own  

  • icons if you have any saved on your computer and  icons can even be animated gifs which is pretty  

  • cool i don't use a lot of gifs though because  i tend to get distracted by them really easily  

  • but there is this website icons8 that has a lot  of free animated icons the way that i've gotten  

  • them to work though is by downloading the gif and  uploading it rather than just copying the link  

  • and it doesn't have a transparent background  either which kind of sucks but it looks good  

  • on your dashboard at least so that's a cool way  to make your notion look more dynamic so i also  

  • want to share some keyboard shortcuts as wellthink keyboard shortcuts are so much faster than  

  • clicking around and i think more people should  utilize keyboard shortcuts there's a whole list  

  • of them on this webpage here i'll leave a link in  the description box but i'm just going to share  

  • the ones that i use the most and just fyi i usemacbook my computer is really heating up right now  

  • so after i learned all the basics i remember the  first thing i really wanted to learn was how to  

  • apply a background color to the entire row i was  just trying to highlight text and add a background  

  • color but that only applied it to the highlighted  text so i realized you can click the six dots on  

  • the left side go down to color choose what colored  background you want and then that applies it to  

  • the entire row you could even click the six  dots and just start typing so maybe i want to  

  • turn it purple arrow down and then it changes the  background color or the fastest way i think is to  

  • just place your cursor at the start or end ofblock and then type backslash and the color you  

  • want go down and hit enter also if you just apply  the color to a text block and you want to format  

  • another text block in the same way just select it  and press command shift h to copy the formatting  

  • it's also right here and that's how i learned to  do that now when it comes to duplicating blocks  

  • i used to just click the six dots on the side and  click duplicate but i've found it easier to just  

  • hold down the option key click and drag i tend  to do this the most often for my agenda like if i  

  • need to copy a task onto another day or this would  also be super helpful if you're still setting up  

  • your agenda since it'll have multiples of the same  types of blocks or this even works if you want to  

  • duplicate a link to an entire page and if you want  to rename a page quickly without having to open it  

  • up first and waiting for it to load just click  the six dots to highlight the entire row press  

  • command shift r and then you can edit the namelot faster so i create a lot of bulleted lists but  

  • instead of typing out like backslash bulleted list  you can just hit the dash key and it'll turn into  

  • a bulleted list automatically this is something  that's so minor but so huge and like helpful to  

  • me and then in some pages like my goals page i did  this thing where i made each header italicized as  

  • you can see so i did that by selecting the  text and pressing command shift e and this  

  • is a shortcut to turn text into an equation but  it also works on regular words to make it just  

  • look a little fancy the only thing is if you want  to apply this to two or more words it doesn't  

  • really work because it removes the space between  them but you can select each word individually  

  • and then apply the shortcut and that will maintain  the space between the words and then you can add a  

  • background color or change the text color too so  next up i want to show you how to create columns  

  • i love creating columns i feel like it's usuallymore efficient way to use your space on your page  

  • so to create a column you just need to create  your blocks so i like to add some kind of text  

  • to them to make it easier for me to like see the  blocks because if not they're like invisible so  

  • once we have our blocks i'll grab one by the  six dots drag it to the end of another block  

  • until that blue vertical line shows up and then  release and now you've got your columns and you  

  • can add as many columns as you want i meanhaven't added more than like five columns but  

  • you can try it and let me know how many you're  able to make i don't know what the maximum is  

  • so i did this when i was creating my agenda socreated all the headings for each day of the week  

  • i just dragged each of them and created columns  that way and then i even used a little shortcut  

  • that we learned earlier to turn the text into  that fancy font and then added a background color  

  • so now i'm going to show you how i created some  of my widgets so let's first start with my weather  

  • widget i went to weatherwidget.io set my location  went to themes and i chose the beige theme they  

  • have lots of themes already pre-made and thenchose a font that i liked chose animated icons and  

  • then clicked get code copied it to my clipboard  and then went to this other website called  

  • option.co so you do need to create an account on  the site it's free and you can use your google  

  • account again but on here you'll need to create  an embed you can name it paste the code that we  

  • just copied and click generate url so now you have  this url that you can paste into your notion page  

  • create embed and now you have a weather widget and  you can drag the corner to play with the size and  

  • the look as well but just be careful becausethink you'll only get three free uses to create  

  • an embed on action and then you would need to pay  for the subscription in order to create more so  

  • on my agenda page i like having this little mini  calendar it helps me visualize where in the month  

  • we are i mentioned it in my previous video butmade this by using the website indify.com and they  

  • have some nice widgets for like google calendar  quotes a countdown and i use their google calendar  

  • widget and you can choose whichever calendar  to show in the widget most people use this to  

  • actually show their calendar and all their events  but i literally just wanted a plain clean calendar  

  • with nothing on it so in my actual google calendar  i literally created a new calendar named it notion  

  • and it's completely blank i don't even use it  it's just for the widget so on indify i select  

  • that calendar and you can customize the look of  the widget as well but once i had it to my liking  

  • i just copied the link at the bottom and then  pasted url but now it's embedded on the page so  

  • now i want to show you how to create templates  templates are really convenient if you need to  

  • quickly create some sort of layout repeatedly  so in my agenda i created this new week template  

  • button at the top i just type backslash button  create a new template button and this whole block  

  • that just popped up is where you configure what  your button does so you can rename it so i named  

  • mine new week and then the template at the bottom  is what you'll see when you click the button so  

  • you can add whatever you want here so i wanted to  automatically create a new weekly thread for me  

  • so when i click this button i want to see all of  this instead of having to copy and paste my spread  

  • each week which would make the columns disappear  anyway which i mentioned in my last video which is  

  • annoying so i'm going to show you how i formatted  my template button so right now it has a to-do  

  • list but i don't want that so i'm just going  to delete it and start typing the days of the  

  • week the only thing is you can't create columns  inside this template block see if i try to drag  

  • this block to create a column it won't let me so  actually what you need to do is create the layout  

  • inside a new page drag and drop the page into  this template block and then turn the page into  

  • text so here i'll show you so first let's create  a new page we'll just call it a new week open the  

  • page turn on full width and now i'm going to  type the days again select all the blocks and  

  • add a background color then drag to create your  columns then i'm going to select all the text  

  • and turn it into an equation to change up the font  i'm also going to add in my mini calendar so embed  

  • paste link and drag it before monday and now i'm  gonna finish up formatting the days so i like to  

  • add a to-do list under each day as well asdivider to separate my top priority tasks for  

  • the day those go on top of the divider and then  other miscellaneous tasks go below it and then  

  • i'm going to select and copy paste it under each  day i'm not sure why there's a space above it but  

  • we can just delete all of those and there we have  it our weekly layout is pretty much done so now  

  • let's go back to the main page click the gear icon  to configure the button again and drop this page  

  • into the template now just turn it into text and  voila all the columns are still there your button  

  • is formatted and your weekly spread is ready so  i'm just going to delete this text at the top  

  • because we don't need it anymore and instead i'm  going to create a format for the week and date so  

  • i'll turn this into heading 2 add in a week number  colon month number dash number and then turn these  

  • into inline codes so that i can remember to  change these according to whatever week or  

  • month or day we're on and ta-da my button is now  fully configured so let's test it so i'm going to  

  • close this click the button and there we have it  our weekly spread is ready to be filled in just  

  • change the header and you're good to go and then  some people also asked about my archive i have  

  • an archive on a couple of my pages i do have one  for my agenda down here but it's literally just  

  • a page that i named archive so notion actually has  free templates and their weekly agenda template  

  • also features an archive so i kind of took the  idea from there but in order to create an archive  

  • i just created a page named it archive changed  the icon and you know whenever one week ends  

  • i have to create a new spread for the upcoming  week so let's say this was last week turn the  

  • old week's header into a toggle drag everything  into the toggle and then drag the toggle into the  

  • archive and if i open the archive i can see all  of my previous weeks and i like having the toggle  

  • because i can open or close each week rather than  just having all the days listed out because then  

  • that would make a really long page so i like being  able to collapse all of them the only thing is  

  • my columns disappear so when we drag the week into  the column all the columns just disappear but i  

  • honestly don't mind it because i don't really  check my archive a lot like the archive is for  

  • very rare occasions when i might need to look back  at a certain date for a certain task and i haven't  

  • really had to do that yet but i'm just trying  to make it easy for future michelle in case i do  

  • ever need to do that but yeah i've tried different  things to try and keep the columns i've googled it  

  • but i haven't been able to find a solution so i've  kind of just settled with the fact that it's not  

  • possible at this time at least but if anyone knows  of a way please let me know in the comments so in  

  • my content planner i wanted to go over editing  templates in databases so databases are anything  

  • like tables lists boards any calendars that you  have you can add templates in these databases as  

  • well so let's say i want to add a new video idea  i'll click new maybe it's a thrift haul i'll open  

  • it as a new page and add a new project template  this particular project template is something that  

  • i created myself but i did take a lot of inspo  from thomas frank and i'll link his video in  

  • the description box but this is how i plan out my  videos but yeah you can create your own templates  

  • in databases as well just like how we created the  template button you can create a new template here  

  • before you put anything on a page or you can tap  the three dots to the top right of a database  

  • click templates and edit existing ones or addnew one at the top it'll remind you that you're  

  • editing a template in a database now you can  format how you want the template to look so  

  • if i were to recreate my project template i would  put youtube project template add my goal and turn  

  • it into a call out you can change this emoji as  well but i like the light bulb make sections for  

  • my title ideas thumbnail ideas research and notes  my toggles for my script my b-roll list my editing  

  • checklist and my publishing checklist then i'll go  back to the page click the button to bring up the  

  • new template that i just made and now it's ready  for you to use i've also done this for my journal  

  • when i'm creating new entries and even my recipes  page to jot down the ingredients and instructions  

  • the next thing about databases is that you can  create linked databases i like briefly touched  

  • on this on my last video but to go a little more  in depth i have this one main database which is my  

  • project tracker and this is a table that contains  all of my video ideas this is the first database  

  • that i created on this page and then i created  this content calendar which is linked to the  

  • first table and you know that it's linked because  there's this little arrow at the front here and i  

  • just created this calendar because it's easier  for me to visualize when things are going live  

  • so whatever i do on this calendar like if i add  a new project it'll show up in the table and  

  • vice versa and to create a linked database  just type backslash linked linked database  

  • and then find the database that you want to link  to so you can type in search and make sure it's  

  • the right one create a calendar view then you  can delete the other views if you know you don't  

  • want it and i like to go to properties add the  platform and status and that's it so sometimes  

  • it is handy to have two different views of the  same information and linked databases are the  

  • best way to do that so those are all the tips that  i wanted to share i hope you guys found it helpful  

  • these are the ones that i used a lot when i was  setting up my pages and ones that i thought would  

  • be the most helpful for you guys so if you have  any others that i didn't mention leave a comment  

  • below and let's share the knowledge and if you  enjoyed this video please give it a thumbs up  

  • subscribe share and turn on my bell notification  and i will see you guys in my next video bye

hello my sweet potatoes it's michelle and today  i'm going to show you how to take your notion from
