So Notion is a highly versatile Productivity application which you can use to manage your tasks effectively. Not only Task, you can use it to create documents and do a lot of other stuffs. In Notion. Notion is a place where you can create different kinds of things. Like you can create your Tools, you can create databases, images, and so on. One of the best features of Notion is the ability to have multiple pages. You can even nest these pages within each of them. And within pages, you can have different blocks. Now these blocks can be of different kinds. You can have a block which represent an image. You can have a block which represents a list, or you can even have a block which showcases a database. Notion overall is a tool that can be used to manage your projects effectively, your data effectively. Or even it can be used as a note-taking software. So Notion as a tool can be used for different kinds of use cases like product management to do Management and Personal Productivity as well. So there are many use cases that fit with this particular tool Notion. Now why use Notion for Personal Productivity? Notion allows you to create a databases and it allows you to create different Views of this data. So what I mean by this is you can have a database that represents all your tasks and projects that are ongoing. And you could have a different representation for this database. Throughout your dashboard, you can create your dashboard which gives you different views of your data. If this is something that seems overwhelming to you, Don't worry. Throughout the course, we will be taking a look at all of these features and explore every bit of them. Notion, on the other hand, has powerful customization features. Like it allows you to create some dashboard, different Views, and everything can be customized as per your requirement. Also, Notion is a web application as well as it has the mobile apps, which enables you to stay on top of your tasks and ongoing project even if you are not on your desktop and on the goal. Lastly, Notion is a free tool. Of course, Notion has its paid version as well. Notion's free version comes with no limitations. So you can create unlimited number of blocks, like unlimited number of pages and so on. So for managing your tasks, you don't need to have a paid version of this particular software. That's Notion for you. Thank you. 3. Getting Started With Notion: Let us start setting up our Notion account. So what we're going to do is we're going to head over to Google. And I'm going to search for Notion. Now once you search, you are going to see this first link which says Notion dot. So you can click on this one. This is the official website of Notion. Once this loads, you can read a bit if you wish to about Notion. So this is what the UI of Notion looks like. And you can see Wall uses Notion. You can just go through their landing page to learn a bit more about them. What I'm going to do is I'm going to create Notion account. So I'm going to say login. And if you have an account, you can continue with Google, Apple, or you can enter your email. Or if you don't have their account, you can simply go over to the homepage and say get Notion for free. And here you can enter your email or you can choose the way you wish to sign up for this particular service. So it's a free account that we are going to use. So I would request you all to choose any of this option. So you can either continue with your email or you can continue using Google or Apple account. So after you choose your favorite method, you might be asked for some onboarding questions like this. You can choose the answers and you can go forward. Now, once you have finished the onboarding, you are going to land on this screen where you will be shown some tooltips like this. So here on the left-hand side, you have different options. On the right-hand side, you have some it takes to get started. On the left-hand side, you can see like you have options like the search. You can search for anything across Notion's. I'll just zoom in a bit here you have a way to get updates, updates for all peaches. You will be able to see over here. You have a way to check your settings, and here you have a way to create a new page. Now, Notion comprises of pages over here. So here on the left-hand side, these options that you see like Getting Started, quick note, personal home, these are all pages and you have the ability to add a page over here. I can add a page and I can call this my to-do list tracker. Okay? And I can choose what I want the speech to be. So it can be an empty page, or I can import something, or I can choose from some of the templates. Or I want this page to be a table board timeline calendar and so on. I'll just stick to the empty page for now. So this way you can create the page. Here on the left-hand side, bottom, you're going to see some more things like templates. Create a team space. You can import like word, markdown or a shaman. Here you have trash. So whatever you delete goes in. Here. This is Notion, and here's how you can set up your Notion account 4. Overview of What We Will Build: Now when it comes to setting up a Notion Templates, it's important that the template is well structured and organized so that you can follow it for long term. So I have different sections that I follow. The number one section is the daily section. This section talks about the tasks that I'm supposed to do today, what is overdue, and the tasks that I'm supposed to look after tomorrow. So there are two divisions over here. On the left-hand side, I talk about the today and right-hand side gives me a hawk eye view of the overdue tasks and what am I supposed to pick up tomorrow. Then I have a Weekly View. And this gives me a hawk eye view of the week. And I have this week as well as next week. So the Weekly View gives me an overview of what my this week will look like and also my next week. So grouping tasks by daily and weekly, it is going to give you a good overview of what things look like. And this also gives you an overview of your capacity. And it helps you avoid the worst scheduling of the tasks. So it will give you a realistic view of what can be achieved in a day and also in a week. Then I have a section for Unscheduled Tasks. So on the left-hand side, you will have Task with no due date. And these are the tasks where you have not entered any deed and you have just added them as a task. And on the right-hand side, you have a monthly calendar view of all the tasks. So you know which Task is supposed to be completed by when. And this section gives you an opportunity to set due dates to the Task which have no Views. So since you have a monthly calendar view over here, you can take a look at your capacity and you can set dues for the task that you have on the left-hand side. This section really helps you setting due dates for something that you have not considered. And then in the end, we are going to have a way to jot down notes, Task Inbox, and Tasks completed. The Notes section is just a space for you to write anything you wish to. So this can be a reflection or any observations that you want to jot down. Then you have Task Inbox. And this is a list of all the tasks that you have. And basically you add all your new Task over here. Of course, you can add Your Task anywhere in the View. But Task Inbox is actually the place that is meant to be for that. Then you have a section for Tasks completed, and this will give you an overview of what you have achieved so far and it will keep you motivated. So seeing a list of all the Completed things always keeps you motivated. Because it tells you that, hey, you are making a progress there. So that is what this is supposed to do. This is what our template is going to look like. So we're going to go through the process of creating and setting up this template completely. And if you feel that your work requires you to tweak this template or better. So you can feel free to do that and you can customize it to your own needs. 5. Setting Up the Task Inbox: So let us start creating our to-do list striker. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to just collapse this left-hand side. Here on this page that we have created. I'm going to see slash. Forward slash will give you a lot of options over here. With the help of this, you can tell Notion, What do you want to add to this particular page? So I'm going to need a database. I'm going to say I need a database in line. Now what is the database? So databases are one of the powerful features of Notion and they help you store data within them. And with the help of databases, you can give your different Views. You can sort, filter and interact with them. Okay? So since we are working with to-do list over here, I'm going to have a database for to-do lists. I'm going to see Inline database. Like so. You will see this view appear over here. Now what I'll be doing is I will be going over here. I'm going to rename this particular database, and I'm going to call this as Task List. So this is a word Task List. And we want to have this in the form of table. And what all properties do you want this database to have? Are the stable to have? So I'm going to click over here. And you're going to see to default properties like name and tax. And then you have various options. Like you can filter data, we hear sort data, group. And you can do a lot of things over here. Now this database over here is our Task Inbox. And we're going to have this as a Task Inbox. I'm going to say Heading one. So I can see over here heading one, and I'm going to call this as Task Inbox. Now over here, I have an option. So on this three button, I can hide the database title. So we can even give our database our title. So I'll say, I'll call this as Task List itself. Now, let us set some properties over here. So first, I'm going to have nim. I'll need some tags over here. Okay? I'll need more properties apart from these two. Now to add more properties, you can click on this plus icon over here. The moment you click on this, you're going to see this pop-up which asks you, what kind of property are you trying to create? So I'm trying to create a property which is going to help me store complete by. So I'm going to have my Task Name. I'm going to have due date. I'm going to have time created. So when I created this particular task, I'm going to have priority, like so. I'm also going to have status and this will tell me whether it's checked or not checked. So this will keep track of whether my Task has been done or not. Okay, and then I'm going to have tags. So tags is going to tell me what kind of Task doses. So it can be my personal, it can be my office work and so on. So these are the properties that we are going to have. I have named, I have tags. I'm going to see. So here I'll scroll down. I'll say deed and alcohol this as complete by by when do I need to complete this particular task? And then I'll add one more. I'll say created. So this will be date and created, like so. And then I'm going to also have priority. I'll say priority. So this will be a selection and we're going to have different priority levels. So I'm going to show you now, okay, so priority, like so. And over here, you can add more options. So it's best to have just three priorities. So I'll say low. And I'll say hi. And I'll say medium. And I'll click over here so we have bags priority and then we need status. And this will be a checkbox. So here you can select checkbox and I can see status. So we are done by adding all the fields. And I'm just going to align this a bit. So here if you hover, you have V to get everything in a single view. Right now we have a horizontal scroll bar and it's going outside the screen. So you can let like this and bring it within a single list. Okay? So I have everything in a single View. Now. Now, I can start adding some Task over here. Alright? Now you can create a tasks this way. So you can say Task one here, and in tags, you can have some options here. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to edit this property. And I can have options over here. So I can say personal, office or you can see follow-ups and so on. So you can have different tags that represent the kind of work you're doing. And you can select whatever you want to. So you can say follow-ups, office. And those tags will come up over here. Then you can have complete by and here you can enter the date by when you intend to finish this particular task. You can have create time. And if you click on this and if you see Edit here, we want create it time to be auto populated. So instead of type over here, type date, I'm going to select this as created time over here. Now this will be auto created. So you can see automatically the greeted time was populated as and when these rules were created. Okay, if you want to delete any row, you can click on this and you can delete. If you want to delete this, you can delete. Okay? Then you have the priority. You can set the priority has high, low, and medium. You can even give custom colors that you wish to. Let's say if I want high to be in red, I can have read assigned to high. For medium, you want yellow, so you can have yellow over here. And for low if you want something. So let's say I want blue. So you can have blue over there. You can Customize Colors, your high, and then you have status over here. So this is done or not done. Alright? So this is our Task Inbox, and here's where we are going to keep adding all the tasks. So I will just clear this out and we have our Task Inbox ready 6. Templates in Notion: So whenever you add a task over here, you have to add a lot of things. So you might want to add tasks in a particular format, alright? And you might want to store a lot of information about every to do that you do. Now this is where templates come into picture. So here, just beside new, you have this down arrow button. If you click on this, you're going to see templates for Task List. Now, what you can do is you can see the description it has. It says replicate page formats inside this database with templates. So what you can actually do is you can create a template over here, which becomes your templates for every to-do list. And whatever information you enter into that particular pH will be stored as every record over here. Let me show that to you. I'm going to set up a new template over here. So I'm going to say new template. This will open up a pop-up like this. And you can end over here. New task. You have an option to add a cover on an icon. If you wish to add a cover, you can add something like this. So I've added an icon. You can change and customize the icon the way you want. Okay? And then you have the list of information that you are accepting for every tasks. If you wish to reorganize the details over here, you can do so. If you wish to have the priorities first, you can just drag them to the top. If you scroll down, you have an option to add more property. And here you can add more information to this particular page. So what I typically do is I see parts. So for every task I capture any thoughts that I have. For example, if I'm, if I want to work on a course or if I want to work on a video. So whatever idea I have regarding that particular task, I'll just jot down everything that I have in my mind over here. Now whenever I'm working on that, I'll just open up this and I'll see what all things I had in my mind. It really helps when you are working and trying to complete that particular task. Now here below, I'll say forward slash and I'll say calendar. So here you can have a calendar view. So I'll add a calendar view here. And you can have a calendar view for Your Task database. So we have created a Tasks database and you can add a calendar view for that. So I can select the database. Here, does our database Task List. So I'll select this. And you can see you can copy an existing view, but I don't want to make a new View over here. And I said this is calendar, and I'll say calendar. You can also select the different view types over here. So you can see there are quite a few View types like table, board, timeline, List, and gallery. So I'll go ahead with calendar. And you can set some properties over here so you can see shortly to be subtitles. So I don't want to see the database title. I can just do a vivid this. We will see this database Title VII. And how do you want to organize the calendar? So this calendar will show me the list of all tasks that I'm doing or I have to finish. And it will show me by complete by feeded. This is the due date for every tasks. So depending on what you did you have selected, you will see all Your Task appear in the calendar view. Now you can say show calendar as month or week does is just a preference. I prefer month and open pages in St. a. Peak. You can also open side week. So this means if you try to open any pages, it will open as a popup. Or you can open in the site. So it will open from the right-hand side. This is just to View, and I'll say done. This calendar view is added. And this particular view gives you a Hawkeye view of what's happening with your tasks in a particular month. So when you are creating a new tasks or when you're adding something to your tasks, you have an idea of what your month typically looks like. So you can see over here. Okay. So if I'm setting due dates, I know this is all there on my plate. So this really helps. You can even customize this. Or if you don't want, you can just get rid of this. So for some people, this might feel overwhelming, or I have a huge calendar year. But what I believe is this is going to really help. We are done setting up the template. If you go back over here and if you see New here, you have a new tasks template. And then you have an empty template, which is default. So if you want new tasks template to be the default for every task you create, you can like set it as default for all Views. So you can say, I want it for all of you or for this particular view. So I'll select for all Views. Now if I create a new task over here, if I say new, alright, and if I press Enter and if I click on Open, you will see a side peak View open up from here. You have a complete blank template to fill in everything regarding the tasks that you're creating. So it will open a side view wherein you will have the list of all the fields that you should be filling in for the new task that you're creating. Here you can see you have Task one. So this Task one has a due date of July 19. And you can see that in the calendar view. Alright. So I know. Okay, I have one dance do on this particular date. If you fill in all your tasks over here, there will see your calendar automatically thinking because it's linked to the database. And you are going to see a hawk eye view of what your month look like. And while adding the Task, you will have a clarity as to what your current capacity is. Now, what I like to do typically is I like to set multiple templates. Okay, I'll just close this. Now here. I like to set multiple templates, so one template for our new normal Tasks, then I can have a new template created for my courses. So if I have a nucleus idea that I want to do, I can set up a template for that and I can see unintuitive chapters. So whenever I have a course idea and if I add that as a task, and if I have some clarity on the tentative chapters, I'll just jot them down over here. I can even add any references that I've found online or any link to the student feedback. And say link, there is a possibility that I might be making some changes to existing content, are working on something depending on the student feedback. If I can either link it over you or I can just paste the feedback over here. So that is something you can do. And here I have, I can call this as new course, like so. Okay? And you can have an icon here, which can be anything. Alright? So I'll just keep this as the icon. Here you will see two templates. Now, what do you can actually do is you can even remove this as default. So you can see have empty as the default. Okay? Now let us add our Task. I'll see tasks do. I will say Enter, and I'll open this inside beak. Now the moment you open this inside peak, it will tell you which template you want to continue with. They're just showing you the list of templates because Mt was selected. So if it's a new task, if I click this, this template will be revised to whatever is there. If I select new course, this template will be revised to whatever I had entered there. So this really helps. So if you don't want to set anything as a starting point or a default, you can just keep empty as the default. And when you add a new task, you can select from here depending on what the task it is. So this is totally up to you as to what kind of tasks you are adding. So I typically don't add a default or I don't set a default. And I like to select the default from here. And if nothing matches my requirement, and if it's a completely new kinds of tasks or a category that I feel will reoccur in future. I just set it up as a template as well. I create a new template. So it's up to you. So if I select a new task over here, it will just populate everything that this task is needed, like to start, needs to do. And I can set complete date over here, like 20th. And if you scroll down, you'll see 20th ASD complete date for this task. And you can just collapses View. So there is no Save button in Notion. It just automatically saves everything. This is about templates and how you can make use of it. 7. Setting Up Your Daily View in Notion: So let us set up our Daily View. So I'm going to press Enter a couple of times over here to make some room. And I'm going to enter a heading over here called Daily. And here I'm going to create a database View. So I'm going to say data. And you'll get this option linked view of a database. It will ask you to select which database you're creating View for. I'll create, I'll select my database. Now, you will see all your tasks appear on the left-hand side. So I'm going to go to the layout. We're going to keep the table layout. And here I'm going to go to group and I'm going to select the priority. So I'm grouping all the tasks by priority. And what I'm also going to do is go to the properties and I'm going to disable all the properties. Want to see a lot of properties out here. And I'm going to have View added. So as you can see, I have a Daily View and I'll hide this database title. So I have a Daily View which has my task list. Here I can see all the Task with high-priority, low priority, medium priority, and no polarity. So this is the Daily View created. Now what I want to do is I want to filter this to today. So I'll click on Filter. I'll see complete pie. And here I'll see ended is select from here today. This will give me all the tasks that I'm supposed to complete today. Also, I need to get the list of unchecked tasks. I'm going to add one more filter here. And I'm going to see status. This will give me all the tasks that have been added by me that are supposed to be done today and they have been unchecked and it'll be categorized as per priority. Okay, So this gives me a really nice Hawkeye view of what's going to happen today and what am I supposed to focus on? So I'm supposed to pick up the high-priority items first. What I'm going to do is let me add a new tasks. So let's see this particular new task I have, I'll say complete by today. And as add the tag as office. And I'll set the priority as medium. The moment I do this, if you go to medium, you will see new Task up here. And you can click on this to see what this task is and you can start working on this one. Now, in my Daily View, I want to have one more section on the right-hand side, which is going to show me the list of tasks that are overdue and the tasks that are that I'm supposed to pick up tomorrow. What I will do is I'll go to Daily here. I'll press Enter and I'll add a two column Views. I'll say to you, you will see two columns. I'll add that with this. You will have two columns being added here. One is this column, the column one, and then you have the second column here. Now what I'll do is I'll select this table and add this into the View one. Okay? Now I have column two over here. Now in this particular column, I'll add a collapsible list. And this collapsible list is called as toggle list. I'll add this an alcohol this as overdue. Okay. I'll expand this and heal. Within the toggle. I'll see Database. I'll add a link to view of the database. I'll select the Task List database over here. And here, I'm going to add this in the form of List. So I don't want this in the form of table, but in the form of List, I'll hide the database title. And I'll go back. And here. In terms of properties, I will hide everything, okay, so I will just have the Task Name up here. If you want to add more properties, you can add like the priority status and so on. But I want to so I'll be like this and yeah, we are done. So you are seeing all the tasks over here. Now these are, this should be the overdue tasks. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to add a filter over here. I'm going to say the filter complete by, and I'll say Start Date. Instead of started, I'll select the end date is before. And here I'll say today. So if the end date is before today, show the tools over here. Now you don't see any to-dos here because there are no such to-dos that had ND before today. But you can change a deed of this particular tasks to 14. Let's say, if you scroll up, you're going to see Task one over here. If you click on this, you're going to see all the details of this task. Now I have the toggle View appear over here. Now I can copy this and paste it just below this. And I can call this as to model. This particular toggle will have the Task for tomorrow. Here also, I'll add a database view. I'll see you to be View like so. We'll select the database. And here I'm going to show this as List again. Hide the title. I'll go back. If you want to show the title, whether you're free to show that, that's perfectly fine. In terms of filter. I'll have complete by start date is as they start date is, and I'll select model over here. Okay? So, yeah, so I'll see the list of all the tasks that I have to do tomato over here. Okay, So this gives me a fantastic daily overview of What am supposed to do right now. So this is my today. If I collapses, you can see everything today. This tells me what I'm supposed to work on tomorrow and what is overdue and pending from me. Now, if you want to hide D groups over here that do not have any item, you can go to this three dots and you can see group. And here you will have an option To hide empty groups. So this will hide all the empty groups. You can see you have only medium level tasks today that you need to finish. And there are three hidden groups which are not visible right now because they don't have any Tasks in them. So this is about the Daily View and how you can set it up 8. Setting Up Your Weekly View in Notion: So let us start setting up the Weekly View. So for Weekly View, I'm going to create some room here just after Dealy. I'm going to add a heading one and call it Weekly. I can select this and give this thing a background color over here. Now here I'm going to have to Views that will give me a hawk eye view of what's happening with my weeks. So here I'm going to see database and I create a link to view of the database. So this will be my Task List database. And here I'm going to say, I need this in the form of table. This, This View should have some grouping. And the grouping will be on the basis of priority. Okay? So you have this over here. I'll go back here and I'll hide the database title here. I'm going to call this view as Weekly View. Or I can say this week The seems better. So this particular view is going to give me an overview of this week. So I'll say filter. And here I'll say complete by, and you can see it has picked up and it is shown the week selected. So this particular view is going to show me a hawk eye view of all the tasks that I'm supposed to complete this week. And here you're seeing there is lot of information, okay, I'm showing everything on my tasks. So I'm going to customize this a bit. I'm going to say edit View. And here I'm going to see hide old properties. Okay? And I'll close this. So you're not going to see all the properties. You're just going to see the name of the properties and the priority. And this will be categorized by week. You can additionally do one more customization wherein you can go to group. You can see Hide Empty groups. So this is going to hide all the empty groups that do not have any Tasks. So this is just going to make your mic, this particular thing look a bit more cleaner. Now what I'm going to do is I am going to add a two columns, two column View. Here I have one column, and here I have the second column. I'm going to drag this column here. Okay? Now, this right side of the column gives me an overview of what's happening this week. Now. I would also want to have an overview of What do I plan to do next week. Okay, so I'm going to copy this database here. Copy link to the View, and I'll paste it over here. So you can do that in paste over here. And you can see created linked view of the database. And you can get the View also over here. So I will see this week is what I want. Metallic customize this week a bit. So I will see next week, like so. And so to add a filter, you can click on Add Filter complete by. And you can see next week. Okay? So it will select the next week and you should see the Task up here over here. Okay, this gives me a nice Hawkeye View. Now I don't want this to be in the table format, so I'll just edit the View here. And instead of table, I'm going to have a simple list. And I won't even group this. So let us remove the grouping as well. I'll say grouping as none. And I'll get rid of this. So you can see like it's a simple view that gives me a list of what's happening next week. But this week I have everything segregated by the priorities. So you are done setting up the View for weeks, okay? So this is how you can set up the Weekly Views for your tasks. 9. Different Views for Your Task: Now I wanted to show you that you can resize this a bit so you can expand this to your screen size. And the sulfate in the entire screen. Now you have some more room. Here. You have a plus button. Beside this week, you have a plus button. You can add a new tab over here. You can select the data source as Tasks less. And you can select on any view you want. And here you can add another layout in which you want your tasks. So you can see, I want this to View as a board. Let's say this will give you an overview of your tasks in the form of bolts. Here you can see high, low, and then if you scroll, you have medium, you have no priority. And since this particular view is grouped by priority, so here if you go, we have groupby priority. So if you want some other fields to come up over here instead of high, low, you can definitely change that. So this is like a Kanban style View. So I'll just rename this to board view. Like so. So this gives you a really nice View in the board format, okay? And you can have a different view at Your Task all your week. So you can add more Views if you want to. So you can edit on this and you can see the different layouts that are available. So you have table, you have timeline view as well. You have to gallery view. You can take a look at different Views and play around with this. So this is where things go really powerful with Notion. Veteran, you have a single database, like we have Task Inbox over here, which we created initially. And now you have different Views of that same data over here. Okay? So let me also expand this a bit as well. Okay? But this is where things start to become more powerful with Notion. Alright? So one database can be reused and it can give you multiple views of data across your pH 10. Managing Unscheduled Tasks in Notion: So let us set up a way to get the view of Unscheduled Tasks in our task lists. So I'm going to add a two column View here. I'm going to see two columns. So we have two columns added here. And I'm going to add or database View here. I'm going to select all the relevant properties. And then I'm going to come over here. And instead of layout table, I'm going to have a list over here. I'm going to hide database title. And here I'm going to filter this. So I'm going to filter this As I'm going to tell, complete by the filter, should be ended, is empty. That is it. Okay? So this will be the filter and this will give me all the tasks without a due date. So if I add a task, let's say No, Do you like so? So I'll see this Task appear over here. Now this task is without due date because I have not added any two over here. Also, we need to add one more filter here. I'll add a filter and I'll see status is unchecked. We need to add status and checked over here as well. So I need to see status and checked. And here also In filter, I need to say status and checked. And in this view as well. So I'll add status and I'll say unchecked. Okay, so here we have a list of tasks that do not have any do. So I'm going to just expand this a bit to fill the screen. And if you want to hide these filters like the conditions, you can click on this blue filter icon and it'll go away. Now on the right-hand side, I'm going to have a calendar view. So I'm going to create this calendar database View. I'm going to link it to the database. Here. I'm going to see the layout should be calendar. And I'll say show calendar by complete by this is a property on the basis of which I'm creating the calendar. And this particular calendar is going to be a monthly calendar. You can change this to Weekly or as per your preference. But we have monthly right now over here. And I'm going to add a filter which will see status is unchecked. So this will give us a hawk eye view of what's happening with this month. And now, if I want to add a due date for this particular task, I can literally drag it over here and I can add it to 21. Okay? Now if you open this Task, this tasks will have the due date of 21. Okay? So you can simply drag drop the tasks from this particular list over here to the list on the right-hand side, or to the calendar on the right-hand side. So it's that helpful. So what I have found is having a calendar on the right-hand side gives you a complete overview of the capacity for the current one. And on the basis of that, you can schedule the tasks from this list for which you have not set any deed yet. Alright, so this is how you can set Views to manage your Unscheduled Tasks. You can also add some title over here. I'll say heading one, and I'll say Unscheduled. And I'll add this, add some styling over you, like so. Alright, so this is about Unscheduled Tasks 11. Setting Up Inbox, Notes and Completed Tasks View: So let us now Set-Up of view for Task Inbox are Notes and getting a view of tasks that we have completed. If I have Inbox over here, I'll scroll down and I'll see two columns here. And here, I'm going to add a database view. So I'll say database. And this is going to be a database view for Tasks Lists. And I'm going to have a list of all the tasks that we have Completed. So I don't want to see any properties, so I'll hide all the properties. I just want a list of tasks that we have checked in. So I will see their status is checked. So this gives us the list of tasks that we have completed. Now if I check this one, you will see this Task appear over here. If I uncheck, this will be removed from here. Okay? So you can add more filters. So I can say filter over here. And I can add a filter to get the tasks that have been completed this month. I can say this month, like so. So it gives you an overview of how things have been this month. And I can keep this filter here and I can close. So you can see Bu filters have been added. And on the right-hand side, I'm going to have some place over here to write any notes that I have. So I will just add some title here. I'll say Notes. And here we can add any sorts of nodes that we want to, okay? Now, anything, any sort of reflection or any tips, suggestions, or anything that you want to jot down. You can have display Sadat. So this is about setting up the last part of our template. I'm going to just expand this view and change this name to Completed Tasks. Like so. Alright? 12. Conclusion: All right, so we have reached the end of this course. And I would also like to mention we here right now is when it comes to Productivity, there is no one size fit all. So different people have different working styles and different preferences. They might be working on different set of projects. And this is why it is really important that whatever you have built in this course, you should customize it for yourselves. So what I would want to see is I will want you all to customize the template that you have created to work for your needs. Now, I use this template to manage all my daily tasks and projects. So I am a content creator. I teach online and I have different projects that are work on at a particular period in time.
