Love your approach to segmenting your day❣ Could you talk more on the difference between deep and shallow work?

[@itskatwaugh]

Absolutely! I’ll keep that in mind for a future video 🙌

[@JayleeOCO]

Thanks for the video! This was super helpful as I am a beginner to using Notion. Unrelated question: What software do you use to screen record while you remain in frame at the bottom right of your video? I am a small content creator looking to enhance my editing skills. Thanks!

[@itskatwaugh]

I'm so glad you found it helpful! I actually don't use any software. I have a camera set up in front of me and I just use the screen recording feature on my MacBook! I edit all my videos in Premiere Pro :)

[@peterpansdawg]

Is there any way to purchase the templates from you through email while your site is down? Like PayPal or cash app? I was really hoping to get started with the daily planner one

[@itskatwaugh]

Hey there, not at the moment! My templates got a bit of an upgrade for better navigation on the mobile app, formulas compatible with Notion Formulas 2.0, and a few extra features. I'm still putting the finishing touches on them, so they aren't quite ready yet. They should be back by the end of the week!

[@itskatwaugh]

Hey there, so sorry for the delay, but my templates are back! You can find them here: katwaugh.com/shop

[@xxsxxcvuwu1127]

on the “time” section of the ideal schedule, there is an “open” next to each time, how did you get rid of it?

[@itskatwaugh]

There's not technically a way to get rid of it because each row opens to a database page. But they should disappear unless you mouse over them!

[@darlanegron]

Hello where I can purchase the templates ? The link for the etsy shop doesn’t work

[@itskatwaugh]

Hey! I'm actually working on moving off of Etsy onto my own website! I'm super excited about this, but unfortunately there's going to be a bit of downtime with the move. They'll be back so soon! You can sign up for updates at katwaugh.com. 🫶

[@itskatwaugh]

Hey there, my shop is back up and running! You can find the templates here: katwaugh.com/shop

good video - we get the shiny object syndrome sometimes and just have to keep it realistic and simple

[@itskatwaugh]

Totally! I know I'm guilty 🤣 Thank you!

[@basil1416]

is there a way for the table to only show a specific option?

[@itskatwaugh]

I’m not sure I entirely understand your question, but you can completely customize what is show in this table!

[@sumahomes8177]

Do you get remainder call in phone?

[@itskatwaugh]

I'm not sure I understand the question... 🤔

[@sisulfahanwar120]

How to drag the repetitive action to the right?

[@itskatwaugh]

You unfortunately can’t drag it on a row, only by a column!

[@sisulfahanwar120]

@@itskatwaugh thanks so much for the reply sister!
