Great tutorial but I could not add in all 3 options "To Do" in "Status" property. I could add only "Wishlist" in To Do . Can anyone help me ?

[@evamuller8935]

Wow! I’ve literally gone from not knowing a thing and very frustrated (and I was under pressure to get this, fast !) to freaking loving Notion in less than an hour ! I’m not finished with the tutorial yet but had to write here. This guy knows how to teach !!! I can’t thank him enough for this!

[@HardCast_ENT]

This is how you know that this is high quality content.... I literally came straight to the comments to show my appreciation, (after liking and subscribing of course), and you literally said what I was thinking lol. Definitely a game changer for me and workflow. 💪💪

[@yashny]

Me too! I was so blur and almost gave up but now I can do it myself without needing to constantly look at a guide

[@TextbookFriends]

This is what I wanted to say too

[@rovic2hacking505]

This course deserves million views, I dont knnow why it has fewer watchers.

[@ThePooyanmokri]

Because it has too many ads played in between the video

[@josefine.west37]

Because people think they can master things in 2min video walkthroughs 🤯

[@Fooy.]

Wow this is literally one of the best Notion courses in the internet! I love that he explains everything and gives an everyday example for it, Notion was a thing I'm having trouble learning because I couldn't really find someone who explains it well, I finally managed to learn this powerful tool and FINALLY organize my work. I'll definitely check your paid courses to get even better at Notion! Thank you so much

[@ProductiveDude]

This made my day. Thank you for the kind words. ❤

Excuse me bro, I would like to know, what did you mean of that idiom( This video may be the best thing since sliced bread). Because I'm Arabic and I'm interested to understand the idioms. Thanks in advance.

[@ai-foundations]

@@mohammedgalal776 Hey there Mohammed, what I mean is this video is going to be very good, or revolutionary for the Notion community. Pre-sliced bread when it came out was considered a remarkable thing. Therefore, I mean this video is the next best thing since the idea of pre-slicing bread. No hyperbole.

Well, first of all and most importantly, thank you. I’m a very senior aged person and a very technical space with a lot of technology platforms which created enormous anxiety for me but your video helps so much. There’s a bigger picture than just the instruction part so thank you.

It is the most beginner-friendly course on Notion. Well done you just earned subscribers. Despite using Notion to manage recruitment processes for my clients, this is the video I have been looking for.

[@vardhanyash24224]

The best thing about this tutorial is that he does not just spit out some information and jargon, he meticulously took us through each and every feature and also talked through on when one might need it, loved it.

Hello Brother, it's a pleasure to follow you, you're a great human being and technically very well-working. SMALL NOTE PLEASE: try to move from one command to another command a little bit slowly to allow us to catch what's happening, otherwise, you are doing a really great job and just thanks is nothing for what you deserve.

This is an amazing tutorial, thank you for the effort you out into it. I was looking for a productivity app that meets ALL my needs in one place (rather than juggling between different apps and websites) and I had a feeling that Notion was just that and your video proved my suspicions right! This is excellent and I will be using all your tips and tricks for my work and maybe even everyday life.

I have been learning about how to use notion and indeed this helped me.

[@NexusWithNature]

thank you so much sir... i came to know across many things although i was using notion for many month but i wasn't aware about its feature

[@varniitpro]

Hey Carter, you rock. I was not expecting this course to go that deep. I am new to the Notion. Joined several times but ended up getting out. But this time, 2 months ago, joined in, with hopes of finally giving time to learn this super note app. I did, and your video was super helpful. I tried doing demo side-by-side but most were too advanced and professional, so I will be revisiting or checking those features later on. Anyway, you made a great course. Would like your courses on Google suite and MS suite and CRMs in the future. 👍

Notion overwhelmed me so much, so I tried keeping a journal book......failed miserably.....turns out it's impossible for me, personally, to keep track of all areas of my life in one single notebook, it all gets so messy My 2023 & 2024 was messy as hell..... while there were some incidents that were out of my control, still I could've faced those situation & other tasks with much clearer vision & precise planning....I didn't even keep a proper digital calendar to see how my life is unfolding itself.....As a result, my mind is full of gunk now but I've been working on it for the past few months ..... I'm a lot better now.....But Notion is my final step Can't wait to be an organized person 😻

[@n1vca]

Best tutorial ever - Congrats! Thanks so much for this approach that is much better for my way of learning than the others I have seen. One minor criticism, please move your own image into a spot where it doesn't block the conten you are showing us ... there is plenty of free space in the lower left or lower center, while the right has this permanent long list of options, being occasionally blocked. How ironic, after 1:17:00 you actually do exactly that :-) so disregard that criticism - great work!

Hey ProductiveDude, you are awesome . . . (so is your brother). What I like most about you is you really seem to want people to learn the tools you discuss. Vs. some of the other Notion and Midjourney dudes on youtube seem more interested in showing how brilliant they are and how fast they can do things. Makes me wonder if they are recording their videos and then speeding them up making it virtually impossible to learn anything. Thank you for what you do.

[@ProductiveDude]

My brother and I both appreciate YOU. This stuff is the future. I’m just trying my best to share it with people that are hungry to change, learn and adapt.
