Not a fan of Notion, but this worth considering. I love the agile methods :)

Thanks. Why don't you like Notion?

I don't know, I'm a fan of Excel because I can work with it like a data base and use it with many other tools. Maybe I'm too techy for Notion.

😀 Some people think they aren't techie enough for Notion. So they settle on spreadsheets!

There are many things you can do in Notion that you can't do in a spreadsheet. It all comes down to a workflow that works for you

This is a great and detailed video. I need this to stay on task. This is so helpful. I started using Notion but only on my phone for reading. Now this is a one stop shop. I will be using this for a more organized flow. Thank you for the step by step.

Thank you!

What do you want to use it for?

My pleasure. I will be using it now to be more organized for my blog posts and articles. I will be using it for organizing to stay on task for my upcoming courses and ebooks. I’ll also use this when we start our small business back up for more productivity.

Great breakdown!

I simplified my stages into: Idea+outline / drafted / published.

I need finer resolution. Makes it easier to decide what to work on

Hi Alberto, thanks so much for sharing your process.

I'd like to ask this:

How many articles do you keep in each stage at any one time?

I have a list for Ideas just like you, it is long and gets new things often.

But once I start working on one article I usually get it done in one sit down.

I do follow pretty much the same steps/stages you have, but they are separated by minutes (quick break).

All together it takes me 1 to 2 hours per article. and it's fully done and scheduled.

What is the benefit you feel having multiple articles in various stages?

Thanks in advance.

My articles take longer, so it's impossible to finish them in one sitting for me. Besides that, waiting a day between drafting and editing is always beneficial.

That said, there's no prescribed amount of articles at any stage.

I just try to have at least one stage. So, depending on the day and on the moment, I pick what I know I can work on.
