How to use Notion
March 3, 2024
Having positive habits isn't something you stick to; it's a way to enjoy your life. Habits are the secret to success, productivity, and growth. In this blog post, I'll walk through how you can track and manage habits in Notion. To create good habits, we will use a reward system and motivational quotes. This has completely changed my thinking about forming habits.
Understanding the Habit Tracker
The first thing you see on the habit tracker's home page is the overview chunk. This section gives a quick view of your progress, lets you spot trends, and adjust your habits if needed. It's essential for setting the stage for your daily check-ins.
Daily Habit List
Next, you can check your daily habits in the 'Today' section or through the access buttons on the left. This feature helps you track the completion of your habits with ease. You can also choose motivational quotes from your collection. They may inspire you to complete your daily habits.
Motivational Quotes
When you choose a quote, look for the star icon to start next to it — it means you've favored it. This quote system can be a powerful motivator and keep you on your toes about your goals and why you even started in the first place. The quote system, which I'll go over in the later sections, is where we created some sites where anyone can open an account, write to the chat group, and get paid.
Rewards to Keep You Motivated
The reward section is crucial in keeping you motivated. It shows your rewards and milestones, which is a great way to celebrate small wins and keep up the momentum. Below this is your habit book, where you can add new goals and rewards.
Setting Goals and Tracking Progress
Accessing the reward page allows you to select a goal's start and end times. Below, you'll find the progress for that date. It will help you track your journey toward your goal. When the goal's end date is reached, the system reminds you to settle your reward.
Activity Log for Accountability
Return to the habit page to add entries to your activity log. Clicking the log button also records the current time, making accountability easier. This is an excellent feature for thinking about your daily progress and patterns.
Insights into Goals and Rewards
The insights gained from the reward section allow you to see the goals and rewards set for each habit. If the reward block says 'reward settlement,' the goal's deadline is up. It's time to settle your reward. After completing this process, you can archive it to keep your tracker organized.
Navigating Your Habit Tracker
A navigation bar at the top of your tracker lets you access different pages, like quotes. You can add new quotes and mark favorites here using the quick add button on the left. Also, you can drag and drop quotes into your favorites list. This makes it easy to collect motivational resources.
Tracking Quotes by Authors
If you have favorite quote authors, you can keep track of their quotes. The author section shows quotes from various authors. It can add a personal touch to your motivation.
Reviewing Performance
The report will enable you to check your cycle and achievement for the week or month, and we will continue coming as you continue with the cycle. It also shows how many habits you complete on average from your habit list.
Quick Add Section for Efficiency
You can then return to the quick add section in the bottom left side of the main page, plus the add habits, rewards, and quotes. When forgetting to reward your habit, a reminder keeps you aligned with your goals.
Conclusion
