Daily Diary - Free Notion Template

This is a very simple and minimalistic daily journal template without the need for a database, therefore it's faster to load. Duplicate the template to your Notion workspace from here:  https://tt-templates.notion.site/diary-1aa601ae02cb4b4ea84ba8ea4a2bfb8e Adding new entries First we have the Add a new entry template button. This will automatically create a journal entry page with the current date and time of creation included in the title. Upon opening this page, you'll also find 3 boxes for you to write in, one for reflections - free writing, and the other 2 in a separate column to list the day's achievements and things that you're grateful for.  You can of course add more prompts and callout boxes by clicking the ⚙️ button next to the "Add a new journal entry" button to edit the template page. Archive system No database? No problem. Here you have a page for each year and each month to serve as your archives. To create a new set of 12 months archives for n

New Page template button with timestamp in the title - Notion

These days I'm all about discovering ways for people to use Notion  without  the use of databases, as databases slow things down. I'm also an advocate for minimalism while still having an efficient workflow. Today I'm giving a tip with an example of daily journal entries. Usually, a Notion template comes with a database for journal pages, with a "Date created" property which is mighty convenient. But you can also replicate that without a database.  This will make it super fast for you to start journaling on a new page with the current date and time already added to the title. Create a simple text page where all your journal entries will be stored (no databases/tables). Optional: You may create a subpage to serve as an Archive for past entries. Again this should be a simple text page, not a database. You may also have multiple archives, named after the 12 months or years to keep things more organized. Type / , then template , then select the Template button . Give

Easy access to blocks within a Notion page on your phone

Notion's link to block feature meets Google's Action Blocks . Notion's pages tend to look rather long and overwhelming on the phone. Set up shortcuts for any and as many blocks as you'd like, even if they reside on the same page, for easy access. Get the links and create the shortcuts On your desired block, click on the 6 dots, and from the context menu, tap on "Copy link to block". Open Action Blocks, tap on "Create action block" and select "Open a link". Paste the Notion link to block, click Next, select an icon of your choice, name it, "Save action block" and drag the new icon to your homescreen. To open the links from the Notion app Tap and hold Notion icon until it bounces and tap on the tiny "i" icon on its top right corner. Tap on the "Set as default" section, enable "Open supported links". Also on the same section, tap on "Supported Web Addresses" and enable them all. Disclaimer:

Free daily bullet journal template for Notion

Another free template for Notion users. This one is a simple daily and weekly bullet journal, with the option for recurring tasks or daily habits! The template blocks make it easy to create a new day or a new week with repeated tasks, appointments and habits pre-created (once you setup the template block the first time). Watch the video above on how to use the template. Duplicate the template from here. Probably the best (or weird depending how you find it) part: This template doesn't use ANY databases (unless you want to make some for other reasons, like your collections).So it's fast to navigate, and it's simple and easy to use. The old days and weeks can easily be drag and dropped in an archive page, and you can choose to save them or delete the entire archive after a while. The "today" block also comes with a dedicated page for daily journal entries. Since it's inside the specific day block, it will be archived with it when it's done.  On the left side
