Never bought something so quickly after reading excited to get stuck in and fill mine out for an amazing 2025! 💜

Wow, wow, wow! This is incredible! I am usually a paper planner girlie, but recently I have started to look into Notion. I love the beginning where you have the yearly planning and reflection like a bullet journal does. My goal is to become organised in a way that works for me in Notion and this is a great starting point for ideas. Thank you for your hard work and sharing! God bless

All day I spent exploring and filling your template, Ciara. I’m in love! Great job! Perfect structure, easy to understand.
I’m collecting some questions, I will write it here soon if I will not be able to understand it on my own. Hope to get a response from you.

I bought a different template for 2024 and hated it so much. Thank you for actually syncing stuff and using formulas. can't wait to check it out and use it for 2025!

[Cisioq]

Great work! I unfortunately can't afford this atm but do appreciate you sharing it with people. EDIT: Nevermind just got it after watching the whole video lol

[EpicScream]

Looks great! If I buy this template, will I have to pay a Notion subscription? I have not used Notion before. Thanks! Keep up the great work!

[ChemistryClassWithWyDee]

Very good management, i’ll try to improve mine. Thank u so much and keep going 😊😊

Hello Ciara, I love your content and have recently saved up to purchase your template which really resonates for me. I was only familiar with some basics of Notion though and am already finding it challenging to negotiate setting up a new year/months with accurate dates for 2025 and other issues... I am wondering if you could possibly do some step-by-step videos of each of the functionality sections for the Notion-illiterate of us? Thank you!

[louiselynch]

Hoping this will help me get organised. There was a lot in this video. Some plan with me style videos would be great - from new area of life down (little confused where areas of life, areas of focus and projects cross, but maybe reading the book you suggested would help there). I would love to see how you might breakdown research areas of life.

Thanks so much, YouTube, for recommending this video! Subscribed. I love your template. I will try to get it before January 1. I love that Notion is finally formula-friendly for planners like this. So rubust! I love it.

I am freshman to research, thanks for making my work bit easy

[Analibustra]

This Notion organization looks good and complicated :) Have you every struggles with putting in all the tasks you should do on the weekly basis? Any tips and tricks for missing something out?

[Mrs.Perez]

Do the automations work on a free account? Also I was wondering if you’d share the formula for the calendar? I’ve got my own system and would love to add that but I don’t have a good grasp on formulas just yet. Also a tip to copy something down quickly if you select the thing and click on the small dot and drag it down it copies the text so you don’t have to select individually.

I purchased this planner, and I can't wait to get it working for me!!! I do have a question though regarding recurring tasks. Am I missing how to set that up? I keep my bills in Google Tasks and they recur each month on the date due. So if I got paid on time, I put it into month view and pay everything on the first when I get paid. But it allows me to juggle bills if I'm between work contracts and not getting paid or getting paid from multiple contracts throughout the month. I'm really hoping this is possible!!! I'd been working on the tutorials for Notion the past few weeks and decided today, I'd must rather pay you LOL

[sophierappich]

It’s great but a couple of things don’t seem to work for me. I can’t link anything in the year at a glance view 😢 but this is something I have been looking for for ages!

[SutthathipRattanamongkol]

I need to buy this great template, May i know can i adjust some figure later to match my lifestyle and purpose of use

[hjeuleieanya]

Hi! First of all, congratulations, this template is amazing! I'm loving what I'm seeing!

I was wondering if is there any chance you record a video on how you created it? Of course it doesn't need to be fully explained because of reasons, but maybe something a bit less robust would be cool. I honestly kind of hate myself because of me asking you this, but since I can't afford it, I would like to recreate your system (basically, because as far I've watched, it might be one of the templates I could totally use).

Thanks! Love your work!

[zinabkadiri]

Omg this template is amazing ❤❤❤❤ but unfortunately i don't have enough money to buy it if you can make a youtube video how to creat this dashboard by my own
