Let me know what ya think! 📣 Download Notion Life OS + new Client & Content OS at www.bettercreating.com/lifeos using Code LIFEOSLAUNCH for 30% off for a limited time! 🎉 existing users: your update emails are coming shortly if not already! :)
I'm like halfway through watching this video and I am so sold on this. You are a genius, thank you so much for building this. This has everything I want and more. I've wasted so much time trying to make other Notion systems I've purchased work. This requires very minimal tweaking! I can see myself using it straight "out of the box." I can see how much thought and work went into building something so intuitive, clean, organised and based on lots of effective principals and strategies. It's implemented all the productivity principals I want. Seriously, can't thank you enough!!
I am still on your free task manager and that alone has a lot of work in it you have done. I highly recommend it. I have added AI to it using the notion API to also help me with tasks Your new system is amazing, lots of work gone into this. Once i can afford it i will get it :) Always good videos Simon and nice a clear.
Yay!!! Congrats on the video!! I've been having such a good time setting up my life OS!! I love how minimal it looks with a structure that's easy for me to stick to and easily change if I need to. I'm ADHD and this system really speaks to me. I've tried other templates and 2nd Brains but those were either inadequate or too foofy or distracting to get anything done. Your Life OS Second Brain is brilliant!!! I feel like I can focus on something that will propel my life forward and not have me spending all my time moving into a productivity system. Thank you for all your hard work. If you ever start an affiliate program, count me in!! Congrats again!! 🎉🎉🎉
I love this Monnique! I'm pretty broken this evening to be honest getting this wrapped up and you have made my evening - thank you so much for the kind words! Hearing how it helps people is the best bit! ahd yes - I do have an affiliate system! drop me an email at notion@bettercreating.com about it and we can get you set up :)
Thanks a lot - that really does mean the world and i hope you enjoy the new version if you move across and thank you for the continued support and engagement! awesome :)
Simon the work you've done on the new Life OS is brilliant - you really have covered all bases. I'm loving it, and am transferring content from the previous version bit by bit. Wish I could just snap my fingers 🤣I appreciate all you do to help Notion novices like me. 🙏🏻
I'm using Obsidian, because the obsolecense-proof, and data ownership. But this "OS" really make me think about the time than i'm spending just setting up my obs... i just wish notion gives you the possibilities to have a more safer/easy way to keep your data.} Amazing job! I will try to use it as inspiration to my obsidian vault!
This system is absolutely wonderful! You have done an incredible job. So far, this is looking like a really wonderful system for managing both my ADHD and the many, many different projects and life areas that I am juggling. I'm especially loving the new Priority Matrix. I struggle a LOT with prioritization of tasks due to my ADHD, but I can typically handle telling whether or not a task is urgent or important. Having these view immensely helps with my ability to get things done, and being able to filter my tasks and projects by life areas is absolutely amazing. Thank you so much, Simon!
Wow! Janet here. I'm looking forward to using this as my content manager as a I start producing content for this channel! I feel it is simple and intuitive to use. It is worth the wait 😊 and lifetime updates! Yes!
Love it! Such an epic two weeks working through the weekends to get there - but I'm super happy with the result! Enjoy! Thanks again for your support and dropping by1
Simon I got your lifeOS last spring and it has been life changing for me. is it possible for current LifeOS users like me to integrate your new features?
Have been using notion and the PPV system for the past three years, and have over time incorporated some of the features in your notion system as well. Was just wondering, have you ever thought about offline mode (or the lack there of) and how considering your entire life is organised within it, what are the chances that notion either goes out of business (unlikely) or that its just slow and requires an internet connection to actually function? All the more so that this is built to be a second brain, to capture, organise and subsequently utilise in the future, but if retrieving information is so slow... These are things I've been considering the past few months and have slowly been transiting to Obsidian overtime, only downside its that its just not as intuitive as notion, but seriously offline mode is 💯
I've been using PPV for about 3 1/2 to 4 yrs now. Wow, it's been THAT long?? Like you, I've tweaked it a lil' here and there and it's exponentially better than just task --> project ---> done gtd para methods. It keeps the user honest. Also like you, I've looked at other platforms. Notion's great but wow it's glacially slow compared to anytype, tana, coda, etc w/ no offline. Also there's no way to connect keywords together like obsidian, amplenote, logseq, etc so it's REALLY easy to lose notion pages. I've found pages months and even years later that weren't in my line of sight. Tinkering can be a rabbit hole. I use notion daily but the more features, the more weight it takes on.
I love the look of this system. I bought the Complete Life OS system on the last version. I guess I was overwhelmed and ended up never using it. I know one factor was the lack of deep links with other apps on Mac within Notion. I really like how this looks and I’m willing to give it another try, If I can wrap my brain around it lol. How do you handle something like emails. One of the major things I use deep links for is emails and attaching them to projects or to-do list. It makes it a lot easier to get the info without having to copy the email into the system. What would be your work around for this or how would it work in the Life OS 2024?
Thanks my friend - yes it was experiences like yours that inspired the new developments in the template and I'm feeling super happy this one can deliver a smoother and more accessible template experience on a scale like this. Re emails - let's see how things develop this year - there are plans, but they also depend on how Notion approaches development their offering ... :)
Hi Simon, Quite late to the Notion scene (literally just starting out). Absolutely love the idea of personal Life OS but I wondering how feasible it is to use as a workspace for my (non-tech) startup. Would love to hear your thoughts on running a small team with Life OS - or if you feel that I would need to add significantly.
This looks like it’s been very well thought through. Will you be doing a paid for build course at any point - I just know I’d want to tweak this to work better for me
thanks so much - yes - once we get out of the weeds of the basic support guides and stuff around this we will certainly look at some paid or free cohort course stuff around the build side to help people adapt it :)
Hello Simon, First of all Congrats on the new system. I watched the video and decided to purchase hoping i won't get overwelmed while using it but download link doesn't work . returns a blank page! any idea of how to resolve it ? i have access to notion without a problem
haha - you are telling me! I've worked through two weekends and fought a lot of workspace issues - but Hazzar - it's done, i think it's good, and I'm happy to say i think this one will last a while with small updates that can be guided over time for users - awesome. thanks for the love!
Well, this is THE best video you have ever produced. The timing is excellent, and the shots are so right. I would buy everything if I hadn't already. I am so excited to upgrade now! I am relaunching my business, Notion + Change, so the timing is exceptional. Enjoy every moment of the Notion Conference, @MariePoulin thought I was coming, so if you bump into her, please give her an enormous hug from me. (just not well enough yet to have that much fun in USA.)Massive, congratulations! You are amazing!!!!
Ah love it Gilly - thank you again for your wonderful support - I think this is going to be an exciting ride and great to have you in the community from so early right!? :)
these OS/second brains are a complete waste of time for me. It takes 5x more time each day to document and store everything than to complete each specific task irl which accounts to actual progress. These second brains are only cool to look at and show others, irl these are peak counter productive for most people. A diary and a pen is still and will continue to be the best form of planner known to mankind.
As someone who is swimming in sticky notes, tries different to-do list apps that always have limitations or are hard to stick with bc that’s the ONLY thing they do, and struggling with brain fog and remembering things, having a place where I can brain dump and easily sort later is so fantastic. There are also many people like me, have ADD/ADHD or have some mental conditions which aren’t necessarily a disability but are still disabling and I see such value in this. If there’s something you need to just get done, sure keeping a “DO IMMEDIATELY” sticky note will do just fine. But as a small biz owner, having a place where I can create and store systems, checklists, and knowledge docs to share with clients, I will be able to knock out onboarding of new clients or starting a new project with very little mental space needing to be applied-less forgetting part of an onboarding call and brining it up later, and having a quick reference to bring up during a project or a reminder about policies when client’s forget. It’s also a fantastic way to keep/track info like doctors visits , medications taken over time, why you started/stopped a certain treatment, etc
Building it is a waste of time (and I couldnt do it when I tried), which why I went for the template. It’s going to take some time and dedication to get used to it and optimize the way I use it, but thats true for anything
Hello there Simon, my name is Johnny and I'm a freelance logo designer, would you love to have a dedicated and original logo for your RUclips channel that hav better creation in an abstract way to have a more memorable branding to attract new potential audience to click in and hopefully subscribe too and know where to find your hardworks and also can be a fun image for merchs print as well? I also attached some of my previous works as references to some of my aesthetics for you to have a look vto your email already too! Let me know if you interested and I would love to design it for you! :-)

is it helping?
Congrats Simon 🎉 I know how hard you worked on this. Been using this OS system since April 2023 and love it! Well done.
Thanks a lot - that really does mean the world and i hope you enjoy the new version if you move across and thank you for the continued support and engagement! awesome :)
Simon the work you've done on the new Life OS is brilliant - you really have covered all bases. I'm loving it, and am transferring content from the previous version bit by bit. Wish I could just snap my fingers 🤣I appreciate all you do to help Notion novices like me. 🙏🏻
I wish you would do a video on how to migrate your from your old Notion life to the new one. That would be so helpful!
Will work on a safe and accessible version that doesn’t risk messing people’s data up! It’s tricky!

I stopped by your channel just last night to see if it was released and what what do you know? It’s released the next day. 😂 Very excited for it.

@@BetterCreatingIm buying the course!!!
@@BetterCreating I would join such a cohort
Hello Simon, First of all Congrats on the new system. I watched the video and decided to purchase hoping i won't get overwelmed while using it but download link doesn't work . returns a blank page! any idea of how to resolve it ? i have access to notion without a problem
Thank you, for your great work!
My pleasure! It's been an epic few 7-day weeks! nearly there! Thanks pal - this has to be the definitive one thou right?! :)
Hello Simon, the last few days Notion made new things as additional so in this including your template? please clarify?
Hi, if we used this at work do you need a licence per person, we have a small team of 5
Hi there - yes - please contact us at notion@bettercreating.com and we can help you with a custom pricing for more than one user! many thanks - Simon
Finally ❤😂
haha - you are telling me! I've worked through two weekends and fought a lot of workspace issues - but Hazzar - it's done, i think it's good, and I'm happy to say i think this one will last a while with small updates that can be guided over time for users - awesome. thanks for the love!
There is no free version we can use with our iPhones?
I offer a free task and project manager that is a similar system to the task and projects section. :)
