Colour the text in white to hide and then highlight it to reveal. Thanks for this very informative video 👍🏾

Out of the hundreds of videos I’ve watched pertaining to school work/study systems/Notion, yours have been by far the best. I find myself constantly gravitating towards your videos and hope to see more content from you in the future. You 100% deserved that Notion sponsor!
    So, coming from an incoming freshman who has NO IDEA how to navigate online school, I thank you with all my heart.
