Today we are going to take a look at the 2nd Brain setup of Easlo, who is specialized in Notion.

Brain Tour

Easlo hast set up his own 2nd Brain setup in Notion.

His main dashboard contains a "Quick Capture" section, an overview of these tasks (actionable tasks), links to his different dashboards and other pages.

Clicking on one of these buttons in the "Quick Capture" section opens a new entry page. These entries will appear on a separate "Inbox" page.

In addition, he also created links to all of his dashboards.

This includes:

• PARA Dashboard: provides a simple database field setup with Projects, Areas, Resources and Archive

• Project and Tasks: this is inspired by the GTD framework and includes things like daily highlights, upcoming tasks for today, tomorrow and the next 7 days, current projects, a calendar overview and next actions

• Knowledge Base: is designed for knowledge management, so something like his own Wikipedia in Notion

• Weekly Review: this is where he lists the things that need to be done for his weekly review
