Building along? At 09:48 the formula should be ‘days’ not ‘Days’ if you get stuck here! Want to start building the rest of my task system? watch this next: czcams.com/video/tpdD6pCHsEU/video.html 😊
I hope no one else got stuck at this but at 9:48, it's supposed to be "days" in small letters not "Days" because I just wasted 15+ mins screaming at my screen and trying to figure out why is the formula not working properly. Still a great tutorial non the less. Thanks! 😁 Quick question, why is priority a checkbox?
Yeah, that’s mentioned elsewhere in these comments I think. Sorry to hear you got stuck! Priority is a check box to quickly add it to the priority dashboard view via a filter. But would work in other perhaps simpler ways. I also use a daily priority tag system now ✌️👍
@@BetterCreating No problem. Okay that's how I thought it works at first but it still didn't make sense to me so I turned it into tags and just sorted it out instead of filtering. Thanks for the reply!
well...I did get stuck for a lot longer than 15minutes in utter frustration...and I am kicking myself for not looking into the comments earlier!! thanks tho!! I am grateful there was a simple solution!
I figured out a way that I prefer. You set a "last completed date" for the recurring task, and set daily/weekly etc. Then in another column ("days left") you calculate the number of days until the task should be completed again. So a weekly task that was last completed on august 20 should be completed the next time on august 27. And in your recurring task lists you filter by tasks by "days left". When a task is completed you just set the "last completed date" to the current date.
Hey, I really like your videos. For this one I think there's a slightly more elegant (and more flexible) solution. I have a frequency (number) and a unit property (select: years, months, weeks, days) and my formula for next due is: dateAdd(prop("due"), prop("frequency"), prop("unit")) This way I can repeat tasks in whatever frequency I like. Without having to hard code the frequencies into my formula.
Thanks for sharing - nice solution - I will have a play with this approach. I've also been thinking about playing with creating templates for regular tasks so they can be quickly populated into a calendar view... we will see. or just wait for Notion to add a calendar function that solve it for us! Glad you are enjoying the vids. :)
I contacted them about 2 months ago about some feature request. They told me they are a small team, and they give priority now for performance improvements, offline access, and search. So yes, we need more wonderful features, but if they do these three things very well, Notion will be ready for more powerful features.
Workaround for the always 30 days bit! A bit cumbersome, but add another formula column that contains, " formatDate(now(), "MMMM, DD, YYYY") ", then in the Recur in Days, " if(prop("Recurring?") == "Monthly" and contains(prop("Date Now"), "November"), 30, " and so on, changing the 30 to the number of days in each corresponding month. In the new column all you really need is "MMMM" or just "M" if you change the Recur in Days formula accordingly, but the reference to the full current date might be useful for other formulas.
Notion as a tool just came to my knowledge a few days ago. I had been trying to manage the entire work environment in one place and being better productive for a long time . Thank You @better Creating for this wonderful Idea. looking forward to your new productivity videos. Love from India :)
Amazing system, just built mine with your guidance, the best one (at least for my lifestyle) so far, seems like something that would actually work for me. thank you so much
Glad it’s helpful. I think it’s a cool system: but actually using my other version more now: generating a month of tasks with a template button and populating the calendar. 👍 check out the weekly planner vid if interested.
I’ll check it out. I like this solution because I currently use Things and it will repopulate a list of recurring todo’s and you just need to delete the complete previous day. What I’ve seen so far with the button haas a lot of additional steps. But I will check yours out.
Excellent video! Your methods make life so much easier, and many thanks for your work! I just have a small question about the Inbox part, I don't know what filter you used?
Hi Better Creating, And I'm from Vietnam, thank you for your video, it helps me so much. I saw one in your task list is travel to VietNam So hope to see you one day traveling to my country - VietNam
@@BetterCreating really appreciating what you did, it is changing my life especially your habit series, I feel better and better every day though it is the smallest thing. Sorry for my terrible English :(( , I am still learning
I like the interface. I understand you really are overwriting the next due date and you still need to select the next date based on the frequency. You don’t have a log of done tasks and the next due date is manually calculated with a possible mistake… is there a way to insert a date based on the moment you activate a check box in order to calculate the next due date and log save?
Sadly, it doesn't accomplish the one thing we all need recurring tasks to do and that's populate the calendar. If I have every fourth Thursday blocked for sales review, when I'm looking at next month's calendar I need that Thursday blocked so I don't inadvertently double book. Otherwise, it's just a habit tracker.
Hi, there is no need to fix the number of days. Could just write " dateAdd(prop("date"), 1, "months")" this would automatically add 30 or 31 days depending on the month. Same for the year. Just put "years" instead of "months" to handle bissextile years.
Anyone having trouble with the next due formula, here it is to copy: dateAdd(prop("Due"), prop("Recur In Days"), "days") Thanks! Watch my new full system tour here: czcams.com/video/szTZdEQsiys/video.html ✌️👍
Hey Simon, do you have any solution to set a task recurring in spaced repetitions? For example - 1, 7, 16, 35. I study in med school and is essential for my revisions Also, thanks for the video! You're an elite
Thanks Aman! I don’t have a solution to that one off the top of my head. Tricky… if repeating every 7 days or every 16 days I’m sure there is a way. I think I’d be doing the same research as you on that one thou! Good luck!
Great video - One point of clarification - a newbie question - why when you checked done on a recurring task did it disappear forever? Was that to do with the filter?
Yes I suggest checking out Bardeen.ai for working out how to do automations for it. Or use my template approach I share here: it’s older as a video but still good: czcams.com/video/C0rNezh6_ZQ/video.html
Hi! After watching your video, I stayed with a doubt about this method for creating recurring tasks. After I add this formula to my database, the next day I still need to set the next date? Thank you for the video.
Hi Thalles, yes, this solution means you click the due date rather than a done check box and set it to match next due. I’m looking into ways to solve recurring tasks you want to populate your calendar at the moment. :) Thanks for watching.
This works excetp the montly tasks - well it works, it adds the 30 days but not every month has 30 days, for example feburary has either 28 or 29 so it doesn't work properly, is there something I can add to the formula to make it account for that? Also, since I'm asking, is there anything I can add to the formula to make it repeat only on sundays? Thank you!
I think I’ve worked out a better way to manage this process with a practice tracker - but it’s a little complicated: basically create a unit tag column (daily weekly etc) and a frequency column (number) and then make a formula that calculates them 1 x weekly (this is much better!). Time for a new vid I think!
So I have realized when you click "Done?" It doesn't actually clear it forever it's still in the database, under different views you can see it will always exist there. I think it's important to clarify that. Unless I am doing something wrong.
Yes, you need to make sure all views are filtered by done being not checked. I suggest sorting the main database by the done column so completed tasks are at the bottom. You could also create a page with a copy of the database called ‘completed tasks bin’ or something and filter that to only show completed tasks. That way you could then always bulk delete completed tasks if you want to remove them forever. But I haven’t found the need. Hope that helps.
Videos are a HUGE help for a new Notion user! Question - how are you getting your dashboard items on the left pushed all the way against the left of the screen? I cannot get the blocks to stop from being in the center of the screen when I am in full screen mode. My databases are justified left, but the other blocks are stuck in the center. Thanks!
i modified the formula a bit to fit my needs but it just says that i have too few commands for if?? here is my formula: if(prop("reccuring") == "weekly", 7, if(prop("reccuring") == "daily", 1, if(prop("reccuring") == "monthly", 30)))

One thing I don't get, is CZcams/ Personal life/ ... are projects? Could you explain what you consider projects, and what are complete sections, i.e you have a dedicated page for them?
Hi Scott, thanks for the message.well according to GTD and David Allen, a project is anything with more than one action needed to complete it. I think it depends on your life abs workflow how you choose to categorises them. I tend to group tasks to specific theatre / film projects, but then to things like wedding or bucket list (big things I want to do but don’t have a due date). I have projects like minimise or personal life in there for misc tasks that I want to process into the system from the inbox by adding them to a related project because that’s how my system works.

Hi, I am really confused. what is "next due"? why do we have to put it there? what I mean is that we have a due date and after that, the task is done right? so what is the next due for?
Next due is the reference you use for using this simple recurring task system: instead of clicking done that hides the task, you change the due date to match the current due date abs this is how you reset the task for its next instance.
Hi Simon, thank you for this video, I really appreciate it. Do you have a solution for if I want tasks to recur like every Monday, Wednesday and Friday?

@@BetterCreating Thanks for the reply. What I meant is: Putting a "deadline option" in the algorithm or code. Suppose, I have a task that I need to do till October 2, 2021 thrice a week. After that I need not to do that work. Therefore, we need a code that drive the task away after that specific last date, i.e. October 2. I hope it makes sense.
Ah I see. Yes, that’s tricky: it needs perhaps a deadline date column and then something along the lines of (perhaps) ‘ if deadline is < today, then done is checked’ etc etc. Interesting idea. Wonder if possible…
just repeat it over 365 days! or put it in a few times on the calendar? haha... Such a shame Notion still doesn't offer repeating calendar population! :)
@@BetterCreating Well it is true. Todoist actually accomplishes what these workarounds try to do. For what it is, todoist is fantastic, and I don't see why notion has to be an all in one solution at the expense of better alternatives for certain tasks. I understand the craving for an all in one, but until some solutions are more refined then it's just more hassle than it's worth.

Yeah still doesn't come close to how todoist offers these solutions!
No true, but the value is in the complete system integration. That said: will be looking at a todoist / Notion API workflow soon perhaps. Cheers.
@@BetterCreating Well it is true. Todoist actually accomplishes what these workarounds try to do. For what it is, todoist is fantastic, and I don't see why notion has to be an all in one solution at the expense of better alternatives for certain tasks. I understand the craving for an all in one, but until some solutions are more refined then it's just more hassle than it's worth.
Umm, but a leap year has 366 days.... 🤔
Darn. Very true. You’ll just have to have the 1st off. 😜

Hope it helps, All the best to you!
