How to Write, Plan & Get Organized
This week, I will share and talk about a productivity & collaboration tool, a funny website, a free launch library, and a physical product.
1. Launch house
A couple of weeks back I stumbled upon a website named Launch House where the authors Michael, Brett, and Jacob have curated a list of useful how-to articles & videos. Resources will help you in launching your next online business or passive income stream. For example, they have a curated list of resources on starting a clothing brand, opening an Amazon seller central account, opening an Etsy shop, starting a podcast, starting a newsletter, etc.
If you are planning to launch something of your own then you should give this website a try. I am sure you will find something useful.
2. Notion
Notion is the best thing that has happened to me this year. I have been in search of the ultimate note-taking and collaboration tool for years and finally found Notion.
I have used a host of note-taking apps like Evernote, Microsoft OneNote, Google Keep, and many collaboration/project management platforms like Basecamp, Confluence, Trello, etc. However, none of them was a complete package, some offered great note-taking ability but did not have collaboration or project management features and vice versa.
Notion is not just a note-taking app but its a combination of note-taking, project management, collaboration, and much more. People are using it for different purposes, like managing house plants, tracking expenses, keeping track of personal projects, managing daily to-dos, and the list is endless. Even a lot of startups are using Notion to manage projects and as their internal portals.
I personally use Notion as my second brain where I dump all the useful information, ideas, and thoughts which I come across daily. This way I don't forget anything and can easily refer to it. Also, I and my wife have a kanban board where we create tasks and assign them to one another. For example, my wife assigned me a task this morning to look for new car insurance.
If you want to stay organized, have everything in one place, and want to build a second brain then I highly recommend Notion.
3. Transparent Sticky Notes
Who doesn’t like sticky notes? They are cheap, functional, and easy to use. People at The Worcestershire Stationery Company took the same old sticky notes and made it translucent. Its a combination of tracing paper and sticky notes with a wide range of applications. So if you want to annotate something on a textbook but don't want to ruin its sell back value, you can use these sticky notes.
4. Musk on the Mars
When will Elon Musk be on Mars? Yes, physical Elon Musk on physical Mars. If this question is keeping you awake at night and you want to predict when this will happen, then visit Musk on the Mars website. On the website, you can reserve any day in the future that you think Musk will land on Mars by paying $1 and if your prediction comes true then you win the entire pot.
