Ali Abdaal is a Youtuber who focuses on productivity and he’s an advocate of using Notion as a “second brain”. Regardless I've loved his templates so I decided to compile all of them in one place. Enjoy !

1. The Resonance Calendar

Anytime I come across anything at all that resonates with me, I drop it into the Resonance Calendar on Notion. This lets me keep track of articles I’ve read, YouTube videos I’ve watched, books and podcasts I’ve listened to, and anything else I come across in life.
