The notion is a great organizational tool to keep track of everything like creating lists and it basically lets you have your life together. The notion is great indeed but it's also very overwhelming because it gives you the option to create infinite templates or you have to go through their library and import other templates into your own workspace. If you're still thinking about getting started with the notion this is a great time to spend some time seeing how it works. 

I think it's much better to start by downloading other people's templates than trying to figure out how to create your own and if you're already using notion and you know how it works importing other people's templates is also, a great idea to complete your own workspace and try out new things also if you need a specific template and someone has already created it why not save some time and just use it you will not be called lazy for it. 

Most people know how the notion is a great place to keep a basic to-do list keep track of university assignments or build knowledge databases. But really there are other uses for the notion that maybe you haven't thought of before. Today I bring you 20 notion templates that you may want to import into your own workspace.

I've divided them into 

- Personal Productivity
- Home 
- Learning and 
- Business/work

These templates are definitely not mandatory templates to use all the time some of these may be helpful others may not it really depends on what you have to plan
and how you like to plan finally let me just add that all the templates featured
in this article are offered for free by their creators.

Without further ado, let us see the 20 notion templates that you are waiting for!
