It’s excessive, isn’t it? All those apps we use daily have way too many features, with new ones being added all the time. Going back to the basics isn’t just good for your stress levels; it can also make you more productive.

Take me, for example. I use Notion and have spent way too much time just setting up my system within the app, choosing the correct icons, and making sure the colors match across my pages. Because I spent so much time tweaking it, I feel like I have to put it to use, so I try to write down as much as humanly possible to achieve that feeling of being on top of things that matter. To be productive. Efficient. But honestly, it’s starting to backfire. Not just with Notion, but with my other fancy — and expensive — apps as well.
