Notion Template
For students who know exactly what's due and still can't start.
Every task in First Step carries a First step field. The Next move column shows that, instead of the task name.
The actual dashboard — Right now, Brain dump, and everything still open, on one screen.
"Started" is tracked as its own stage, one click from the dashboard. Credit for crossing the starting line, not just for finishing.
Nothing in here ever turns red. Past-due work reads "Still open" — a late assignment doesn't need a reminder that you're behind, it needs a next step.
Three-second capture, zero required fields. Type the name into Brain dump and move on — sort it later, one click.
A page for every course, and ten views built for different moods — not just one clever field.
Pick one thing, Got 15 minutes, Pair light + heavy, Pipeline, and six more — sliced by mood, not just by date.
No streaks. No daily checkboxes. Nothing that punishes a gap.
No grade calculator — it's a starting tool, not a GPA spreadsheet, and every field like that is one more thing you'd have to keep updated.
No widgets tied to some third party's account that could vanish and break your whole dashboard for no reason.
No automations to configure. Everything in here runs off fields you were already filling in.
