Notion Second-Brain Templates
Build one command centre from six core databases, starting with structure and letting the design follow.
A dashboard should answer what to do today and where things live. Planning one, and explaining it to others, takes time you may not have. This deck lays out the components and the build order so you can adapt them quickly.

This is a ready-to-use, editable PowerPoint deck of 51 slides on designing a second brain dashboard in Notion. It covers PARA, GTD, the main and supporting dashboards, a six-step build and template spotlights. It suits solopreneurs, students and template buyers who want one clear home page for their work.
The first chapter sets the principles: PARA for organising, the GTD cycle of capture, clarify, organise, reflect and engage, and the habit of quick capture. Chapter 2 then shows the dashboards themselves: a Main Dashboard with Today's Focus, Project Overview, Inbox Snapshot and Goal Progress; a PARA dashboard; a GTD dashboard with Inbox, Next Actions, Calendar and Waiting For; and a notes hub.
Chapter 3 adds optional modules for goal tracking, a habit tracker, a finance section for solopreneurs, a reading list and contact management. Chapter 4 is the build: define core needs, choose a framework, set up Projects, Areas, Resources, Tasks, Notes and Inbox, design the dashboards, populate and process, then refine with a monthly system audit.
Later slides spotlight three template styles, show formulas, rollups and a database map, and close with takeaways written separately for template buyers, solopreneurs and students.

Walk through chapter 4 step by step and have attendees build their first Main Dashboard before the session ends.
Use the dashboard and spotlight slides to explain what a ready-made template contains and what to change first.
Work from the six-step flow on slide 26 and keep the monthly audit slide as your reminder.
Download the deck instantly, open it in PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides, and edit the slides to describe your own dashboard. Slide 41 holds the implementation checklist.

Yes. It is a standard .pptx file with editable text, shapes and tables, so you can change wording, colours and order and add your own examples. It opens in PowerPoint and Keynote, and you can upload it to Google Drive to open in Google Slides. Layouts can shift slightly if a font is missing, so check the slides before presenting. These are independent guides about building such systems, not official Notion material and not affiliated with Notion.

No. It describes dashboard designs and spotlights template styles, but you build or duplicate templates in Notion yourself. The deck is a guide, not a template file.
The deck suggests most people begin with PARA and add GTD as the system matures, keeping the first version simple and iterating.
