✨Join us for a workshop about the 12-week year in Notion!✨
The 12-week year is a system introduced in the book “The 12-Week Year” by Brian P. Moran and Michael Lennington. It is a concept where you imagine that each month is one week and you try and progress your goals in 12-week cycles. This is a great concept to try in Notion, and we’d love to guide you through it!
