How was your year?

Honest criticism is best used to improve yourself, not to tear yourself down.

In addition, it can be helpful to celebrate your year-end highlight reel, positive things that happened, like reaching goals or notable progress, that can be mimicked or built upon in the new year.

With that in mind, we wanted to make this week’s question reflective.

How was your year? Would you share some of the good things that happened? Do you have plans for improvement in 2023?

We could all benefit from hearing some uplifting and motivating stories.
