You’ve returned to your office after the presentation. Or, you’ve just walked off the stage. Your thoughts are spiraling with everything that went poorly, and heat rises in your chest. You forgot an important point. You will probably get sidelined. You are a horrible speaker. You are embarrassed to show up tomorrow. 

A couple of years ago I heard that Gretchen Rubin was doing a “20 in 2020” challenge, a list of 20 goals for the year, but I wasn’t inspired. However, this past December I saw an Instagram post by Kathleen McKitty Harris that listed out her “22 for 2022.” I just turned 49 and felt different about the exercise this year.
