Time to Complete Your 2020 Inventory

While this has been a year of great loss and great stress for many (myself included), I’m beginning to feel grateful for the lessons I’m able to cull for myself and those around me. In all these chaotic news headlines I’ve found clarity, the ability to see myself and my life clearer than ever. 

I’ve pulled together this 2020 Inventory because in a year this big, we gotta evaluate where you’ve landed as we head into a new year. I want to know: What have you learned about yourself? Self-discovery happens in all seasons, even the sucky ones. 

Take 10 minutes to read through the questions and answer them silently to yourself. Be honest, be fair and be as loving as you can to yourself as you make your way through.

Note: There is no pressure to answer this inventory “positively.” Your answers are your answers and your 2020 experience is yours alone to claim. This activity is for YOU to see where the dust has settled and to know where you’re hurting or healing as we stare down 2021.
