What’s the last month of the year like for you? Even setting aside all the holiday craziness and extra “to-do’s” on the list, December often feels like a rush to get stuff done before the end of the year. Sadly, I suspect I’m not alone in the annual tradition of “beating myself up for all the things I didn’t do this year.”

I’m embarrassed to say that I was a bit stumped.
