What this episode covers
Tonight, we'll briefly reflect on your progress this year—specifically in areas like compassion, kindness, generosity, and reducing self-identification. I usually advise against checking your growth too often; spiritual development is better measured over decades than months or years. However, after a year of diligent practice, you might notice increased mindfulness, self-acceptance, and kindness compared to last year. Keep in mind that current moods can distort your perception of progress. The key is to reflect honestly: Did you consistently practice, attend retreats, and take actions supporting your growth? What was your progress with wisdom, generosity, spirituality, etc?
