I look forward to writing this post every year, just as I have the past 15 times. So much so, in-fact, that I keep a “favorites” note, which I clear on January 1st, so I don’t fall victim to recency bias.
There year, though, I’m doing two things differently.
Let’s dive in!
Now that we’ve been visited by the 3 ghosts, it’s time to have our, “Ebenezer Scrooge is a changed man,” moment. You didn’t think I’d end 24 days of podcast articles on doom and gloom, did you? There’s a lot to be Optimistic About We got a lot of great advice this December — not…

The Ghost of Christmas Future, or Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, exists in A Christmas Carol to serve as a grim warning of what will happen to Scrooge if he doesn’t change his ways. But as Scrooge points out, the spirits wouldn’t be visiting him if he were, “…past all hope!” Last year, I…
