Since 2020, I’ve been doing a self-appraisal at the end of every year. I write a post, tracking notable events across all aspects of my life. (2021, 2020)
This mode of journaling helps me record and reflect upon the experiences gained over the years, and keeps me accountable for continuous improvement.

Summary
Overall, 2022 has been a challenging year professionally and helped me gain a diverse set of experiences.
I completed the CFA program, which took up most of my time for the past 3 years. Fitness-wise, I hit several PRs and finally started off with basic MMA classes.
However, looking back, I realized that I didn’t publish content as frequently as I’d liked to. I have been less active on my blog for 2 years in a row. This is one area I have to improve going into 2023.
P.S The sole purpose of this post is to reflect upon the year gone by and not to boast of my achievements.
