In this short motivational video, the speaker introduces the “Yes, And Challenge” for the final week of 2020 (December 28 – January 1). The challenge is framed as a reflective exercise to mine the “gold” of the year by identifying the most difficult experiences of 2020, listing them in order of impact, and then expressing gratitude for each—finding the blessing or medicine in the poison of adversity. The speaker outlines a simple daily structure: on Monday (the first day of the challenge) participants write about the fourth‑most challenging event and what they are grateful for, Tuesday focuses on the third‑most challenging event, Wednesday on the second, Thursday on the most challenging, and Friday (New Year’s Day) marks the transition into 2021. Viewers are invited to share their reflections in the comments or keep them private, with the overall aim of ending the year with a mindset of appreciation and intentional growth.
