That looks almost identical to the one from 2022. The only obvious differences that I see (besides "pre-proofs" watermarked all over it) are in the Geologic Time Scale table and the credits on the lower left. The map itself looks

Get in the habit of checking if you are dreaming. Try doing something that you know can't happen but imagine it will work while trying it. e.g. Jump while imagining that you will start floating instead of landing back on the ground
