Many of us may have taken on ambitious goals as New Year’s resolutions.  Now we’ve reached the time of year to see who is really staying true to their word.  Let’s look at a number of simple, yet effective steps we can take to improve our station in life for the short and long term.

Be Sure to Get a Full Night’s Sleep

One area that you probably are lacking in your daily schedule is sleep.  Be honest – how often do you truly get a good night’s sleep.  The average adult needs at least 7 hours a night.  Don’t trick yourself into thinking you can function at peak performance with any less.  Many of the world’s richest and most successful people make it a priority to get full night of sleep – shouldn’t you?

Staying Up on Technology Trends

A number of rising technologies, including cryptocurrency, NFTs, digital collectibles, AR, VR, holograms, and other social experiences, seem to be converging in a single kind of place – the world of the metaverse.  What exactly is the metaverse and why should we care?  It seems to be where the future of Web 3.0 is going.  You can even have pets and collectibles in the metaverse, after all.

Even though many of the cryptocurrency markets have come down a bit from their all-time highs, many have done quite well in a relatively short amount of time.  Now may be a good time to protect these assets by checking out the right kind of cryptocurrency insurance for your portfolio.

If you are staying abreast of current tech trends, no doubt you are aware of greater emphasis on online privacy.  Cookieless tracking is a growing trend to protect your security online.  Given the rapid advancement of GDPR and other such regulations, cookies may quickly become a thing of the past.

Real Estate, Inflation, and Construction

Chances are, you’ve noticed that inflation is the highest it’s been in 40 years.  You’re also likely feeling the pinch on everything from household items at the grocery store to your investments.  Over the years, investing in real estate has proven to be a good hedge against inflation and is something to consider for enhancing and rebalancing your portfolio.

Speaking of real estate, one particular construction element is a wondrously versatile type of material.  Asphalt is used from everything from roof shingles to roadways.  It also happens to be the most recycled material on the planet, making for a truly sustainable world for the better. Asphalt recycling is big business.

Bringing it all Together

With 2022 now in full swing, it’s time to look ahead from simple New Year’s commitments to a plan of action for the upcoming spring and the year ahead.  Choose wisely and set yourself up for a lifetime of success and accomplishment through simple, yet effective small steps and moments in order to get to your goals.
