Whether we even know we\u2019re doing them, our financial habits can either hurt us or help us. Sure, they are small sometimes and you don\u2019t notice the impact right away. But over time they make all the difference. The tiny steps that you take consciously to level up in your financial life this year are the ones that matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now is our chance to think of good financial habits<\/a> that are as impactful, and exceptional as we know they will be. Below you will find steps to ensure you level up in your financial life this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look back<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not a sneak peek but do look back at 2021. Through your health, your finances and habits and figure out what worked and what didn\u2019t. Then look at what can be done differently or could have been improved on, left behind, developed, or even destroyed. A thorough assessment will help understand how to move forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Out with the old<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Look yourself in the mirror, right now if you have to and talk to yourself. Acknowledge that if a habit is not adding to you, it is subtracting from you. This is your moment to lay aside bad habits. Don\u2019t hold to anything that hasn\u2019t been a tangible addition to your life, health or bank account. Let it go. (Sing the song from ‘Frozen’)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tidy up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not sure if you\u2019ve heard but clean environments give space for the opportunity to think clearly, relax comfortably and plan. Keep your clothes, your bed, your fridge and your home clean. Greet the New Year fresh, clean and renewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clear your vision<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can map out your 2022 plans with a vision board. Dream big and put it all on your vision board. A vision board will help you organize your thoughts, dreams and desires while looking at it all visually in one place. When what you want is in front of your eyes it brings you a little closer to where you\u2019d like to be. Try it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Year resolutions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Resolutions don\u2019t have to have a bad rap, but it doesn\u2019t have to be this way. When you make financial resolutions<\/a>, you state your intentions to focus on goals. You may stray off track sometimes but that\u2019s ok. But resolutions can serve as a compass to bring you back to where you intend to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eat healthily<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether it\u2019s Fish, Black-Eyed peas or Collard Greens. Eat all three, together or separate, it\u2019s up to you. These are the New Year’s rules for peace and prosperity. It doesn\u2019t have to make sense to work, nevertheless, it\u2019s healthy\u2014just eat it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When is Chinese New Year 2022?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Talk about New Year festivities and the Chinese New Year comes to mind. The Chinese New Year and Lunar New Year 2022 will be celebrated on February 2. The Chinese New Year is the Year of the Tiger. Chinese households dedicate over two weeks to Chinese New Year cleaning, cooking, decorating and celebrating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are very specific and ritualistic in the way things are done, from the decor to the food. The Chinese traditionally celebrate the beginning of a new year of farm work and wish for a good harvest to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay financially prepped for Chinese New Year 2022<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year has a large price tag attached to it, especially when all the extra expenses are involved. To top it off you need to hand out all those Laisee (red envelopes filled with cash), with additional expenses like new clothes, traveling costs and, of course, the big banquets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a good idea to budget so you avoid additional spending over the Chinese New Year period. Set a ceiling for all your expenses and allocate your money wisely. Allow your expense budget plan to guide your spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
