Meet your goals in 2019 using gadgets and technology, much like our writers at TechRadar.
A new year may mean you’ve set yourself goals, but as you probably know it’s unlikely you’ll be keeping your resolutions by the end of January.
That’s normally the case with us at TechRadar, so that’s why we’ve put together a list of what some of our writers are intending to do in 2019 and how technology is going to help us achieve our aims.
We hope our efforts can go some way to inspire you this year to keep your resolutions, and even if they don’t we may be able to just encourage you to treat yourself to a new app download or gadget anyway.
I’m going to try and feel calmer with better sleep and less stress
My main goal for the next year is to, well, stop being so bloody chaotic. Make time for the things that matter and not feel like I’m flying from work to a social engagement to being caught in train delays to trying to get a few hours’ shuteye before the whole merry-go-round starts again.
So I’m going to be trying to simply sleep better and feel calmer as a main goal – and that will mean I’ll have to be more measured in my approach to life. To achieve this I’m going to use one of the Garmin range of watches – the Fenix 5 Plus, in this case – to both monitor sleep and stress levels, trying to make sure I grab more than 7 hours a night for as many days as possible in a row, and see how that reduces stress. Fingers crossed the zen just flows out of me…
Wake up with a game
I have trouble waking up when my alarm goes off. I don’t play enough games, but love gaming. This year, I want to make the problem the solution.
Having put my phone (alarm) on the other side of the bedroom, in another room, or setting alarm apps that require I solve mental arithmetic problems to shut them up – nope. Nothing. I just go back to sleep.
