Belief + Behaviour = Change

I often post things to encourage English learners. “You can do it,” “It is possible,” etc.

I believe it when I tell you these things, and I hope you believe them too. Research shows that belief—preferably shared with a community (even if it’s just one other person!)—can help people to make positive changes in their lives.

However, belief without action only makes you feel good for a period of time, but it doesn’t get results.

Changing your habits and behaviours does that.

So, ask yourself: Are my current habits serving my goals? Can I replace one of my bad daily or weekly habits with a positive one instead?

This is an English learning page, so I assume that you have followed it because one of your goals is to improve your English skills. (You’re already part of a community! Good start!)

Are you satisfied with the amount of time and effort you dedicate to learning English? If not, can you make changes in your daily life to help you practice and improve in a way you will be happy with?

I will be revisiting and writing a companion article to the one below in the future, as my understanding of habits has evolved, but for now, maybe it’s a good starting point for you, or maybe this post has come at the right time to remind you of something you know but might have temporarily pushed aside in your mind.

You CAN do it. So, believe it, assess your situation, and make the necessary changes to help yourself build the habits and behaviours that will serve your longterm goals.

Start today.

Have a good week.

Have you heard words like ‘wanna’ and ‘gonna’ before? 💬
Reductions are common in colloquial, informal speech – particularly in American English.
Knowing them might help you understand native speakers better.
They are often heard in real-life spoken English, on television or in song.
But you don’t have to use them yourself to be understood.
It’s also important to remember not to use them in any formal writing or in an exam.

WE NEED TO BE MORE

WE NEED YOU

 

 

"For those of you who struggle in relationships with others and yourself, the magic ingredient is connecting to your inner child and reparenting them. Give them all the things they need. The validation. The love. The comfort. Learn to emotionally regulate so you can teach them how to self-soothe. Be the parent you longed for. Be honest with yourself about the behavior that keeps you stuck and causes you pain. Then invest your energy in yourself to slowly change these behaviors and heal the wounds beneath them. Just sit there and listen to your feelings and your pain. Give yourself what you need. Validate yourself." ~ Manpreet Johal
