Research has found that people find it easier to stick to their plans (such as to exercise more, lose weight or learn a language) by focusing on the long term benefits.
For example, if you want to exercise more but feel lazy about getting out of bed in the morning, you should picture the wonderful, fit person you will become in a few more months if you spend just a short time each day walking. Think about how great you will feel!
You can use the same technique for language learning. If you lose motivation or are tempted to skip your English Time one day, remind yourself of all the benefits that will come from communicating easily and skillfully in English. Picture yourself feeling happy and proud at an important interview or date!
