Transcript:

Today, I want to talk about something that can change everything in your English journey:

You need a plan.

Hi! I’m Georgiana, and I’m back with a new episode. I’m here to help you speak English more easily and with confidence.

If you want to help me, SHARE the podcast with your friends and family. That would make me very happy. Thank you!

Great! Let’s start!

If you’re learning on your own, having a simple, clear plan is what separates success from frustration.

And the best part?

I already offer you a complete method—and in my premium courses, I give you a step-by-step guide to follow. So, you’re never lost. You know exactly what to do each day.
Let me explain how it works and how you can create your own daily habit—even starting today.

#1 Without a Plan, You’ll Drift

Most learners don’t fail because they’re lazy.
They fail because they don’t have a plan.

We all live busy lives. We try to survive one day at a time.

And without a clear structure, English becomes “something I’ll do later.”

But fluency doesn’t happen later—it happens through consistent, focused practice.
That’s why you need a simple plan.

When you know exactly what to do, you can focus—and make real progress.

#2: The Foundation of Your Plan

1 Hour of Listening + Speaking Daily

Here’s the habit I want you to build:

  • Listen to English for one hour every day
  • Practice speaking using my mini-stories

No grammar rules. No textbooks. Just natural learning.

This is the method I’ve developed—and it works.
And in my premium courses, I guide you step by step:

  • What to listen to
  • How to practice
  • When to speak
  • And how to repeat effectively
  •  

You don’t need to guess. You just follow the plan—and speak better every week.

Part 3: Build Your 20-Day Challenge

Let’s take it one step further.

I suggest creating a 20-day challenge to build momentum. It’s a simple structure:

✅ Listen 1 hour a day
✅ Practice 1 mini-story
✅ Track your progress
✅ Give yourself small rewards

Twenty days is enough to build a habit. Enough to feel real change.
It’s how you move from “I’m trying” to “I’m doing it.”

And if you follow my method—you’re not doing it alone. You’re following a proven system.

🎁 Part 4: Reward Yourself

Completion Feels Good!

Here’s something you might not know:
Your brain loves completing tasks.

When you check something off your list, you feel good. You feel capable. You want to keep going.
That’s why rewarding yourself is so important.

Give yourself small, fun prizes for staying on track:

  • A treat
  • A favorite show
  • A relaxing break
  • A little gift

These aren’t silly. They’re smart.
They make your brain associate English with success and satisfaction.

💬 Part 5: This Is a Lifetime Journey. Make It Enjoyable!

Fluency doesn’t come in a week. Or even a month.
It’s a lifetime journey.

So, you need a method that you can stick with—one that’s simple, enjoyable, and realistic.

And that’s what I offer in my podcast and especially in my premium courses.

They’re designed for independent learners like you—people who want structure without pressure.

And remember: You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be consistent.

And now
 let’s practice your speaking with a mini-story.

Mini-Story 📖
(Practice your speaking)

I’ll tell you a short story, then I’ll ask you questions.
After each question, you’ll answer out loud. Then I’ll confirm the correct answer. This helps you think in English and improve your speaking.
