Hey student, if you are studying alone and at
this moment, you feel like you're losing motivation
watch this video because tonight I'm going
to show you three tips that are gonna help you
get over that coming up.
Hey friends teacher Prix here to help you
talk to anyone anywhere anytime in English.
First of all, thank you so much for joining every week.
I have many different kinds of English lessons to help
you become a better and more confident English speaker.
So consider subscribing because there's always
something nice for you here. Anyway, my friends tonight.
We are going to talk about how to stay motivated
when you are studying English alone. And you
know, this is a very interesting subject because
every now and then I get this question from followers
from subscribers because guys believe it or not.
This is a very common thing. So if you Are going
through this if you are feeling demotivated
first thing take it easy because this is going
to happen to most people who is studying alone or not.
Okay people who study by having a private tutor
a private teacher may have this problem as well
and let me tell you another thing guys. We are
human beings. Everybody goes through this
whether it's about English or about work about
their lives we all have a moment when we
go through demotivation, so it's part of the game.
Sometimes we are working hard, but we don't
see the results or there are many other external factors.
Maybe there's something going on in your life
right now and because of that we tend to feel
a little tired. We lose energy and we lose focus.
So I think that if you study alone, it's even
more important for you to always remind yourself
that this is going to happen no matter how positive
You are no matter how discipline you are. No
matter how awesome you are. You will lose motivation
from time to time. That being said the first
tip that I want to share with you tonight is understand your why.
What understand my Why? What is that teacher?
I'll explain guys. I don't know for how long
you've been studying English, maybe two months.
Maybe three years maybe 10 years, but at some
point you're going to feel down you're going
to feel like nothing is working out. So in those
moments, it is important to remind yourself
of why you started studying. What is your goal?
What are you trying to achieve through English?
What is what is English going to bring to your life
These are important things to think about because
the moment when we lose motivation or when we
are feeling down we need to remember why we started
in the first place. There's probably a very
important reason for you that will help you
keep going and sometimes throughout our English
studies and life. We forget it's not that it's
not that we completely forget, but we don't think
about it anymore. So whenever I I lose my motivation
whenever I feel a little down a little low energy.
I start to think about why I got started in the
first place and this is going to help you keep
going reminding yourself of the dreams you
have of the goals you have of the life you want
that depends on English for it to happen. So
understanding your why and reminding yourself
during the tough days during tough times. When
you feel demotivated will help you stay on
track and will help you persist because the
truth is and I'm going to talk about this
in tip number two, you can't wait for motivation
to come and now tip number two. Don't wait for
motivation to come that Is exactly what
I just said. Now. This may sound a little bit counterintuitive.
Okay, like wow, I want to be motivated and you
tell me not to wait for motivation. Yes guys,
as I said at the beginning of this lesson, we're human.
Beings we don't always feel good. Sometimes
we do things we don't want to do because we remember
the benefits that doing that thing will bring us.
So when I say don't wait for motivation to come
it is counterintuitive, but at the end of the
day this is going to help you throughout the
tough times because if we constantly wait to
feel good to do things. Oh my goodness. We're
not going to be Very productive people because
I don't know about you but I don't feel good all the time.
I don't feel good every day. And when I say I don't
feel good every day. I'm not being a negative
person here. Okay, but there are some days when
we are not at our best. We don't feel that great.
So does that mean that on those days I'm gonna
drop it all and I'm gonna do anything else, you
know and forget about English? No, I will remind myself
Of my WHY and if on that day, I'm supposed to
study I will work on it. I will do my job. I will
do my part. So not waiting for motivation to come means
I'll do my part no matter what and this is a commitment
and there is a trick there. When you do something
in spite of feeling demotivated motivation
comes that's why I say it is counter-intuitive.
So on the days you're feeling extremely
demotivated if you just Let go and sit down do
nothing and completely ignore English. This
feeling will grow it’s not going to shrink it’s
gonna grow. But if you fight this feeling this
negative feeling of oh my God, I'm not motivated.
If you fight this and you follow simple tips simple
exercises to study English to work on your English
motivation will soon return and get back to
where it was. That's why I say it’s counterintuitive
because if you wait for motivation to come your
energy is not going to change your motivation
will return to you based on the actions you take
so if you do nothing, if you take no action whatsoever,
your demotivation will continue now to help
you with this tip tip. Number three is important
actually these three things they are linked
and they will really help you work on your motivation,
which is develop good study habits. Now you
remind yourself of why you're studying English
and you remember your dreams and your goals
and the things you want to do. Okay. Now you are
not going to wait for motivation to come because
you know actions cause reactions movement
feeling so by doing something motivation will
come but if you don't know what you have to do,
it can get quite difficult to feel motivated to do
something and I believe this is the key problem with
English Learners because they don't know what
exactly they need to do to feel motivated. They
don't take any action and because they don't
take any action they don't get out of the of this
Loop of feeling demotivated. So when you establish
good study habits strong study habits, it'll
get easier for you to keep going when your motivation is low.
okay. So when your motivation goes away
only strong study habits will make you stick
to the plan and keep going I study alone and I
don't always feel motivated. Sometimes. I
don't want to study or for certain periods of time.
I feel like nothing is working the way I wanted
it to work. But in those moments, I know that
by following my study plan my study routine.
It's easier because I don't need to think of what
I have to do. I already know the plan. I already
have the plan not feeling motivated will happen.
But if you don't have a strong study habit that
will support you on those days. It will be very
difficult for you to take action and remember
action is an important element. If you want
to feel motivated again people don't feel motivated
by doing nothing. Well here I'm talking about
improving their English. And studying English,
so just doing nothing will not help you get back
in the game. So if you want to be in the game or
at least get back in the game of feeling good
about yourself, a study routine will help you
stay on track. Even if you're not feeling it.
Okay, because this happens to me sometimes
I'm feeling a little bad or you know, I'm not
feeling good about myself and it happens. I
just follow the plan. I just follow a study
plan I get the job done. And and slowly I get back
to feeling motivated about studying because
I never stopped. I think the worst thing you
can do when you're feeling demotivate is
to completely stop what you're doing getting
back on track and feeling motivated again will
not happen if you sit around and do nothing so
following a good plan will help you stay on track
will help you find your motivation, okay? I
think these ideas I'm sharing with you tonight
are connected because of this you need to remind
yourself of why you're studying. Why is English
relevant in your life? What are you trying to
achieve? Number two, You need to go and do something
Nike just do it counterintuitive. Don't wait
for motivation to come because to feel motivated
you need action. However taking action when
you are alone can be tricky because usually
when we're feeling demotivated it's because
we're not following a good plan a good
study plan. So you see if I could summarize the
tips here take a look at your study plan because
that could be impacting your motivation levels
because at the end of the day what's going to
make you continue is knowing that you have a
plan to follow that even on the bad days when
you're not feeling good about yourself, you
know exactly what you have to do and by keeping
on moving by keep on taking action. Motivation
will soon return because everything Shall
Pass The Good the Bad and the Ugly, so that's
my tip for you guys tonight. If you enjoyed this
