I'm going to talk about a process vs
1
4430
3530
00:07
an event and why this is relevant

to learning English. So, keep watching!

Think of a famous football player, for example
4
26109
4101
00:30
Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo
5
30210
3130
00:33
When we think about these football players, it's very easy to see their skills
6
33340
5160
00:38
And how they have benefited
7
38500
3280
00:41
from the skills, like the beautiful wives
8
41780
3120
00:44
the big cars, all the money, and the fame
9
44900
3360
00:48
but what we don't see is how they got there
10
48260
3740
00:52
we don't see what they did and what they continue to do
11
52000
4470
00:56
on a daily basis to have that really
12
56470
3450
00:59
high-level of skill. This is the same
13
59920
3519
01:03
for English learning too - when you see somebody
14
63439
3430
01:06
who is a non-native speaker speak fluently
15
66869
3581
01:10
understand what they hear and have lots of confidence when they speak
16
70450
4400
01:14
that's what we see, but again we don't see
17
74850
3570
01:18
what they did and what they continue to do
18
78420
3239
01:21
on a daily basis to have that high-level
19
81659
3591
01:25
this is important because having a high level of English
20
85250
4159
01:29
doesn't just happen overnight - it is not
21
89409
3380
01:32
just an event - instead it is the result
22
92789
4250
01:37
of a process; the result of doing the right things
23
97039
3951
01:40
on a daily basis - and when you focus
24
100990
3290
01:44
on this process and make the changes you need to make
25
104280
3719
01:47
to create the environment and habits of doing the right things
26
107999
4440
01:52
this is when you will start making real progress
27
112439
3850
01:56
that is why I say it's all about the journey - it's all about the journey
28
116289
4690
02:00
to fluency and having as much fun as possible
29
120979
3840
02:04
during this journey. So, make the changes you need to make
30
124819
4140
02:08
to reach a high level; get into the routine of learning English
31
128959
3941
