I used to live in Los Angeles.
That’s a city where you have to drive everywhere.
Including the gym.
But some days I felt lazy and I didn’t drive to the gym.
Then I moved to Prague.
Specifically, I moved to a neighborhood called Zizkov.
My apartment was at the bottom of the hill.
The tram stop was at the top of the hill.
And every day, some times several times a day, I climbed that hill with my bag full of boring, useless grammar books.
It didn’t matter if I felt lazy or not.
If I wanted to keep my job, I was climbing that hill.
Your Environment Doesn’t Care If You’re Lazy
This is the easy way — the lazy way — to improve your English.
Change your environment.
Here’s a simple way to do that.
Make your online world 100% English.
Tell Google settings you speak English.
Tell Facebook you speak English.
Tell YouTube you speak English.
Get a VPN and tell it you live in New York and now your ads will also be in English.
Then sit back, be lazy, and improve your English.
This is good.
Fank you MR Vig
Hi! It is interesting thinking and solution. It will be try. Thanks.
Los Angeles .. fine place .. with hills too …
I’ve already done some of it, the application menu at work, the menu on the phone. It’s work.
That is great idea. I like to be lazy.
It’s work !! Sometime I´m lost, but it will be more easy after some month, or year ? 🙂
Wow, what a great idea! I could have come up with this myself, but for a lazy student, the effect is greater if the teacher gives this advice. Thanks Ryan🙂
You’re welcome!
GPS in my car speaks English.
In other words….let’s pretend that we reside in english environment😊😊😊
Last Monday I woke up early and immediately started learning English with my flashcards. I look at the schedule for Monday and I miss a week after a week off. Convinced that I am working in the afternoon, I start cooking lunch when the director calls to ask: “Where are you?” Of course, I was 15 minutes late for my job, but after her complaint I felt like the biggest criminal. Maby it’s time to change my environment?
Kind regards
Excellent, your ideas are limitless and very useful…
Good advise! For the begining it could be a little difficult , but worth the effort. I already set up my phone and Google sent me English contents.
Thank You! Excellent idea!
Google, Facebook, and YouTube are somehow ”smart” and predict my need for more English. So, I receive a lot of ads and information in English.
Very clever suggestion! I’m already watching TV always in English ( excluding Italian News).
Now I’m going to switch all my Devices to English language! Thank you
Thank you for such amazing opportunity.
Never thought that way. Thank you Mr. VIG
Yes, its really true, for learning something we must drown ourselves in it and attack to it
