Hadar Shemesh talks to English learners stuck at the same level and feeling the gap between where they are and where they want to be. She says the gap is a choice: let it frustrate you into paralysis, or use it to stop waiting and actually change something before the year runs out.
Have you ever said to yourself, by the end of 2024, English would no longer be an obstacle? And here we are at the beginning of 2025. And maybe it still is. Maybe you're still not where you want to be. When you recognize that gap, you have two choices. One is to let it bum you out and get you frustrated. Option two is to recognize that gap and use it as a source for motivation. And sometimes we need to feel it so much and it has to hurt us a little bit until we just really have to take action, until we realize that we can't procrastinate anymore. Don't wait for an opportunity to come to start improving your English. Don't sit around and wait, because by the time the opportunity comes and you're not ready, it's too late.
