Hello, my dear friends. How are you doing? I'm going live because I have an announcement to make. Happy 2026, everyone. It's January 8th. I hope you had a great start for the new year. And I'm going to wait a minute for everyone who is joining live to join. And if you're watching the replay, bear with me. I will get to the main point in just a minute. But if you are here live with me, just say hi in the comments. I'm going live right now on Facebook and on YouTube. So hello to all my people watching this right now. Okay, here I see some comments. So hello everyone and happy 2026. If you know me, you know that I'm very, very passionate and motivated at the beginning of each year and at the beginning of each year, I try to create something for my audience and for my students that will help them start the year on a positive, positive note, to start the year strong. And this is why I wanted to go live to officially invite you to my free Start Strong Challenge that is about to begin on Monday. So it's really coming up on Monday. I'm going to host a seven day challenge that is not going to be my typical challenge because I'm not going to teach pronunciation. And it's not necessarily about learning English in a specific level. Right. On a specific level, but it's really about the idea of learning English in the Start Strong Challenge. We are going to meet together to create momentum and the right infrastructure for you to succeed in 2026 in the start Strong Challenge that is starting on Monday. It's absolutely free and I'm already going to give you, if you're on Facebook, you can just comment the word challenge and if you are watching this on YouTube, you can click the link below this video or just go to hadar shemish.com forward/strong to sign up for the strong start strong challenge. Seven days. Seven full days of coaching, teaching with me, Q and A. So the first five days, every day, I'm going to go live on zoom with you guys. So I get to see you, you get to see me. We're going to do it live. I'm going to be teaching for the first 30 minutes and then 30 minutes of Q and A or hot seats. Hot seats is when someone raises their hand, I call their name and then for a few minutes, you get to ask me question. I coach you, I help you understand something about the topic of the day. So we do that for the first five days. In a minute, I'm going To share with you what it is that we're going to cover. And then the last two days, that's going to be on the weekend, we have full days of conversation groups where you can join a conversation group hosted by hosts inside of my community. So incredible people who are going to help you connect with other people. Great topics to discuss. So many, many, many opportunities for you to practice English, everything for free, to build community. Everything happens on my private app, so you don't need Facebook for it. You can, you can post videos, you can connect with people. And like I said, everything is free. So go to hadar shemish.com/strong. Or if you are on Facebook, just write the word challenge in the comments and you'll get an automated message to your private messages and you'll be able to sign up there. Now, why do I want you to join this challenge? Because this challenge is going to help you set goals for 2024. I'm going to show you how to set goals. We are going to talk about mindset, how to step into the right mindset. We are going to talk about habits, how to build habits so you can show up for your English practice consistently. Because this is what you need to improve. You have to practice, you have to do the work. And this is something that requires like a different shift in how you think, both in terms of mindset, but also planning and preparation and a lot of other great things. So all of that, if you want to build momentum, if you want to create the best circumstances for you to succeed, if you want, if you need some guidance in setting goals and you just want to experience this feeling of being in a community, being coached by me and, and not feeling like you're doing this on your own. This challenge is absolutely for you. Let me just check the comments to see if I have any, if there are any questions, let me know if you have any questions. And if not, I want to show you a little bit. So what's planned? Like I said, so we are starting on Monday. So you have three days and 15 hours to sign up for the start strong challenge. Register for free. Day one, we're going to cast a vision for 2026. So we're going to create your vision. Day two, we're going to talk about mindset and all the things that might get in your way from, from achieving that vision. See, we tackle it from all different angles. And then day three, we're going to create a plan. So we, we're going to take that vision and we're going to break it down, we're going to break it down into quarters, what, what you're going to achieve each quarter and all the different things that we're going to reverse engineer your goals so that once you have a goal, let's say you want to get a new job in, in English. So it's not like you can snap your fingers and get a new job. But what could happen, Let me make this smaller. What could happen is that you can create a plan on how to do it, but it, it's comprised of a lot of small steps that you might have to take and we are going to talk about it. I'm going to guide you on how to do it so you can achieve your goal. On day four, we're going to talk about habits, how to build the right habits and how to let go of bad habits when it comes to practicing your English, learning English, speaking English, thinking in English. So we're going to talk about all things habits on day four and on day five, I'm going to talk about how to take everything that you do in English and go beyond and use English to develop personally, professionally, say yes to opportunities, open up a lot of doors for yourself, make connections and so much more. So really the essence of why we learn English, which is to tap into our full potential, we're going to kind of like wrap it up and tie it with a bow on day five and then day six and seven, that's going to be Saturday and Sunday where we're going to implement everything. I'm going to give you some tasks to reflect on and you have full day of speaking practice. So a total of 14 different conversation groups during those two days that you can join depend. So no matter where you are in the world, you'll be able to join our conversation groups. And I forgot to tell you that we're going to have daily sprints. So sprints are my 10 minute drills that are designed to help you level up your pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary, but most importantly, to build the habit of doing something every single day just for 10 minutes. So free sprints. Sprints are going to be a part of this challenge as well. Again, like I said, it's completely free. So when you click on the link or when you write the word challenge in the comments, if you're on Facebook or click on the link below this video or go to hadar shemish.com forward/strong you will see this page. So all you need to do is just put your name, email, click I want in and you'll get an Email with all the information and you'll get an update as we start. Okay, so this is it. This is the page. This is what you're going to get and the plan. Let me know if you have any questions. Hello. Hello. The only questions. So that's amazing. How to start? Just go to this page, hadarjimage.com forward/strong and sign up here. Write your name and email here and you can join. And we already have people posting videos, posting their introductory posts. We have people connecting with each other, so it's really cool. So don't wait till the last minute because you can already benefit a lot from being a part of the community, from opening up, doing things differently. Because at the end of the day, my friends, learning a language is a lot more. More than just understanding a set of rules and having enough words to communicate. It really is about turning into a speaker of another language, a bilingual speaker. And with that comes so much. There is discipline, consistency, mindset, being able to be vulnerable, being able to being willing to make mistakes, putting in the work, doing things, even when it's boring and tiring and exhausting, and when, even when you feel stuck, you keep going. So all those things are required to own another language, to feel like yourself in another language. It's not an easy experience. We all know that. I'm now learning Spanish and I feel an English is my second language. I've done it in English. I'm doing it now in Spanish now. It's, it's. There is so much that goes into it, and this is why. It's not enough just to get the content. It's not enough just to get the theory. It's not enough just to get a list of words that you need to learn. It's really about stepping into that mindset and really making the change and creating an ideal plan for you so you can succeed. Because if you don't, then you're leaving it up to chance. You're leaving it up to the randomness of your life. And usually when you don't plan for it, when you don't remove obstacles, when you don't plan to achieve something, it's really hard to get it. So this is why, even though it's not about English, it's not about pronunciation. You know that my passion is pronunciation, but my passion is also really like helping people change into the people that they want to be, helping people be the best version of themselves using English. So this type of challenge is, is a way for me to help you do that. And I really hope you take advantage of it. Like I said, it's completely free. And most importantly, you're going to get to meet other people, build a community. It's going to be a lot of fun. So before I go, let me see if we have any questions how to get registered.
