Let's make the mundane more magical as summer ends!
|
Hi Reader Summer may be fading away and lots of us think about returning to offices, routines and predictability. However, I want to keep some of the magic of summer and take some spontaneous sunshine into September with me! I think there are always ways to find bubbles of joy and ways to make the mundane a little bit more magical ✨ In language learning it may involve finding a new podcast for your commute, or using some bright coloured highlighters to add interest to those endless grammar notes. The more you enjoy learning, the easier it will be to create new habits that you look forward to instead of dread each day! Tip of the monthReady for some magical idioms, Reader? Sprinkle these into your next English conversation: Magic bullet : A simple solution to a complex problem. Examples: "There is no magic bullet for losing weight." and "The new policy is not a magic bullet for the economy." Smoke and mirrors: Something that is intended to confuse or deceive. Examples: "The company's promises were all smoke and mirrors." and "Politicians often use smoke and mirrors to distract from real issues." Crystal ball: A way of predicting the future. Examples: "I don't have a crystal ball, so I can't tell you what will happen." and "You'd need a crystal ball to know how the market will look next year."

Hi Reader, You may have realised by now that I love writing (newsletters, poems, essays, stories, journaling). So as my 30th birthday rolled around, I became even more reflective than usual and wrote about 3 important lessons I've learnt so far. I hope they help you too! 1.You have to do it with fear.Fear is normal. It is human. And it rarely disappears. Learn the language. Travel the world. Start the business. Fall in love. I have done all of these things with fear. Not fearless, but with...

Hi Reader, My baby is growing up fast (don't panic Mum, not a real human but my business), and turned 2 this month!! It feels like I've been managing MLC forever and also just a few moments, time has a strange way of creeping up on us. From on outside perspective, people often focus on what I’ve gained from living abroad, learning languages, building my own business, and creating a life where I can work from almost anywhere. The freedom. The travel. The flexibility. And while those things are...
