Thinking About What We Can Do To Prepare For Change

Look over your responses to the questions on page 2. Determine if any of your answers might keep you from learning English. For example, look at number 1. If for question number one you said that you are "very" satisfied with your life as it is now, you may not be willing to make the sacrifices required to learn a new language. However, only you can answer that question truthfully.

Look over all twelve questions. Determine if any of your answers might keep you from learning English. If so, write down the reason for your answer. Then, consider what changes you could make in your attitude or in your actions that would permit you to answer differently.
