Making decisions is part of daily life. What should I have for breakfast? What career path should I take? What English program is going to help me become fluent faster? Sometimes we struggle with making the "right" decision, especially when there are big life choices to be considered. Fortunately, making the right decisions is a skill that can be developed. As discussed in the book "Decisive", by Dan and Chip Heath, various factors contribute to making bad decisions. Through deep research, the authors have found factors that contribute to making poor choices, but if we recognize these factors and learn how to avoid them when making decisions we can feel more confident about the decisions we make. Learn how to be a better decision maker on this episode of the Feel Good English podcast.

If you're like me, it can seem like you have way too many things that you either want to do or "have" to do. And with your English learning, you might not be sure about what area to focus on, what vocab to learn, what skill to develop, etc... I find myself constantly feeling like I am behind on the things I am trying to accomplish. It's just one thing after the other. Should I do this or that? What will bring me the biggest result? Which direction should I follow? Am I wasting my time on this? It can be frustrating! The book The One Thing, by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan, goes deep into the topic of finding the most important thing to focus on in all aspects of life. It could be a specific project you're working on, a new skill, or a life dream. Through looking at all situations from a macro and micro level, meaning what's the best next-step now right now and for the long term, and asking yourself something called the "focus question", the book offers great insight into how to achieve more success in life and business. This book really is a must-read! Get the free transcript at http://www.feelgoodenglish.com/one-thing/
Want to know how to succeed? According to this Ted speaker, sleeping more can help. In this small talk with a "big idea", Ariana Huffington shares what she thinks can help you be more effective and creative in life and business. I recorded this episode a bit different than the other Ted Talk Tuesday episodes. In this one I will go through the short talk (3-minutes) and explain the vocab and expressions she uses while I am discussing the talk itself. Why am I doing it like this? You could consider this a shorter, more "English focused" lesson. But hopefully not boring! I hate boring English lessons like I hate waiting in lines (I guess because it's boring too). So the idea is for you to learn some new words and expressions while also getting some quick tips on how to live a better life, and develop a better English.
