## Resource

The Power of Small Habits in Language Learning and Life | English Learning Podcast | Everyday English Academy Have you ever made a big study plan on a Sunday night, then dropped it by Thursday? Sarah and Mike sit down for a slow, easy English conversation about small habits: two words in a notebook, a thirty-second voice note in the car, one page of a paperback before bed.
