My warmest welcome to you. You are listening to episode 3 of the 111 Tips for Learning a Language. From Episode 1, we identified our most comfortable way of learning. From Episode 2, we zoomed in on mastering one aspect of the language. In this episode, I am going to ask you to determine:-
(1)	When you would like to learn; and 
(2)	Where you would like to learn; and lastly
(3)	How much time you would like to spend learning. 

Once you have clear answers about the when, where and how much time you have, you should be able to set a regular routine for learning. As we know, a routine is repetitive, therefore we would gradually become accustomed to sticking to it. It is just like brushing our teeth every morning. The goal is to make our learning schedule a habit. Once it becomes a habit, you would not think twice about straying away from it.  

It is advisable though to set a short, easy routine initially. This is so that you would not find it too difficult to keep up with. When you first start following your schedule the first few times, you are actually training yourself to become more disciplined. With discipline comes habit.  
Research has shown that humans are creatures of habit. Once your schedule is set, you are ready to go! When learning is a habit, you are consistently making progress in learning the language of your choice. Our podcast has now come to an end. I wish you Inspired Learning and till our next episode.
