Our goal with this course to help you build and discover:

This will help us get to know you better, and work with you throughout the course. We would
love to hear from you.

Your Mission for Week One

Your mission for this first week of Fluent with Friends is simple but important: get oriented with
the materials, prepare your mindset and motivation, and take action to start building the learning
habits you’ll need to step up your level and succeed with this course.

Here are your first steps:

1. Read and Understand this Guide (let us know if you have any doubts)
2. Have a Quick Look at the Power Lesson
3. Read the RealLife Power Learning Guide: Specific Instruction on How to Use the Materials
4. Watch Friends Episode 01. Get at least a general idea of what happens in the first episode,
how the materials are organized, and how our method works.
5. Check out Memrise and get in the habit of spending 5-10 minutes per day studying the
vocabulary. Memrise App |FwF S01E01 on Memrise (Memrise Website)
6. Join the Fluency Circle Community on Facebook and/ or Telegram
o Facebook: Request access to the group here (please answer a few basic questions
to verify your participation in the course).
o Community: If you’d like to participate in our Global Telegram Text Chat Group with
other members of the course (it’s more like a chat room actually), please fill out this
form and we will get in touch within the next few days to add you (important: make
sure you read the “welcome guide” you get after filling out the form.

Important: Remember, you will get the second lesson 7 days after receiving the first. If you don’t
receive the lesson when you’re supposed to, please e-mail us and we’ll fix the problem.

Ninja Success Tip: Persistence, NOT Perfection

Perfection is NOT required, but Persistence IS: You don’t need to learn
100% of the information for each episode to be successful, but you do
need to persist and not give up. For the first week, we highly
recommend you relax into your process, get oriented with the
materials, the method, cultivate the right mindset, and watch and
enjoy this awesome TV series.

Remember that this is a weekly process/ cycle, and to be successful


you just need to get in the habit of putting one foot in front of the
other and improve your performance week by week. If you fall behind,
that’s okay, just restart the habit. And you may always return to a
previous lesson at any moment.

As the new lesson/ episode arrives each week, we recommend that you quickly finish the last
one, do your best to understand the storyline, and renew your commitment to making the next
week even better.

This is a marathon, not a sprint, but if your efforts are consistent, sincere, and intelligent, you will
start to see the results accumulate in the coming weeks and months.

Ninja Success Tip: Optimize Your Mindset

If you read the RealLife English blog or listen to our podcast, you’ve seen us promote mindset as
the golden key to not just learning English, but success in anything.
This is because it’s been scientifically demonstrated
over and over again that mindset is fundamental to
motivation, habits, and your entire learning process,
ultimately determining whether you succeed or fail.

To drive home this point (transmit the full force of the


idea), I’m going to borrow a quote from the book 7
Habits of Highly Effective People to describe the
impact that a simple change in mindset can cause:

“First, your growth will be evolutionary, but the net effect will be revolutionary.”

We highly recommend for all Fluent with Friends students


to at least check out our Mindset Optimization Workbook
we have available for FREE download here.

The guide will guide you through explanations, activities,


and resources that will help you activate your natural
curiosity, get and stay motivated, set goals, build and keep
strong habits, as well as plan and register your learning.

Even if you’re highly motivated and feel good about your


process, it’s important to note that building the right
mindset is a lifelong optimization process, exactly like
fluency in a language.

As we mentioned above, the goal of this guide is to provide you with general tips on how to be
massively successful with this course. Now that you have a strategic foundation for your success,
I would like to invite you to explore specific instructions on how to use the materials with the
RealLife Power Learning Method.
