Mindfulness Reflections

How would you complete the phrase, "It's never too late to..."? Here are some common ways of using this idiomatic expression in English: It's never too late to... start again get back on track learn rewrite your own story reinvent yourself start something new do the right thing reconnect with someone reconcile make new friends fall in love Is there anything you need or want to start again or get back on track with? Perhaps you've been intending to  dust off   (bring out or back into use again)  your English skills and get them  up to par   (to the expected level of quality)   for your current  undertakings   (tasks, projects, efforts, activities)  and  endeavours  (/ɪnˈdevə(r)z/  an attempt to achieve a goal ), but might not have found an adaptable and flexible method that suits your specific needs yet.

  The CET Book Club is starting soon! And what could be a better way of starting a Book Club in English -  for speakers of other languages at intermediate (B1) level or above -  than by reading the transformational gem,  The Art of Communicating , by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, live on zoom together? Very often, students and clients report that although they understand it very well, they feel stuck, anxious or unable to communicate in English satisfactorily, leading to a strong sense of loss of opportunity in their professional contexts. Part of the reason for this might be what I refer to as  undernourished English , that is, insufficient exposure to English through reading and listening.  The CET Book Club in English will address this directly by offering you the opportunity to develop your English language skills through the option of reading the corresponding chapter first, and then by following the transcript as you listen to one of us reading it out loud live during our weekly me
