Take advantage of early mornings. It is your own time which is free of demands. Like Ma Yun, a Chinese boy, who decided to use early mornings to improve his English. He woke each day before dawn and cycled 40 minutes to the main hotel in Hangzhou. He wasn’t paid and no one suggested it to him. This man created his own opportunities. Each day he would read English in front of the hotel. He would then give foreign visitors from the USA and Europe free tours around the lake. And as a result he learned English from them.
