In this ESL lesson plan for adults and teens, students watch a short animated story about a man named Tom who struggles sticking with his new, healthy habits and resolutions. It includes discussion questions and conversation activities about resolutions, goals, habits, and commitments. Students also learn some important vocabulary terms and phrases from the video. The post-viewing section includes a follow up discussion, vocabulary context usage, and activities/discussion on commitment. There are additional resolutions tasks, an optional bonus activity on analogies, and a quiz & review section included.

Mitch Manly talks about the habit, that will truly change your life. There are so many videos on YouTube that talk about habits, and what the habits of successful people are, or the 12 habits you need for life. I think all these videos are great, but everyone seems to forget about the most important habit, that allows you to even pursue these other habits.
