Keep track of your Progress.
Once you decide to start thinking in English and stop translating in your head, write down every day what you do.
A simple example: “Today, I listened to a fascinating podcast about The Civil War.”
Recap your day in English
Before going to bed, think about everything you did (and didn’t do) in English. Remember, you want to shift your mindset from “translation-mode” to “English-thinking mode.”
