The 'Quick-Fix' society and how to overcome this.. or use it to reach success.

The 'Quick-Fix' society and how to overcome this.. or use it to reach success.


Time is the most precious gift that we have.

Once it is spent, it is spent!

However, more and more, we?seem to live in a ‘quick-fix’ society. As soon as we want something, we need to own it, or we need to see the results - immediately!

Sometimes, all that is missing is a little patience. We often make the mistake in thinking it will take months or even years to reach some of our goals.

If we start to believe this, we rarely even start!

Sadly perhaps, these days, we want to make less of an effort and invest less time and money in the right method, that will help us reach our goals.?

Why is this happening?

We have more and more commitments, we need to be somewhere, BEFORE we even arrive and perhaps.. we have just become too spoilt!

Time is always against us! By Nicola Pollock

  • Thanks to online retailers like Amazon, things reach us the following day.?
  • We can access information instantly, thanks to many internet search engines.

  • We can find any TV show or film instantly that we want - gone are the days of relying on three or four television channels!?


There is no denying that this has certainly helped make our lives easier - instant messages and emails at work have sped up things no end!


However it means that we have become a very impatient society!?

Let’s look at this from another angle.?

There are benefits to not spending months and months on one specific course, for example. Motivation soon goes down hill with a 60-hour course!

Leading to very little actually being learned and a lot of your time and money going down the drain. (Not always, but I have seen this happen many times)

'Impatient' to 'I'm patient.' By Nicola Pollock

Motivation should be kept fresh.?

I have had experience teaching and coaching people for all lengths of time when it comes to English language courses.

Long courses may well be necessary if one has the time and money to spend.?

In reality, this is just not practical for most busy professionals.?

Finding a structure that works for the individual is the most effective way.?

A language coach will help to map out your journey.?

Exercises should not be hours of writing, when a more tailored approach can be implemented.

As an English language coach working with Medical Affairs professionals, as well as Pharma and Medical professionals, I understand how important the flexibility of learning is and how small but regular tasks should be incorporated into your day.?

So let’s have a look at some alternatives, to this long term method of learning and improving your confidence in English.

  • What is the MAIN goal?
  • Confidence.?
  • Why?
  • To participate in Global situations and one day also go for that promotion.
  • How do you get there in the most effective and efficient way?
  • Focus on three main key areas. (This I discuss in detail with clients and also on a 1:1 call if you would like to know more)
  • Incorporate 5-10 minutes a day working on specific areas to help you make English the tool that you need to have in your skill set.
  • One small task per week, mindset and confidence booster activities will excel your communication skills in the most effective and certain way, without losing motivation as you go.

Have you ever tried a coaching approach to help boost your English Communication Skills?

Accountability and guidance for your own personal needs.

English is a tool that should be a solid part of your skill set going forwards in Medical Affairs.?

How solid is your English?
