These 3 Tips Helped Me Create a Language Learning Habit
Making time to study, and not just finding it.
With everything going on in our daily lives, it can feel like we don’t even have time to do the necessities.
How can we find time for such a time-consuming interest like language learning?
We can’t.
But we can be deliberate about when we study, deciding what those study sessions look like before we start and never letting two days go by in a row without studying.
Create time
Setting aside a specific time each day when we can study and ignore everything else in our lives is the only real way to amass the hundreds and thousands of hours required to master a language, no matter what any YouTubers might tell you.
Prioritize this time in your day, and it’s okay to be a little selfish about this, too; nobody else can learn a language for you, and if you don’t prioritize this time, no one else will.
Studying more than this is okay, too, but building your schedule around 15 minutes in the morning with your coffee, a 30-minute session at lunch, or 60 minutes before bed will guarantee that at least some studying gets done every single day.
