Negative thoughts

My #1 disclaimer for unexperienced language learners is that achieving a good command of their target will cost blood, sweat and tears. I’m totally convinced mastering a foreign language has more to do with consistency than with innate talent.

Grasping some nuances of a foreign language can be challenging, and even frustrating. Some aspects can actually be deceitful, but hey, Rome wasn’t built in a day.

The most important thing is to stay in the game. So, don’t ever let negative thoughts grow in your mind. Proceed as the Little Prince when he lived in the asteroid: nurture the rose and pull up regularly all the baobabs before it’s too late.

Happy learning,
