00:00:00
there is no way around this if you are
00:00:03
consistently doing the wrong things you
00:00:05
will never reach your language learning
00:00:07
goals mistakes are the killers of
00:00:10
language gains if you can eliminate
00:00:12
these five things I guarantee you that
00:00:15
you will see a change in your language
00:00:17
development in under a week before we
00:00:19
get deep into this video there's a theme
00:00:22
that we're going to constantly return to
00:00:24
that is going to help you tremendously
00:00:25
as you become a language learner seek to
00:00:29
understand and seek to be understood
00:00:33
that's it basic level communication if
00:00:35
you approach things in this manner you
00:00:37
will have a far better chance of
00:00:39
reducing the pressure and anxiety on
00:00:41
yourself as you try to learn to speak
00:00:44
and understand a new language one of the
00:00:46
best things that you can do as a
00:00:47
language learner is to eliminate
00:00:49
decision fatigue if you could have
00:00:52
everything structured in a way that
00:00:53
gives you the knowledge to know this is
00:00:56
what I do on day one day three week one
00:00:59
month one month two month three oh wait

go up because we're putting lots of
00:01:39
value in there go check it out all right
00:01:41
let's
00:01:44
go there are three issues here
00:01:47
overanalyzing our material over
00:01:48
analyzing ourselves when we go to speak
00:01:50
and overanalyzing when we go to read
00:01:53
listen or when we hear something this is
00:01:55
a problem as an adult when we were
00:01:58
younger we just let things happen
00:02:00
we let go it is the number one mistake
00:02:03
if you are in your head whether it's
00:02:05
language learning speaking playing a
00:02:08
sport doing whatever you are not going
00:02:10
to allow flow to come in this is the one
00:02:12
thing an ability to handle and relax
00:02:15
with chaos it sounds abstract but it's
00:02:18
truly very concrete I'm going to give
00:02:20
you guys an example when you are
00:02:22
listening to someone talk you are not
00:02:25
analyzing each and every word the reason
00:02:27
you're not doing that is because you
00:02:28
you're at a level of flow the language
00:02:31
is so deep within you at least to some
00:02:34
degree especially with context that you
00:02:36
don't have to look at every word but
00:02:37
what happens is and thanks to our
00:02:39
schooling the traditional method has us
00:02:42
thinking we need to go word by word list
00:02:44
by list at the beginning how do I do
00:02:45
this right we'll get to vocab later on
00:02:47
because there are some people that just
00:02:48
don't understand that they did not have
00:02:50
flashcards when they were two your
00:02:52
parents didn't do that you learned a
00:02:54
language without flashcards and without
00:02:56
having to learn vocab specifically you
00:02:59
asked all right because as I said seek
00:03:02
to understand and seek to be understood
00:03:05
this is the key to all of this what you
00:03:07
want is to focus on the whole picture
00:03:10
can you understand and make sense of
00:03:12
everything that's happening in what
00:03:14
you're reading listening or watching
00:03:16
that's the switch that'll allow you to
00:03:18
just take in and be cool with the entire
00:03:21
situation me as a huge meditator that's
00:03:25
another skill and something that I
00:03:26
definitely think everyone should add
00:03:28
because what it does is teaching you to
00:03:30
slow down the chatter slow down
00:03:33
everything else that's going on around
00:03:34
you and just focus on what matters what
00:03:36
you decide that matters that's the point
00:03:39
of not overanalyzing and it's the very
00:03:41
first point because if you can get past
00:03:43
this you can just start downloading the
00:03:45
language onto your brain without you
00:03:47
even realizing
00:03:52
it too much time is spent on things that
00:03:55
are not giving you a return now this is
00:03:59
where you need to analyze things because
00:04:00
I'm betting that the majority of you
00:04:02
have studied another language in school
00:04:05
for many years and you're sitting here
00:04:07
watching this video about what to do
00:04:10
when to learn a language do we have a
00:04:12
problem with our schooling and the
00:04:13
traditional method yes we do but that's
00:04:15
what we need to do if you're spending
00:04:17
too much time in an app that's making
00:04:19
you play games if you're spending too
00:04:21
much time in your mother tongue if
00:04:23
you're spending too much time with a
00:04:24
tutor discussing rules or speaking in
00:04:27
English or in your mother tongue this
00:04:29
this is all time technically wasted what
00:04:33
you can do and I'm not saying you
00:04:34
shouldn't have fun while you're trying
00:04:35
to learn these languages you need to
00:04:38
have a focus on things that are going to
00:04:40
give you a better return what that would
00:04:43
look like is spending as much time as
00:04:45
possible in a level in place that's
00:04:47
giving you the input that allows you to
00:04:49
learn because you'll understand this a
00:04:52
whole host of problems you will have in
00:04:53
a language is going to be based on vocab
00:04:56
the problem if you've not seen our
00:04:58
flashcard video is that
00:05:00
the best way to do this is to have a
00:05:02
focus an interest that you love one that
00:05:05
is going to keep up your motivation and
00:05:07
your discipline to return to it and it's
00:05:09
going to allow you to think about it
00:05:11
when you're not studying we want to make
00:05:13
sure that you're reading you're writing
00:05:15
you're listening your speaking your
00:05:17
thinking is all aimed at a center point
00:05:19
we want to create a cocoon a world for
00:05:21
you to live in that way you have the
00:05:23
ability at the end of this to know that
00:05:26
that is where I want my 20% if I can
00:05:28
have all of my input and all of the
00:05:30
things that I'm studying around that at
00:05:32
the beginning and even further as you
00:05:34
get better and better you will do
00:05:36
wonders always look to invest your time
00:05:39
on the things that are going to bring
00:05:40
you the most value if you do that you
00:05:43
will make some serious
00:05:49
gains inconsistency will kill you period
00:05:53
the only way to make true and Lasting
00:05:55
gains is to stay consistent with your
00:05:57
work and so now that we've already gone
00:05:59
through and said don't overanalyze make
00:06:02
sure that the things that you're doing
00:06:03
are actually going to give you a good
00:06:05
return and we've we've done our 7-Day
00:06:06
language challenge we've done other
00:06:08
different types of challenges and we've
00:06:10
said to you 15 minutes is more than
00:06:12
enough for you to make some sort of gain
00:06:14
but the truth is you got to string
00:06:16
together a bunch of days your brain has
00:06:19
to understand that it's always going to
00:06:20
be something for you the worst thing you
00:06:22
can do is have 1 to 3 days of work and
00:06:24
then 6 weeks off or 3 weeks on and then
00:06:27
3 years off right so your brain is
00:06:29
trying to make sense out of all these
00:06:30
new sounds and words characters and
00:06:33
things that are coming in if you can't
00:06:35
give it a chance to make a pattern out
00:06:38
of that you will take forever forever to
00:06:42
learn this new language you have to
00:06:44
constantly be in contact with the
00:06:46
language anything that really gets you
00:06:48
interactive in the language is helping
00:06:50
but like we said the things in the 20%
00:06:52
are going to help you quicker faster
00:06:55
with more ease and get you more but of
00:06:57
course if you want to go play the the
00:06:59
Duo thing and whatever that's fine it's
00:07:02
going to give you something if someone
00:07:05
forced me to choose only two things that
00:07:08
I would have to do consistently to learn
00:07:10
a language I would make sure that the
00:07:11
first one is a quality piece of material
00:07:15
that I can watch pick up context so I
00:07:18
can hear and see how they're pronouncing
00:07:21
and doing things the second would be a
00:07:24
quality thick book some story that I
00:07:27
could wrap my head around fiction is
00:07:29
great stories are great because that's
00:07:31
what they're going to do to your brain
00:07:32
they're going to stick in there and just
00:07:34
stay and you're going to tell yourself
00:07:35
you're going to think about them you're
00:07:36
and it's going to reach your
00:07:37
subconscious those are the things if I
00:07:39
had only just a little bit of time that
00:07:41
I would spend doing it would not be on
00:07:43
trying to learn one word here this that
00:07:46
and the other because the vocab gains
00:07:48
that you have to be perfectly honest
00:07:50
they are majority of them will come from
00:07:52
Reading if you can be consistent with a
00:07:54
story right maybe even the same story
00:07:57
that you have as a movie which is
00:08:00
possible it will change the way that you
00:08:02
do things right and you have to just you
00:08:04
have to be consistent with it for enough
00:08:06
time to get your brain to pick up on the
00:08:09
pattern once your brain gets the pattern
00:08:12
and your subconscious understands what's
00:08:13
going on you don't have to put in that
00:08:15
energy all right you don't have to you
00:08:17
won't think so hard and it's crucial for
00:08:20
what you really want to
00:08:23
do this next mistake I call the over
00:08:26
tutor I don't know if that's a word but
00:08:29
it is now what do I mean by this if you
00:08:32
put the responsibility to learn a
00:08:34
language on your tutor you will not
00:08:36
learn a lot of people pay for a course
00:08:38
pay for things to do and then they'll go
00:08:40
and then they'll just show up for the
00:08:41
class they'll sit there they won't do
00:08:43
the homework everything in language
00:08:45
learning is about doing the work all
00:08:47
right a tutor the best way to use a
00:08:49
tutor as a matter of fact I'm going to
00:08:51
make a video on this I don't care if it
00:08:52
bombs because if you can structure and
00:08:55
find good tutors it's gold all right you
00:08:58
have to structure rate they have to work
00:09:00
with you it has to be something there's
00:09:02
this there's this give and take that you
00:09:04
have to understand which is why I want
00:09:05
to make a full video on it but to get
00:09:06
you guys some simple guidelines on how
00:09:08
to get the most out of your tutor you
00:09:10
need to think of your tutor as simply a
00:09:13
test at the end of the week after you've
00:09:16
done all this you need to be measuring
00:09:18
how much more fluid you are in your
00:09:20
understanding and in your speaking
00:09:22
that's it you start to use a tutor in
00:09:24
that way they can start to become
00:09:26
completely involved in what you are
00:09:28
doing and trying to learn and that's it
00:09:30
give them the focus it should not be the
00:09:33
other way around it's a massive mistake
00:09:35
to just give up that power of what you
00:09:38
want to learn in a language to somebody
00:09:40
who doesn't know you you know you all
00:09:42
right and because you know you you need
00:09:44
to set the standard set the tone set the
00:09:47
rules and set the Direction all right it
00:09:49
it just doesn't make sense any other
00:09:54
way there are so many different schools
00:09:56
of thought for what is the best time for
00:09:58
a student to start speaking should they
00:10:00
speak from the beginning should they not
00:10:02
speak at all there are some schools that
00:10:03
don't allow you to speak for months and
00:10:05
months and months where I stand is
00:10:07
somewhere in the middle because if you
00:10:09
understand the principal theme seek to
00:10:12
understand and seek to be understood
00:10:14
then you can utilize your speech as a
00:10:17
primer and way to get back some
00:10:19
information that you will understand
00:10:21
where the problem is is that people are
00:10:22
tempting to speak without having the
00:10:24
vocab without having proper input
00:10:26
without having a true pattern in their
00:10:28
brain you're forcing it and if you force
00:10:31
it too soon you're going to delay
00:10:34
yourself it's not that you're NE never
00:10:35
going to get there you won't let the
00:10:38
process happen think about how what
00:10:40
happens to kids think about how much you
00:10:42
explain how much the tutor being parents
00:10:44
or friends family how how much they go
00:10:47
this is a phone you can call people look
00:10:50
at all the in look at all of that look
00:10:52
at all the context that you get this is
00:10:54
a book you can read in the book that's
00:10:58
what it looks like and because so much
00:11:01
of that you can skip as an adult which
00:11:03
is a beautiful thing because you can
00:11:05
actually you can learn in my opinion as
00:11:09
long as you can access this part of your
00:11:10
brain that will allow you to kill the
00:11:12
chatter that will allow you to just
00:11:14
simply think and be okay with chaos and
00:11:16
be okay with looking and sounding stupid
00:11:19
with not understanding everything that's
00:11:20
going I think adults can truly learn
00:11:22
quite quickly we don't have to
00:11:24
re-explain Concepts to you you know what
00:11:27
this is we have to explain this to a
00:11:29
child child has to figure out what a
00:11:31
book is why are there lines in there we
00:11:33
have to write what's writing okay what's
00:11:35
this word they have to learn all of that
00:11:37
you don't so that's a side tangent but
00:11:39
it's just to say that when you are
00:11:40
trying to speak early on stay in your
00:11:43
lane all right stay within the confines
00:11:47
of what you know completely if all else
00:11:50
fails remember to get more input you
00:11:53
always want to slightly be doing a
00:11:55
little bit more slightly a little bit
00:11:57
more slightly a little bit more Challen
00:11:59
yourself just a little bit more one
00:12:01
excellent way to structure your learning
00:12:03
days is to make sure that when you have
00:12:05
your most amount of energy take the time
00:12:07
to utilize something that's in your
00:12:09
level whether that's I've talked about
00:12:12
uh graded readers those are books that
00:12:14
you know are are made for language
00:12:15
Learners or Peppa Pig uh cartoons that
00:12:19
you've already seen movies that you know
00:12:22
every single word every single line a
00:12:24
series that you've seen 80 times and
00:12:26
binged watch those so the comprehensible
00:12:29
input is very very very good and then
00:12:33
when your day is done and you're you're
00:12:35
going to find that Netflix at some point
00:12:36
go watch something that's still in that
00:12:38
language but that's going to give you
00:12:39
what the natives are speaking and just
00:12:41
put the subtitles there and let go all
00:12:44
right you're just doing that one for fun
00:12:46
okay what that does is pull you forward
00:12:49
all right and because you're spending
00:12:50
the time doing something that is of your
00:12:52
level here but you've got something up
00:12:54
here that's pulling you forward you get
00:12:56
those native those things that we do in
00:12:58
every language we don't we slur we we
00:13:02
use slang and all those things and so
00:13:04
what you're doing is you're pulling from
00:13:06
both angles and what will end up
00:13:07
happening over time is that you will
00:13:09
find yourself understanding that okay I
00:13:11
don't really need that as much as much
00:13:12
you're pouring yourself here and this
00:13:13
stuff is starting to come down here and
00:13:15
then boom you'll meet in the middle at a
00:13:16
point where you can flow back and forth
00:13:18
and then you'll start to move yourself
00:13:20
to only the stuff that's made for native
00:13:21
speakers that's something that I do
00:13:23
consistently there are some other things
00:13:25
that I do of course and if you guys want
00:13:27
to check out more of those hacks those
00:13:30
tips and if you just want something
00:13:31
that's going to structure so you don't
00:13:32
have to think and know where I should be
00:13:35
truly spending my
00:13:36
time click the link right down below
00:13:39
join this community there really isn't a
00:13:41
one-size fits-all language learning
00:13:43
method but there are some things you can
00:13:45
avoid and there are some habits from the
00:13:47
successful Learners that you can
00:13:48
incorporate every single day and that's
00:13:51
exactly what our course does for you in
00:13:54
those first month weeks days and it's
00:13:58
what you need my friends leave us a like
