(A little rant about goals [feel free to skip ahead]:
If you don’t have a goal in mind, you more than likely won’t be able to learn a language. It’s important to have goals so you can work towards them… do you know how satisfying it is to see yourself fulfill a goal that you set?
However, if your goal is too extreme, you also are likely to not succeed in your target language. Maybe your goal is to become fluent in 1-2 years… and so you’ll study for a year, and you’ll see that you’re not at all fluent. You’ll probably think: “Why am I not fluent? I studied so hard to get no where near what I wanted.” But you did get somewhere, your ambitions were just too strong.
It’s important to set small and achievable goals and if you want to set a big goal like “Become fluent in _____,” don’t set a specific time frame. Allow yourself to slowly work towards the big goal. The small goals will still satisfy you while you work towards your bigger goal.)
