Language Learning

Being fluent is not a good goal to have when you're learning a language because it is not clearly defined. If you have clear goals set out for yourself, for example, "I want to be able to read this book, understand this movie, have a conversation about... , make videos about... in the language," then you have to gather and obtain specific information in the language. Fluency, however, is vague and doesn't give you anything to work with.
