Learning a new language doesn’t come easily to me, especially at 47. It might have been slightly less painful when I was a teenager and learning about La Rochelle and how to ask the way to beach in French.
Last year, I thought I’d have a stab at learning a bit of Spanish.
I turned to a couple of apps and a YouTube video that had been watched a million times. That must be good, I figured.
While my Spanish remains no better than Manuel’s English, there was a suggestion in that video that changed my thinking on language-learning:
Aim for communication rather than perfection.
That resonated with me partly because I was keen to learn Spanish and partly because it’s also a great way to deal with resistance, which I wrote about yesterday. Done is indeed better than perfect.
