In this episode, I react to a comment in my Facebook community about feeling overwhelmed. Episode Summary: There's a lot of advice, it can be difficult to know what to do It's important to interact with others, but only when it adds value Texting and language exchanges (free) - you still have to follow social graces Teachers (paid) - you're paying for the convenience and efficiency You should trust your instincts as to whether it's productive or not Don't fight losing battles - there aren't enough hours in the day You can learn a lot by yourself - The "One Thing" approach can save you a lot of heartache Resources Mentioned In Today's Episode: How to get s*** done - my go-to article on the "One Thing" approach to language learning Start speaking today: I’d like to thank iTalki for supporting the show.
