5 Ways to Easily Learn any Language in a Fraction of the Time

If you add up all the time you binge watch Netflix or spend seeing the latest movies, you might feel guilty for wasting time. Imagine creating a situation where you can both enjoy your favorite entertainment, relax, and learn hours and hours of a new language as well.

People will spend years in University and tens of thousands of dollars just to receive a degree in Spanish, French, etc.

A much better plan would be to save all that time and money and live in a different country for 6-12 months.

If you enjoy music like myself, consider making it a habit to put on a Spotify or other playlist in a different language. Then go about your day with the music in the background while your subconscious mind absorbs the new language.

Pairing the things you love and enjoy with a new language you are trying to learn is a fantastic strategy!

If you love MMA/BJJ like I do, train with Brazilians to learn Portuguese. If you are a big soccer/sports fan watch the games in Spanish and play in a league with Spanish speakers. This strategy applies to hobbies outside of sports like Chess, theater, etc.

When I was improving my computer programming I would see my friends and employees code for hours and hours and get intimidated about the focus needed to learn.

Until I heard some great advice which was It’s better to code for 20 minutes everyday than 3 hours twice a week.

The same is true with learning human languages as with computer languages, consistency is key. Much better to do 10 minutes of Duolingo everyday, than spending a whole day learning a new language only to forget it the rest of the week.
