This leads us to waste our energy, money, and most importantly, time. 我们往往不知怎样开始，我们也没有时间可以花在学习上！这使得我们浪费了精力、金钱，以及最重要的——时间。 That stops today. We’re going to show you the 5 most deadly mistakes all language learners make?—?and how you can avoid them. 不过这一切都会在今天画上句号。我们会告诉你所有语言学习者都会犯的5个最致命的错误——以及怎样避免它们。 1. Not knowing your “why” 1.不知道“为什么” Understanding your “why” is where it all has to start. As Simon Sinek explains in his book, 一切都得从知道“为什么”开始。西蒙·斯涅克在他的书里说道： Start with Why that the reason why you’re doing something is far more important than the how or what. 从“为什么”开始。你做某事的原因比你如何做这件事以及这件事是什么都重要。 This is because whenever we take on a new task or project, there’s always going to be an obstacle or struggle that we’ll need to overcome. Those who give up early on are the ones that haven’t clarified what their “why” is. 这是因为，只要我们开始做一项新的任务或是项目，总会有障碍或者困难拦在前面要我们去解决。那些早早放弃的人就是那些不知道他们自己为什么要做这件事的人。 Let’s come back to language learning. Whatever your target language is?—?Spanish, Italian, Mandarin, etc.?—?what’s your “why?” 让我们回到语言学习上。不管你要学的是什么语言——西班牙语、意大利语、普通话等等。——你为什么要学它？ Here are some questions we recommend you ask, as explained in our free language learning course: 以下是几个建议你回答的问题，在我们的免费语言课程上也提到过： What you will achieve? 你会有什么成就？ Who will you be able to connect with? 你将能和谁联系在一起？ Who will you become as a person? 你将成为谁？ The next time you’re facing difficulty or losing motivation, just come back to these reasons, and you’ll get right back on track. 以后你遇到困难或者没有动力时，就想想这些原因，你就又能走上正轨了。 2. No clear end goal 2.没有清晰的目标 “Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.” “设立目标是把不可见的事物变成可见事物的第一步。” —?Tony Robbins ——托尼·罗宾斯 It doesn’t matter if we have the fastest car in the world. If we don’t know where we’re going, we’ll just end
