| Chigusa: Okay listeners... |
| Peter: What’s your new year’s resolution? |
| Chigusa: And how will you make sure you succeed? |
| Peter: Let us know your strategies in the comments! But... |
| Chigusa: ...A lot of people fall short... don’t they, Peter? |
| Peter: They do. I do. We all do. If you don’t have the blueprint for setting successful goals... |
| Chigusa: ... if you don’t know how to stick to your learning routines... |
| Peter: ...or stay motivated, listeners, your efforts will probably fall flat and… speaking from experience. |
| Chigusa: Peter, so what is this “secret” blueprint for setting successful goals? |
| Peter: Well, Chigusa, if our listeners have been following the Inner Circle from the previous years, it’s not such a secret anymore. It’s something I use every month with my language goals and teach our Inner Circle members… But, if you want to know how I went from failing my yearly goals years ago to finally succeeding and learning Japanese, among other languages... |
| Chigusa: Listeners... pay attention because this is a GREAT lesson... |
| Peter: So, a few simple changes to my goal made a massive difference. I now apply these to everyday life goals. So, it’s just not about achieving language learning success, but success in all areas of life. So, the reason is because they work so well. They’re so powerful. |
| Chigusa: What kinds of changes, Peter? |
| Peter: By the way, again, you can apply these lessons not just to language goals but to any life goal, and that’s the power in this. So, the first rule and first big change is, set small, measurable goals. Chigusa, most people aim for something vague, or they’ll set a very vague New Years Resolution. Something like, “This year, I’ll become fluent in Japanese, or this year I’m going to get in shape.” |
| Chigusa: Yeah, or “This year, I’ll go to the gym.” |
| Peter: But these vague goals are very unclear, and they allow you to push back. “I’ll get in shape next month.” Again, what is getting shape exactly? If you don’t define that, without these clear goals to strive and reach for… I mean, what do you think? |
| Chigusa: Yeah... you wouldn’t know how to approach them. If your goal is “I want to learn a new language,” but you don’t know how you’ll do it, how often you’ll study, what you’ll use… I don’t think it’ll work out as well. |
| Peter: Exactly. And that’s how most learners fail. What I do first is, I set deadlines. For example, January 2022, I’m learning Hindi. My goal is to speak 1 minute of conversation by the deadline of January 31st, 2022. |
| Chigusa: Just 1 minute? Okay, that is very manageable. |
| Peter: Yes, it’s a very, very small goal, but that’s the point! This… getting in shape… Let's take bodybuilding or working out and lifting weights. You can’t lift hundreds of pounds on your first day at the gym, right? |
| Chigusa: Right! And you can’t expect to be fluent on your first day or your first month either. |
| Peter: But listeners, you can start speaking... have a 1 or 3-minute conversation in your first month.... |
| Chigusa: And you build up from there. That’s how it works. |
| Peter: Or at least, that’s how I like to approach it. So for my first month, I aim for 1 minute. In February, I’ll aim for 3 minutes. March will be 5. And these will add up, so by the end of the year, I’m going to try for 30 minutes of conversation. |
| Chigusa: That makes a lot of sense. |
| Peter: So, listeners, start setting small, monthly goals with a deadline. |
| Chigusa: Are there any other tips you can give to our listeners for 2022? |
| Peter: Okay, again, write down a small, measurable goal, set a deadline, and put it somewhere where you’ll see it every day. I recently saw this interesting thing where you can even tell Siri, “Hey Siri, set a reminder,” and that reminder is: all you have to do for the first month is one minute of conversation. Again, if you’re applying to the gym, all you have to do is go to the gym. Don’t even set the weight, but just go and show up at the gym. Just download the lesson and see if it fits into your routine. And… this is where you can see it every day might sound strange, but believe it or not, hearing that goal, Siri, when you wake up reminding “hey, you have to do this, ” it will keep you focused and help you reach that goal. That small goal which seems laughable, but you know, many people can’t reach that small goal. |
| Chigusa: Right, and that doesn’t just apply to language learning, but any goal you’re trying to achieve in life... |
| Peter: It really works. I cannot tell you how powerful it is. Especially in this digital day and age where it’s so easy to get distracted when you’re sitting in front of a computer, or you open your iPhone to do your language learning or whatever goal you’re trying to reach…and there’s notifications that will just get in your way. So again, listeners, write it down in a physical form, keep it, stick it on a fridge, or have something audio - Siri reminding you. If you take these tips and apply them right now, you’ll see yourself progressing towards your goal. |
