Welcome to the KoreanClass101 Inner Circle.

Welcome to the Inner Circle.

Last time, you learned how to boost your motivation and bounce back after missing a goal. I was bouncing back myself, and aiming for 12 minutes of Russian conversation. Unfortunately, I failed. I reached 10 minutes, so I hit the previous goal I’d set, but I didn’t quite make 12.

It can be hard to get back on track, and it sometimes takes more time than you think. It’s not just “do double the work.” So now I find myself at 10 minutes in August when my goal is 30 by the end of the year. In the past, I’ve changed the goal when I got so behind, but this time, I want to stick with it. You may also be wondering what to do if you’re not on pace to hit your goal.

The way I see it, I can do one of two things: lower my expectations or extend my deadline. But I want to hit my goal, so I’m going to find a third option: putting in more time.

It’s been a very busy year, and the pandemic makes things hard. But I still need to step it up. I’m not on track with my goals… and I’m not on track with the pace of a normal language learner.

I’ll explain in this Inner Circle
