cool language learning tip
go to tunein.com and find a talk radio station in the language you are trying to learn and then listen to it in the background while you work on the computer
you will be surprised how much you can pick up passively, especially if you are also doing more standard language study type stuff

Wow.
Seems like a great idea. I am already listening to a french radio, pretty cool haha.
Thanks for the tip.
And I like this post also, it is helped me a lot to manage my time and improve some areas.
It fits perfectly with Jim Collins' concept of 20 mile marching. I am using this as a "Self-improvement 20 mile march".

Didn't read, just skimmed, but fuck, that stuff is good enough that I'm coming back tomorrow for it. Love the 2nd and 3rd graph.

#2, in post #2... that's really it. You suck, you improve a lot... then I feel that if you slack off you lsoe it. You push on and become *great*... that's when it's like riding a bike; you don't really lsoe it, the core, as YOU are a cool dude.

#3, lolz, I used to do EXACTLY that ;)
still do every so often actually, you'd be surprised what everyday mundane statistics like that can teach you

You forgot the most important Habit of all.

1. Approach Women

Also forgot the following essential habits:

2. Happiness - yes its a HABIT that takes practice to learn and master.

3. Sales - we now live in a world where all of us is a brand. our job is to sell that brand either in the market or socially.

4. Charisma 

5. Reading 



But also knowing that mastery over something requires dedication to ONE habit. Not 16.

For language learners, if you have a smart phone check out Anki app. I've been using it about a month and its working really well, like it a lot.

Another cool useful tip is to always carry a smaller notepad and pen with you. You won't believe how many times I've come up with a great idea, be it for a song, a novel or some invention and I didn't write it down. I hate trying to mesmorize something brilliant I came up with. Because it never sounds as good as it did when I came up with it but didn't stop to jot it down.

This is a great post.

I only skimmed it, but I will re-read it later tonight for the finer points. One word of advice that I`m not sure if was mentioned is to remember to have FUN as well. Don`t let everything be about accomplishment and SUCCESS.

MAKE EVERY DAY COUNT!

Thank you, sir.

Regards,

Yoda
