| Becky: Alright, listeners, why is your reason so important for motivation... |
| Peter: ... and overall success? |
| Becky: Peter, wouldn’t you say that often reasons are tied in with goals? |
| Peter:That’s right, Becky. Listeners, more often than not, your “why” is directly related to your goal... |
| Becky: Like... “I want to live in the country where the language is spoken.” |
| Peter: ...or “I want to understand the culture, movies, and music.” |
| Becky: But sometimes, it can also be something simple like... “I’m just interested in it.” |
| Peter: Exactly, but regardless of your reason, by simply knowing it and writing it down... |
| Becky: ...you’ll be able to maintain your motivation and keep going. Is that what you do, Peter? |
| Peter: You got it, Becky. Right now, I’m re-learning Chinese, and I keep my reasons and goals written down, sitting in front of me, so I can always remind myself. |
| Becky: And does that really work for you? |
| Peter: Definitely. Simply putting your goals down on paper probably increases your chance of success by 90%... |
| Becky: Wow.... and revisiting and reviewing the goals keeps you focused on them, right? |
| Peter: Exactly. I think about it more. And thoughts lead to action, so I end up studying almost daily. |
| Becky: I see! So listeners, what’s your reason for learning? Be sure to write it down! |
| Peter: And if you’re interested in what other language learners are saying... |
| Becky: We’ve asked... and here are the Top 10 Reasons for Learning a Language. |
| Peter: Number One: I love the culture and the people who speak the language. |
| Becky: This is a popular answer, especially amongst our Japanese and Korean learners. |
| Peter: Number to Two: I want to understand my favorite songs, movies, and TV shows. Also a very popular reason! |
| Becky: That’s right. And listeners – songs, movies, and shows are great ways to immerse yourself in the language! |
| Peter: If you’re spending your time learning AND also immersing yourself, you’re guaranteed to learn faster. |
| Becky: Number Three: It's a beautiful language. |
| Peter: You know, sometimes, an answer as simple as that is really good enough. |
| Becky: Yeah, it means you have a genuine interest in the language itself. |
| Peter: Number Four: My family comes from a place where the language is spoken. |
| Becky: The fifth one is similar: I want to speak to my partner's family in their language. |
| Peter: I can definitely relate. I learned Chinese to be able to speak with my wife’s family. |
| Becky: Nice. The sixth one is also in line with these: I am learning the language to impress someone. |
| Peter: Listeners, are you learning a language to impress or talk to someone special? |
| Becky: Definitely a powerful motivator. |
| Peter: Agreed, Becky. That was one of my reasons too once! The seventh one is... Ah, this one, you should say... |
| Becky: Yes, yes, yes, please let me say it! I love traveling! By the way, if that’s your reason... be sure to check out our Survival Phrases Lessons! |
| Peter: Becky, you’re quite the traveler. How many countries now? |
| Becky: 47! |
| Peter: That’s incredible. |
| Becky: Yeah, it’s soon to be 50! Excited! |
| Peter: Go, Becky, go! So do you study the language of the country you’ll visit before you go? |
| Becky: Last time, I actually couldn’t find much on the language because not many tourists go to the country I went to... but I did try! |
| Peter: Becky, that’s why we have Survival Phrases, they’re perfect for travelers that need the just basics to get around. |
| Becky: And that’s all I learned, yes! Now, Number Eight: I live or want to live in a country that speaks the language. |
| Peter: This one is also very powerful and why I mastered Japanese. |
| Becky: Number Nine: I just love learning languages! |
| Peter: What’s great about this is...if you’ve learned one language... some say, it’s EASIER to learn another. |
| Becky: Because you learn HOW to learn a language, right? |
| Peter: Exactly, Becky. And also, I think you learn your own language which probably most people use without knowing the mechanics. I think that plays an important part too. |
| Becky: I definitely learned more about English when I was studying Spanish, which was my first second language. |
| Peter: Right? That’s why the second time around might be a lot easier than the first. |
| Becky: I guess it depends on the language. Listeners, if you want to know how to learn a language with proven strategies and tactics... |
| Peter: ...be sure to check our exclusive Inner Circle Lessons. They’re available to all Premium and Premium PLUS members. |
| Becky: And the last one, Number Ten: I want to open my mind and become more international. |
| Peter: In other words, self-improvement. |
