In Episode 69, we explore the internal power of solo language learners and how deep peace, not pressure, builds fluency. Drawing from psychological frameworks like Self-Determination Theory, we see how autonomy and self-knowledge fuel motivation. For learners struggling with fear, guilt, or overwhelm, this episode offers tools like expressive writing, emotional labeling, and mindfulness-based focus techniques, all backed by neuroscience and cognitive psychology.

The key insight? You don’t have to fight your feelings.
You just have to work with them, gently and honestly.
Even in solitude, you are never truly alone—because your resilience, insight, and ability to adapt walk the path with you.



111 Tips for Learning a Language 

Tip 69 - Be the Silent Warrior to Forge Your Own Path in Language Learning

“I’d really like to participate in a drawing contest, which is organised by my university every year, and the first three prize winners actually go forward to a national drawing contest. I wasn’t so into drawing over the years, but I found that during all the covid lockdowns that it was a great way to pass the time, and really helped me from going stir crazy stuck at home every day during the numerous lockdowns we had.

 

I recently showed some of my friends a few of my sketches, which are mostly landscapes, and they were very complimentary, and suggested that I enter a competition, which gave me a boost of confidence. 

I imagine that the  competition would be pretty stiff for this contest, but i feel confident that i’ve really developed my skills enough over the past year or so, and with my friends and families encouragement have been able to get the nerve up to show off my drawing skills in public.

 

I guess the main reason i’d like to take part in this contest is that i’ve really grown to love drawing, and feel it would actually be a lot of fun to enter, as well as giving me a new challenge which i think i’m now ready for. Another reason is of course the chance of winning a nice prize, and maybe even having my drawing going forward to the national contest, which would really be amazing.

 

Thank you…. “
