Practice, practice and practice =)

Manage your time and give your goal a chance to succeed. I think you've got some nice tips up there, just remember that learning a new language is also about being committed and consistent, it's a process.

Extra tip: find a language partner, usually it helps a lot. 

It depends on what this person need in the moment, maybe it's a hug, some kind words of hope, maybe it's a funny joke. So I'd first try to find out what they need.

It had either good and bad moments, joy and sadness, success and fails, ups and downs !
I think I did learned important things that made me grow, I did achieved a few of my goals, I didn't everything I wanted to do but those I've done were worth the year. 

A new year doesn't necessarily mean a new life, but it feels like a fresh start and from this we can recharge our energy to be back on our activities with more discerniment, hope and positivity.

Haha just kidding but it's kinda true too. 

Well, I think it's a matter of having defined goals in your life, once you have it set, there will be motivation to get up and get things done. At least it's how it works to me. 
To be motivated is really important, it will give you enough courage to go and face the challenges ahead. Believe in your potential and give yourself the chance to succeed :)
