  • If you're getting distracted, it's not because something is wrong with you, it's because something is right with the distraction. #

  • Don't wait for your good equipment to arrive before you start practicing. Start practicing now on the crappy gear. Habit > gear. #
  • Practicing on crappy gear is infinitely more valuable than owning or awaiting good gear and doing 0 practice. #

  • Never try to listen to Japanese 24hrs/day. Instead, listen to Japanese for 60 seconds at a time, 1440 times/day. Frequency > quantity. #
  • Assuming 3m30s length, 1 day = 411 Japanese songs. #immersion #
  • Each SRS card must have max only 1 new thing. 1 new word/idea. 1 tiny step outside where you are right now. 1. No more. #
  • This goes for cloze deletions, too. Blot out max 1 word. I often blot out less than that (0.5~0.75 words). #
  • The Movie Method bit.ly/cBLjoQ #
  • If you can make time for "Farmville", you can make time to SRS. Treat SRS like "Farmville", not schoolwork. #
  • SRS is a lot like "Farmville" in that if you don't go…the cards die. Plus there are weeds — crappy cards — to pull out. #
  • @e_dub_kendo Don't add it. Just keep having fun. Keep getting exposed. Something will come along. in reply to e_dub_kendo #

  • @e_dub_kendo xactly in reply to e_dub_kendo #
  • Never do nothing now just because you can only do a fraction now. Do the fraction now, and save the rest for later. #

  • "Starting small is not a waste of time." Mark Victor Hansen #
  • @e_dub_kendo For shizzle. in reply to e_dub_kendo #
  • Take tiny steps. Shuffle your way there. No leaps and bounds (they'll take themselves via compounding effects). #
  • There is no "hard". There is only "needs smaller steps". #

  • @tokidokinihongo How do you combat the boredom of boring TV shows? in reply to tokidokinihongo #
  • Don't worry. You probably won't make it out of life alive. And probably you won't read every book you wanted to read. #
  • Since your lifespan places a hard time limit on the number of books you can read, read the books you REALLY want to read. #
  • Even with preloaded decks, you'll never SRS every sentence that exists in Japanese. So you might as well stick to the fun ones. #
