Its like a gold mine... Full of Knowledge, its so... well... so simple really, and it all can be done on your own! Its really REALLY strange because in 18 months I plan to move and live in Japan, PRECISELY 18 months. I suppose I should get started! I don't know if your going to read this or not but, Thanks man! Or should I say Arigato Sensei:] I can’t believe I found this site! Its like a gold mine… Full of Knowledge, its so… well… so simple really, and it all can be done on your own!

When I'm doing Kanji, I try to think things like, "what else could I possible do right now?" I've already told myself that Kanji comes first, and doing anything else now would be a waste of time. :) Maybe I totally missed the point here, but I already feel a bit of that inertia in the Kanji phase.

Hehe. "Discipline is remembering what you want." That's so true for so much; dieting, studying abstaining from alcohol. I've always been a pretty self-disciplined person and I can't understand what sometimes makes it so difficult for people to stick to a plan, like not drinking cola. Some of the most successful life coaches - and I know because my mum loves life coaching and all that - really focus on positive visualisation. In 'positive visualisation' you take time out of your day to image yourself really slim, or really healthy, or fluent in Japanese as the case may be. By reminding yourself of your goal, you stay on track more easily. A bit of rant, but I suppose I'm just affirming your wisdom oh mighty one, hehe.
