  • Toe language Learning success.

  • Okay, so what's the seven minutes?

  • Seven second rule toe language learning success.

  • First, let me explain where this tactic comes from.

  • A lot of you might relate.

  • Have you ever had a bit of free time and gone to YouTube to see what's new?

  • You play a video and just keep going and going, watching the recommended videos and other things of interest.

  • It's really easy to get sucked in, right.

  • Imagine you finally stopped watching after a really terrible video that seven minutes and seven seconds long have you ever suddenly realized how much time you've wasted and thought, What is this?

  • What am I doing with my time?

  • You've just been sitting there watching videos, Yes, although the final video was just seven minutes and seven seconds.

  • Think of the total amount of time wasted watching all those videos.

  • It's a lot.

  • This is where the seven minutes and seven seconds idea comes from.

  • If you have seven minutes and seven seconds to watch YouTube, you have seven minutes and seven seconds to learn a language.

  • Now you might be thinking this isn't enough time or you won't make a real dent in your language.

  • Progress with that.

  • But let's talk about why seven minutes and seven seconds is all you need to get started with the language, first and foremost for anything you do in life routines of the cornerstone of success.

  • So if you can stick with the routine, you're on a guaranteed path to mastering your language, and the seven Minutes seven second rule gives you just that.

  • A simple, specific routine.

  • Put in just seven minutes and seven seconds a day, and when you're done, that's it.

  • Here's what's so nice about the seven minutes seven seconds rule.

  • First, it's good for your motivation.

  • Think about it.

  • When we think of learning language, we imagine spending hours learning a language, and this ruins our motivation, doesn't it?

  • Or if you knew you had to write an essay and that it would take two hours, you wouldn't be too excited about starting it.

  • Now imagine you had a stopwatch in front of you and you saw you had three more minutes to go.

  • That doesn't feel so bad, and that's a major reason why this tactic works so well.

  • It's not a serious commitment that you dread all day.

  • You don't feel bad about it, and second, it's easy to do.

  • There's no excuse not to find seven minutes and seven seconds in a day when a day is 1440 minutes.

  • So if you're walking or driving to the store for 10 minutes, you could easily put that time in.

  • So think of the seven minutes in seven seconds rule as your small, measurable goals for the day.

  • It's the kind of goal that we often talk about setting.

  • It's small enough to accomplish its measurable so that you know when you reach it and all you have to do is hit that number every day and you're done.

  • So if you have a tough time getting into a language learning routine, this is perfect for you.

  • So what should you?

  • D'oh first sent a stopwatch to seven minutes and seven seconds and put it in the background.

  • Then start learning.

  • You can use whatever resource is you already have to fill up that time.

  • But if you're using are learning program, the first easiest thing you can do is learn with our audio and video lessons.

  • They're usually between three and 15 minutes long.

  • Just press play.

  • Our teachers teach you a practical dialogues.

  • They translate everything, and you can start speaking if you're under seven minutes.

  • When the lesson is done, you can replay or review it, or you can move on to another lesson.

  • Second, studying with our space repetition flashcards, since you have to be actively paying attention this will be a bit harder than just taking lessons.

  • But again, this is something you can sink.

  • Seven minutes into third, you can read and review of the lesson notes.

  • Inside, you get the lesson, conversation, grammar, explanations, the vocabulary and cultural insights.

  • So just read through and put in the time.

  • Once your stopwatch hit, seven minutes and seven seconds, you're done.
