If you want to learn to speak correctly you must speak incorrectly.

- If I want to speak correctly I must speak incorrectly?

- YEAH. Pretty much.

- Bro. What the f… ?!

First you must be doing it, to be able to do it well

You see.. In order to make a lot of errors you have to speak a lot. You can not make errors by sitting quietly by yourself listening or reading.

So the more errors you make, the more you are speaking.

You see where I’m going with this?

The more errors you make, the more practice you get.

The more practice you get, the better you are speaking.

The more errors you make, the more times you’ll be corrected.

The more times you’ll be corrected, the more things you will learn.

So what else are you afraid of that stops you from speaking? Because the fear of making mistakes was just taken away from you…

You’re welcome 😁
