Hi Penelope, I read this on my phone, but couldn’t manage to get the comments to work, so came back to this article today, it was so important to me.
It is a lesson well-taught and makes so much sense. I battle bipolar disorder and have regular depressive episodes. Finding things to get me through those periods never happened. Mostly procrastination due to fatigue.
My version of language learning has been signing up to do a copywriting course online. I know it’s not the same as being in a classroom environment where I can interact with strangers to learn the craft, but it is helping me. I got an A grade for my first assignment and that gave me a huge boost!
I have discovered another version of language learning for me has been hanging out on Medium for the last three weeks, reading hundreds of articles and writing my own.
Your article makes a lot of sense and is inspiring, thank you!
