when you have been studying your second target language for several months (while continuing with your first, of course!)and finally get it posted on your profile and now, when you see it posted, it gives you such a great feeling of pride that you redouble your efforts,committing yourself even more fully to the challenge of learning the second language. When, by making a public statement about it, you feel a greater sense of responsibility to pursue your goals.
