Encouraged by Serpent, I'm thinking about joining the consistency thread.
Just one question: I know we're allowed to set goals for weekdays or weekends only but is it possible to use "every other day" goals? I.e. I set a goal to work at least every other day on something and I obviously count only the days of actual work. If I make a longer pause that one day in between, I'm back to square one. Is that OK? Furthermore, I have noticed you use clear and measurable goals (specific studying time or the amount of material to be studied). My goals at the moment would be simply "do something in the specific language at least every other day" (same for all 6 languages in which I want to develop better consistency). Let me know if that's compatible with the idea of the consistency thread :). 1 person has voted this message useful | |

But as this isn't anywhere near as popular as on the writing forum I took this from, and as language learning is different from writing, I think letting everyone adapt the rules for their needs is fine :))) You do need to set a lower limit though: even 5 minutes will do :D in fact, even one minute will do :P espejismo, shall I add your HP1 in 11 days as a completed goal on the first page?

A 1-minute limit seems too low :), 5 or 10 minutes every other day (preferably every day) should be reasonable, and I might set higher time limits or more specific goals in the future. 1 person has voted this message useful | |
