Shortly after he got to the peak, Simpson fell over in the snow and broke his leg. In this situation, a broken leg means almost certain death, but Simpson tried and successfully pulled himself across fields of ice and stone until he reached the base camp eight kilometres away. How did he make it? Over and over again Simpson broke the main task down into smaller goals.
Break your main task into smaller goals. This is often the key to a successful plan to achieve challenging goals that seem to be impossible.
Language learning, similar to mountain climbing, is a tough task to most language learners. However, learning from the above story, we can use Simpson's method to study languages. My tips for designing a study plan are as follows:
Understand what kind of learner you are
Some people are "visual （视觉）learners" and remember best by seeing pictures and imagining things in their mind; others are "auditory （听觉）" and are happy to learn by listening; "kinesthetic（动觉）" learners tend to learn by doing things and experience.
Realize your own competence （竞争力）
You should realize what your strengths and weaknesses are. Also, you should know which skill you are going to improve most? Spend your time on each skill properly. Then do a little every day rather than try to "cram" lots in a short time.
Write down your plan on a calendar
Decide which skill and what area you are going to practise each day. More importantly, your plan should be practical. Once you have a clear goal in your mind, write it down on your calendar. Each day you should carry out your plan according to your timetable. Do not delay or make up any excuses because of your failure to complete your daily task.
Studying is like climbing a mountain and you should take one step at a time. When you set out to climb it step by step you will find that it is not so difficult as you think. Similarly, it is also true in language learning. You can improve your language skills step by step. Break your main task into smaller goals, and you will realize your dream.
