Counting down to the first 100 posts, it may seem as
if I’m treating this whole business as a bit of a game. Yes, so I am.
While it’s important to demonstrate that my theories
work, I refuse to get ‘serious’ about it all. Frivolity is, after all, a key
difference between study and unlearning. Therefore, although I must ‘walk the
talk’, that talk needs to appear somewhat silly for it to be authentic.
Here Donovan Nagel discusses the motivation needed to
learn a language. But to my mind, motivation is never an issue if one's approach
is sufficiently silly.
