The Lion and the Giraffe

Which animal are you?  We were made for greatness (like the lion), but too often we're trying to be something we were not created for.  A lion on stilts will never be able to run fast or catch prey.  Does he look like the "King of the Jungle" on stilts?  Of course not!  He actually looks ridiculous like that!

Language learning is no different.  Don't compare yourself with someone else.  Go at your own pace.  Eat what you can chew.  Little by little, you will get it.  It may take you a little longer, but enjoy the journey!  

Learning is not a destination, it's a journey of discovery.  Take time to smell the roses.  You will learn a whole lot more that way.
