Step 12: Embrace Mistakes

People should not be afraid to make mistakes. Instead, they should embrace
them. Everyone is bound to make errors at one point in their life; it is just a
natural part of life. Being able to commit mistakes means that learning is
happening and progress is underway. This is especially true for language
learners. A person is sure to make hundreds upon hundreds of mistakes while
learning a new language. This just means that they are using and practicing the
language. This is much more conducive to achieving fluency than having the
information sit idly in their brain.

The core and essence of language learning is communication. It should be
enough to be able to convey essential information, especially if the learner is
only just a beginner. It is healthy to strive for perfection, but one should
remember that it is not essential. What is most important is the ability to use the
language to communicate in an effective and intelligible manner, even if that
means making a couple of thousand mistakes in the quest to be able to do so.
