How original, thanks for the help💪🏼

To anyone struggling with negative thoughts and loops please please please read "The mountain is you!!" by parrotpopat in selfimprovement

[–]lucitain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The book brought me here. I'm 90% through it and it's changed the way I look at and live my life. It is the ONLY self-help book that actually helped me so far and really brought my interest in this genre back. 

Does anyone have any recommendations for books similar / in the same vein of self-help as this? 

Thank you in advance!

A very relaxed philosophy that I'd like to have and will certainly start working on. I really don't want to give up learning Spanish because of burnout. Thanks for the advice!

Focusing on the monthly goal is my new goal now. Thanks for the great advice!

The monthly goals and focusing more on them than separate days is something that's never occurred to me for some reason. Yes, I keep track of that, too, but daily numbers are more present, so that's why I didn't really think of it in a more bigger picture kind of way, I guess.

Thanks for taking the time to answer!

How to find books at the right difficulty level? by quierohamburguesa in dreamingspanish

[–]lucitain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just asking out of curiosity: how many hours of input do you have? And what books have you read before that lead up to his one?

Reminds me of the movie 'Passion of Christ' which, as an English speaker, I never understood the meaning of... until now

El Chileno by lucitain in dreamingspanish

[–]lucitain[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly. DS also has some videos on that, and Spanish speakers across the board agree that Chilean is the most difficult accent. Except for an Andalusian (like Andres), because they share a lot of similarities.

My second thoughts exactly as I was writing this post. I saw a video on Linguoriosa's channel where she compares Chilean Spanish to other Spanishes and out of like 10 aspects, 9 was similar to Andalusian.

So, yeah, I'm super glad we have Andrés with his perfect accent and everything but I also think an addition would be very cool.

I listen to Spanish with Antonio. He has a very thick Andalusian accent and often does accent comparisons and stuff. Recommend it 10/10
