English Aha-moment: Learning by doing, not grammars and words

I was about to give up my English lessons, but this teacher had inspired me.

He did not have the class regularly, he just inspired me in his own way.

He gives me a prompt about how to be a native English speaker. The pain point is always like "I can recognize all the words, but I just don't understand the meanings."

"Most of time you don't need to learn the grammer, you are already OK at grammar and lexicon..." I said "Learning a language is not about language, its about learning culture."

The biggest approach of this class:"the Grammar is just a theoretical thing to tell and guide how can you do it better and more properly."

Like when you ride a bike, you don't learn physical principles or how the bicycle works.

You just do things in the 1st principle way.

Like Dan Koe said, if you want to learn the guitar, your goal is to play a full song via guitar, when you auctually finish it, you can say you CAN play the guitar.

And during the process, you will find sth stuck you, then you can search tutorials and guidelines and lessons to teach you.

That's called learning by doing.

If you wanna be a PM, that means: if you do find a market and user needs, you turn it into requirements and create a product, then you get feedbacks and iterate it--then it already proves you are a PM.

Start playing because the entire purpose of playing the guitar is to play a song.

You don't start learning, you start with the purpose.
