That's small step for a man, a giant leap for whole deal! I got simple thing: when you try to be good in some area (science, languages, etc) you should make steps. Steps is a practical thing but dreams are not. I have example. Example is about famous Russian esperantist, let call him Aleksey. He was the great one in Esperanto. He wrote articles, even big essays in Esperanto. He had a correspondences with many other esperantists. But when he met somebody he couldn't speak in Esperanto. He just couldn't do it fluently . He had to search right words into his mind and after speak it. That's why I think that I have to do small practice steps. It may be very small, very ridicuolus steps, but every small step makes you closer to your goal. And after every small step you will do your next steps more confident and likely it will be more complex steps.

I've got simple idea: when you try to be good in some area (science, languages, etc), you should make steps. Steps are a practical thing, but dreams are not. I have an example.

This example is about the famous Russian esperantist -let's call him Aleksey. He was the great one in Esperanto. He wrote articles, even big essays in Esperanto. He had a correspondences with many other esperantists. But when he met somebody he couldn't speak in Esperanto. He just couldn't do it fluently. He had to search right words into his mind and after that, speak it.

That's why I think that I have to do small practice steps. It may be very small, very ridicuolus steps, but every small step makes you closer to your goal. And after every small step you will do your next steps more confidently and it is likely they will be more complex steps.

 

[Good work and a good message.  In the last sentence, 'they' refers back to 'your next steps', which is plural, and therefore requires 'they', rather than 'it'.]

Yeah, I completely agree with you! It's quite difficult to speak with other people in general. And if you should converse using foreign language it's ten times harder. There's a big difference between active and passive use of language. ( active means listening and speaking; passive - reading, writing). But everything is getting better with experience. So I wish you good luck with it!
