How difficult is lay motivated... When you start learning a language, surely you are going to be very motivated... at least at the beggining. When you start you don't stop learning every day, every moment, and you notice you are increasingly improving. Then, it happened to be easy laying motivated and you did not find it hard to put yourself to study a little bit more. But when you have been studying for ages it can be difficult to feel the same, because probably you are tired. You must have been working tirelessly, you can even be obsessed with the launguage and it does not matter if you tried to take it as a hobby because in you inner world you know you would like be learning as much as you did when you started. Do not worry, it is part of the game. Keep yourself getting out of your comfort zone in order to keep improving. You knew you had to work hard to get your dreams, have not you?
