The Comfort Zone Myth

Fortunately, you have something that I didn’t have when I learned Spanish: A step-by-step way to progress up the stairs. If you follow the Accelerated Spanish process, you’ll always know which step you’re on toward fluency, instead of repetitively leaping up and falling back down.

You may have heard that “magic happens” when you’re outside your comfort zone. A popular illustration shows “where the magic happens” as separate from “your comfort zone”.

This is partly true. And like all partly-true myths, it’s extremely dangerous and can lead to all kinds of trouble.

For example, at this moment, it’s probably outside of your comfort zone to get on the phone with a native Spanish speaker and talk entirely in Spanish. If you do that right now, you’re probably going to end up frustrated and disillusioned.

Even worse, if you switch to Spanish conversation too soon, you’re actually not going to learn as quickly as you should.

Sadly, I’ve seen dozens of Spanish learners who had to take enormous steps backwards, because they mis-learned and mis-practiced enormous parts of the Spanish language. By trying to go too far forward, they ended up only harming their own learning. In every case that I’ve seen, the students ended up having to spend months on unlearning.

To keep this from happening to you, follow the advice of the ancient Greeks: Know thyself.

Self-awareness is essential to progress. If you don’t know where you are, how can you even take the next step? If you get a little too cocky and claim you’ve mastered the fundamentals before you’re ready to move on, you’re going to end up misstepping and falling backwards.

In the Accelerated Spanish system, self-awareness is built into the process, IF you take the time after each lesson to examine your level of mastery.

By completely dominating each lesson, one at a time, you’ll always be working where the magic truly happens: At the fringes of the comfort zone.
