How to make your resolution to learn Spanish stick

New Years is the time of year where many people dust off an old weight set or attempt a new diet. However, once the New Year motivation wears off, those weights and diet cookbooks often end up back in the depths of the closet. How do you keep your New Years resolutions a priority throughout all of the distractions and competing priorities that January brings?

Like working out, learning Spanish is a resolution that is best achieved with small and consistent bursts of practice, rather than starting too heavy and burning out. Unlike exercise, however, learning a foreign language is much easier to do while multitasking. With the multitude of language learning apps and free Spanish audiobooks out on the market, it is simple to study while you do dishes or fold laundry. You can even learn Spanish in the car or while you exercise.
