DOCTOR A SU PACIENTE:
-No debe usted abusar del TEQUILA. Por lo menos tiene que beber tres veces más agua que de Tequila. Venga a verme dentro de ocho días.
A los ocho días el paciente está más enfermo que antes.
-¿Hizo usted lo que le ordené? -pregunta el médico.
-Sí, doctor, estoy bebiendo tres veces más de agua que de Tequila... y créame que es una tortura.
¡Hay días que me trago treinta litros de agua!

 من در یه خونه‌ی بزرگ زندگی می‌کنم. در شهر من بیشتر مردم در خونه زندگی می‌کنن نه در آپارتمان. خونه‌ی من یک هال خیلی بزرگ داره و در هال یک آشپزخونه‌ی نسبتا بزرگ هست. خونه‌ی من سه تا اتاق داره، اتاق من بزرگتر و روشن‌تر از اتاق خواهرهای منه. خونه‌ی ما یک دستشویی هم داره. دستشویی در راهرو کنار اتاق خواب خواهرهای منه. مثل اکثر خونه‌های ایرانی خونه‌ی من هم یک حیاط بزرگ داره. در حیاط یک باغچه‌ی کوچیک ولی خیلی سبز داریم. من خونم رو خیلی دوست دارم

Forget what everyone else says—this tip is all about empowering YOU to embrace the learning methods that work for you, no matter how unconventional they may seem. Research shows that confidence and personal relevance are key to successful learning. So why let someone else dictate your path? When it feels wrong, then it is probably wrong for you.

💥 Know that you are allowed to break Free from Convention:
Teachers might tell you that memorizing sentences word-for-word isn’t the best approach. Sure, there’s logic behind understanding sentence structure to expand your conversation skills. But what if you just want to start speaking now? What if memorizing phrases helps you get that plate of food, navigate a new city, or simply break the ice in a conversation? Guess what? That’s totally okay!

Studies indicate that personalized learning strategies—no matter how unconventional—can enhance motivation and retention. So, if memorizing a few key phrases helps you feel confident and ready to speak, go for it! It’s your learning journey, and every step counts.
