For me, it was learning English. Although I do make a few mistakes here and there, I’m mostly perfect on it.

The amount of resources you have access to dramatically increases when you know a universal language. I say dramatically because it made me realize how much my native language lacks when it comes to certain topics. The most obvious one to me was tech and computers. Everybody knows how to use Windows but there are very few resources about stuff beyond Windows. It’s actually sad. [insert sad face here]

    It could help with long term to define sub goals.

    For example, about what amount of savings you want to have by which date, or set a date when you want to have a clear concise description of what kind of house and location you are looking for.

    At another date you want to be familiar with all the things that involve buying a house, the documents and what not.

    By defining sub goals you keep things real and are able to measure your position towards your goal.

    It’s a valid strategy for dealing with complex and long term stuff.
