In this eye-opening episode, Mario Anaya Nunes challenges the biggest myth in language learning: that faster is better. Drawing from the timeless fable of the hare and the tortoise, he reveals why rushing through English studies is actually the #1 cause of failure – and why embracing a slower, steadier pace leads to genuine success.

Dive deep into the psychology behind our obsession with speed learning, uncovering how childhood pressures and societal expectations create anxiety that sabotages our progress. Mario explores why intelligent people often struggle the most with language learning, trapped in a cycle of starting fast, burning out, and asking themselves years later: "What if I had just kept going?"

• Overcome the shame of starting with basics
• Build sustainable study habits that actually stick
• Transform your inner critic into a supportive companion
