The KISS concept comes up in many contexts. I’ve always been taught it as: Keep it simple, stupid! That’s a useful rule of thumb.

So here’s my application of the rule with regard to language practice. I alternate. On odd days, I work on a new language. On even days, I ‘depthen’ the ones that to some degree I already know. And because Japanese is my main challenge, I do some of that daily as well.

There—that’s all there is to it. Simple. Easy to remember. Foolproof. Not long before reaching my 500^th day, I discover the answer.
