#reasons for learning a language

Here are 20 reasons why you should learn a foreign language. (You can find even more if you look up advantages of your target language.) :)

1. Makes you more attractive. Seriously. You don’t even have to speak it all the time. It’s enough if people know you CAN speak it.
2. Increased concentration.
3. Increased multi-tasking-skill.
4. Increased intelligence / IQ.
5. More open and tolerant.
6. Increased self-esteem.
7. Lowe chances of diseases. For example like Alzheimer (4x).
8. Better memory.
9. You make decisions faster and better.
10. You make decisions (only in your target language) more logical.
11. Less “limited” mind because of more views.
12. Better in separating important from unimportant information.
13. Better in discovering false information (lies).
14. You won’t get into tourism traps.
15. Art, literature, books, etc. in original language.
16. You’re more positive.
17. It’s easier to solve complex problems (for example in mathematics).
18. Advantage because of globalization. The world gets “smaller” because of the internet.
