I read a book of Robert Allen where he told this little story:

A wise martial arts Master was ready to pass the mantle of authority of his organization to his number one student. The Master prepared a final test. He asked his student to move a large granite rock from one location to another before sunset. He told the student to use all of his power to accomplish the feat.

The student tried and tried but could barely budge the rock. Just as he was about to give up the master said, “Use all your power”. Have you considered using a lever? In near contempt the student responded, “I didn’t know I could use a lever.” The student hurried and found a strong pole and began moving the rock. However, time was running out and he realized he couldn’t accomplish the feat in time. In near despair he sat down.

The master quietly asked, “Have you used all of your power? The student cried, “Yes, I’m physically drained, mentally perplexed, and spiritually empty. I have no more power”.

“Oh no,” said the master, “You have more power than that.” The student looked up at the smiling master and sighed, “Where?” At which the master said, “Right here,” as he pointed to himself. “Did you ask for my help? You have the power to ask for my help. Use all of your power.”

“Will you help me”, asked the humbled student.
“Yes”, said the master.

Then, retrieving a golden whistle from his tunic, he signaled his other students who had been hiding in the hills, to join them. They quickly moved the rock to the appointed place.

The point that Allen make using this story is the importance to use all our power ... he said that we live in an age of knowledge and information where we can access knowledge and information in the blink of an eye. Allen was talking about the area of financial prosperity. But if we consider the area of learning new a language, it can apply too.

Are you trying to move your rock by yourself when you have all this power all around you to make things easier? What you need it's just your passion and determination to learn a new language.

I've already talked about learning a language with podcasts and Skype. Since we are in the age of the Web 2.0, we need to take advantage of everything that Internet offers. Today we can learn new languages and interact with native speakers and tutors in our target language. We can make friends, share pictures, share videos, chat with the entire world!
