　　The Importance of Motivation and Method in Learning

　　As we all know, intelligence and diligence are important for learners, but motivation and method are the key factors to determine one's success or failure in learning. So the importance of motivation and method in learning should be clearly understood by everyone.

　　For one thing, motivation provides learners with driving force and direction. Learning is a long-term task full of problems and difficulties, and motivation can help us stick to it. When we have a strong motivation in learning, we can focus all our energy on it. For another, the importance of learning methods is self-evident. Good methods can make us learn twice the result with half the effort, and bad methods will make us twice the result with half the effort. So in the learning process we must find a learning method that is really suitable for us .

　　Judging from the evidence offered above, we may safely draw the conclusion that motivation and method are crucial to learners. Therefore, each of us should have a strong motivation and find good learning methods in our study.
