Creativity - German learning

I thought German learning would be easy and quite effortless, that it will stick in my mind. Actually initially it was as I have learn simple words and lately I decided that I am ready to introduce the grammar and sentence making and this is where I found it difficult. German grammar is not similar to English one. However, in my opinion words are easier to remember. By learning another language I reflect on how important nowadays is speaking several language. Friend of mines is able to speak 4 languages fluently and I thought about how that fact can provide him a brilliant future. Theoretically he could work at 4 different countries as he will understand basic language and learn specific terms.  

But on the other hand is he able to learn each of this languages as his mother tongue? I was wondering if it is even possible as well as what about the aspect of adaptation. If person is able to fit and adapt to particular, different that his/her culture of origin? I think that there are several issues that cannot be overcome and culture is one of them. 

Learning outcomes:
- Undertaking new challenges,
- Planned and initiated activities, 
- Consideration of ethical implications,
- Developing new skills,
- Increased awareness of strengths and areas for growth
