Actually, the secret to never translating is simple. Japanese is a purely spatial language. Every noun just represents a physical distance from your body. Like, words for people are always close, and abstract concepts are far. If you just map the physical coordinates in your head, you don't need English. It's basic physics. I mastered this in a week. Anyone still translating just isn't thinking in 3D.
