Coach Raphael Djine argues that stopping learning is the first step toward failure. He compares personal development to software updates: your skills need constant refreshing to stay relevant. Knowledge means nothing without practice, like a doctor who never treats patients.

Point number 4, the insufficient education. The insufficient education. If you are not educated to your subject, or if, you know, after your normal education, you know, you finish school, you finish your PhD, you pack everything, boom, and you are out there living. You probably wonder why you are so frustrated because you didn't continue the education. You will never finish your education. The day you finish your education is the day that you pass and leave this world. Because every day you have to be able to face challenges. And if you don't learn how to do it, if you don't develop the muscle, How? What are you going to apply? Just imagine today we are dealing with COVID So a businessman that didn't learn how, you know, how to adapt with the new norm, the world become one. The whole world became become one. If you don't know how to do business in 2022, come on, you will lose it. You close it. The way we was doing business 30, 30 years ago is not the same way. What does it mean to you and I? This calls you to a new education. You have to update yourself. You have to upgrade yourself, just like a computer, just like this cell phone. This morning when I turned on my cell phone, everything blocked and it told me update it. I was like, whoa, update it. And another thing There's no value in education if you cannot apply. Matter of fact, whatever you know has no importance until you apply. It's when you apply that you get the result that you are looking for. Imagine, you know, I say I'm a doctor, but never practice. How can I have a result? So today you have a lot of people that learn so much, they are learning so much, they are reading books, but they are not practicing. They don't want to put pressure on themselves. And therefore, they wonder why they are failing. Oh my God, I'm losing. I don't know how to get what I want. Yes, you have so much knowledge, but you're not practicing. You're not putting that in practice. I want to challenge you to always practice what you learn. Go out there and try. It's when you apply the knowledge that you get the result. So it doesn't matter what you know, if you don't apply, you'll fail.
