Deliberate practice is not the same as rote repetition. Rote repetition — simply repeating a task — will not by itself improve performance. Deliberate practice involves attention, rehearsal and repetition and leads to new knowledge or skills that can later be developed into more complex knowledge and skills. Although other factors such as intelligence and motivation affect performance, practice is necessary if not sufficient for acquiring expertise
(Campitelli & Gobet, 2011).
Learning is Continuous!
All humans are capable of learning. It is our species’ signature strength. But the ability to learn is both a skill that requires practice and a muscle that requires exercise, so if you stop learning, you become less and less capable of learning.
The world is changing quickly, and sooner or later you’ll need to learn new skills in order to adapt. If you’re not practicing relentless learning, you won’t be ready.
