Practice focuses your energy on the process.It is not the things we learn nor our dreams and aspirations that determine our results, but rather those habits that we practice each day. Focus your energy on the process, not the product.

Practice And Focus 

Passive learning creates knowledge. Active practice creates skills.

Learning vs. Practicing

“When we practice something, we are involved in the deliberate repetition of a process with the intention of reaching a specific goal. The words deliberate and intention are key here because they define the difference between actively practicing something and passively learning it.”

Some of us use learning as a way to avoid doing the actual work toward reaching our goals. In this case, it becomes a form of procrastination.We claim in these situations that we are preparing or researching the best methods and practices to reach our goals.

... but learning is not practice. Unless you apply that knowledge and make a meaningful contribution with it, passive learning is not a form of practice. Making mistakes while practising is a great form of learning, because it helps you gain important insights.

Practice Is Learning

New knowledge does not necessarily drive new results, especially if your goal is to make progress and not to simply gain additional knowledge.The gap between where you are now and where you are in the future is not always caused by the lack of knowledge.

Knowledge And Results

We all have goals that we want to achieve in our lives. These goals may include learning a new language, eating healthier and losing weight, becoming a better parent, saving more money, and so on. It can be easy to assume that the gap between where you are now and where you want to be in the future is caused by a lack of knowledge.
