A21 TRAINING KINSHASA 🚀 WITH DR. RAOUL RUBEN
To conceive and visualize a project is to complete half the journey toward its accomplishment. Our lives, ambitions, and drive for achievement are defined by the questions we dare to ask. It's a widely accepted truth that questioning is the critical first step toward accessing deeper knowledge and achieving optimal consciousness.
Our values are the only genuine witnesses to our personal growth—they validate why we are called to do and how we are called to act. Life subtly guides our personal growth. It strategically places people in our path—support systems, mentors, coaches, and vital guides—who ensure we successfully integrate into all that we are meant to build.
This insightful perspective served as the introduction by Dr. Raoul Ruben at the massive A21 Training held in Kinshasa on Monday, October 20th, a prelude to the A21 RECOGNITION CEREMONY on October 25, 2025, at the Stadium of Martyrs Gymnasium. The session was deeply euphoric and profoundly impactful. The addresses from this renowned "Globe-Trotter" are consistently dynamic and fresh.
The fundamental question to ask before embarking on any project is: "Why?" This seemingly simple inquiry is, in substance, loaded with immense meaning. It compels us to uncover the raison d'être—the essential purpose—behind every initiative. Why build this relationship? Why pursue this job? Why invest in this venture? Why adopt these strategies?
This core questioning allowed Dr. Ruben to distill four indispensable points from the inspiring conference, enabling everyone to maximize the benefit of this unique shared moment.
1. Be an Actor, Not a Spectator, in Your Own Transformation.
Choosing to be the actor of your transformation means consciously and responsibly taking back control of your life. It means rejecting the passive stance of the fatalist who simply endures events. Instead, you adopt the role of the creator who acts, builds, and directs their destiny. Personal evolution is non-transferable; you must embody it in every deliberate choice, habit, and intentional step. Being an actor requires the courage to self-examine, enact necessary changes, and fully accept the consequences of your decisions. It is the process of turning your life into a masterpiece.
2. Start Small, Dream Big.
Great accomplishments always emerge from modest origins. Starting small is not a weakness; it's a strategic approach that allows for learning, experimentation, and building an unshakeable foundation. The size of your start is irrelevant; the magnitude of your vision is everything. Dreaming big means looking beyond immediate obstacles, cultivating belief in a superior future, and persevering until it's realized. Every small victory, every minor advancement, is a vital brick added to the structure of your dream. Ultimately, success is the cumulative result of thousands of small, courageous beginnings.
3. Commit to Constant Self-Evaluation and Adjustment.
Genuine growth requires intellectual clarity and consistent inner discipline. Self-evaluation is the humility to look at yourself honestly, analyzing your strengths, weaknesses, progress, and missteps. This truth-finding exercise is liberating and prevents stagnation. However, clarity is only useful when paired with permanent adjustment: correct, improve, learn, and restart. As the world changes and challenges evolve, only the capacity to continually reinvent yourself guarantees enduring success. Self-evaluation, therefore, is not a judgment, but a powerful tool for personal refinement and maturity.
4. Maintain the constant Learning Mindset.
Those who believe they know everything stop evolving. But those who maintain the spirit of a learner remain vibrant, curious, and adaptable. The learner’s mindset recognizes that every experience, every person, and even every failure, can be a teacher. It is about actively cultivating the hunger to understand, improve, and discover new perspectives. Learning keeps your mind young and your vision strong. The most accomplished leaders are, first and foremost, students of life. Cultivating this unwavering humility to learn offers the possibility of infinite growth.
Dr. Raoul Ruben, a living embodiment, of these values, spoke like a true sage. He delivered the perfect words and gestures to inspire the thousands who see him as a model of success and an architect of transformation. He has dedicated his life to a mission: to ensure his followers are not just amazed by his incredible journey—which is more than an odyssey—but that they find in his message the spark to seize control of their own lives and, in turn, become powerful agents of change for their families and communities.
