Build a Suggestion Box App: Adding Business Logic (Step 2- error)

I cannot seem to complete Step 2- 'Add a validation rule' https://trailhead.salesforce.com/projects/suggestion_box/steps/suggestion_box_4

The formula given below, seems to be incorrect
Implemented_Date__c > TODAY


Can someone help me please? I'm not sure what I have done wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Rebbecca,

Make sure that data type of "Implemented_Date__c" field is Date OR you can use below formula in place of above. 
DATEVALUE(  TEXT(Implemented_Date__c) )>TODAY()

Thanks so much Amit! :)

I realised that the Implemented_Date__c field was infact Date/Time.
