A Mature Person Always Acts from an Adult Position

Our problems come to us according to our age. The age determines the problems.

But put yourself in an adult position. Understand how you would act 20 years from now. And your problem will turn out not to be a problem at all.

Even if you're already over 60 and have health problems, at 80 you would tell your 60-year-old self: "While you can still move — keep moving!".

And what one phrase would you say to yourself if you could meet yourself as a child for just 10 seconds?

Questions & answers

Yes, according to the article, problems are given to a person according to their age — the age determines the problems. This means that the nature of difficulties changes depending on your life stage.

What should you do if you have health problems in old age?

Even with health problems at 60, an adult perspective suggests what you would wish for yourself in your youth when you're 80: while you can move — move. This means valuing the abilities you have right now.
