The belief that certain level of successes and achievements is tied to certain age (especially older people). I later realised that such belief became a thing because those who believed it used their own experiences to tie certain successes to certain age. I mean, those days men get their first car around 40,45, 50 and this was because of their lifestyle like the work they do, when they started working,etc.
So, a young man of 20-28 owning a car might be a big problem for them. Unlike in more advanced countries, where younger people are the ones making big moves.
Absolutely!
That was the perspective we saw things through, many of us at least, and it truly shaped our mindset in that line which affected our efforts in life. It might not seem a big deal but it was certainly a drawback.
I like this example you gave. I'm glad you share the same understanding on this. Thanks for reading.
I'm glad we are now longer tied by such belief...you're welcome man.
Oh yes!
