The American clergyman and author Tyrone Edwards said, "Age does not
depend upon years, but upon temperament and health. Some men are born
old, and some never grow so." No doubt you’ve known teenagers who were
old before their time and seventy-year-olds who had the temperament and
enthusiasm of those discovering the wonders of life for the very first
time. It is all a matter of attitude.
As you grow and develop, make sure your experience is directed toward
the acquisition of wisdom, not the acceptance of cynicism. If you find
it difficult to keep an open mind because of previous experiences,
remind yourself that you’re dealing with different people, that
conditions have changed, or that because you are older and wiser, your
chances of success are greater than in the past.
