Maturity has been given different
definition by different people based on their perception of individual behavior
and attitude towards whatever they experience or pass through in life. Everyone
has different level of maturity and the ability to be mature is something of
great value both to the individual self esteem but also to the society at
large. Becoming matured in life is often a rocky one as a lot of lessons need
to be learnt in order to attain such height in life. However, the level of
maturity of an individual is not dependent on the age of such person but may
actually be dependent of the events and responsibilities surrounding the person’s
life.
The ability to resist fear and
ability to take on new challenges in life willingly or unwillingly as fate may
have it will go a long way in helping us become more responsible and matured.
Maturity is an unshakable identity as a maturity person hardly become immature
revealed the significance of such act in our individual life. Listed and
explained below are ten (10) key traits of maturity in one’s life or 10 signs
of maturity in every human being in life.
1. Idea discussions
One of the early signs of
maturity in one’s life is that you tend to center your new discussion more on
new ideas and concepts rather than individuals. When you engage in less
discussion about other peoples in your life and more concentrated on life
changing ideas and topics, you are getting matured already. You start becoming
more responsible for your actions and avoid blaming other people for your
actions or inactions. Discussions about people and events are actually nice
most times but when such discussion start shifting to ideas and career uplifting
discussions, your level of maturity is definitely getting high.
2. Loving others as yourself
Self-love is very important in
your life as this will make consider the merits and demerits of you joining an
activity. Taking issue with everything about yourself is an exhausting game
that always end up making you a loser. Loving yourself doesn’t mean you should
not be tolerant to others. You should learn to love yourself in your way that
it won’t affect you physically or emotionally. Real self-love will not only
encompass your legitimate imperfections but also all that’s perfect and great
about you. Loving yourself has to do with acknowledging what you need for
self-development and improvement and working relentlessly toward achieving that
goal.
3. Assuming responsibility
Never try to push responsibility towards other
as this can make you insecure and look immature. Learning to accept responsibilities
for your actions will make you more mature faster than you think. Taking the Will
Smith drama at the 94th Academy movies award for example. Despite
the fact he wasn’t apologetic at fist, he later took responsibility for his
actions which wasn’t favorable to his personality and worldly recognition. He
is pointing out that he has a duty as human being to take responsibility for
everything he does whether right or wrong. Whenever you accept the cause in a
matter, it gives you the opportunity for a new outcome.
4. Understanding that not
everything requires your opinion
The better you understand that
not every discussion or event require your opinion the more matured you become.
Having opinion on everything happening will only make you serve yourself and
other most times as you might be saying what you want to say and not what they
want to hear or probably need to hear. Giving a listening ear, space and time
for others to air their opinions rather than you at all times will be a great
gift to others and also provide you with learning opportunity that may make you
better, matured and respected. This is also one of the signs of maturity in a
human being in life.
5. Keeping an open mind to
everything and attachment to nothing
Never think you and your actions
will be right at all time. Having winning mentality for all your actions is
good but never be too physical with it but rather keep an open mind to
everything while hopeful for the best outcome. You may not actually be your belief
most times. You can always create new beliefs and views about all things. Your
ability to always let go equals will never be equivalent to being stuck in
wherever you are in life.
6. Giving before you receive
Whenever you give, you are more
than likely to receive appreciation before the receiver. Being a giver can also
make you receive service, trust and love when you are the giver rather than the
receiver who is most expected to show appreciation, service, trust and love
when receiving. Giving when you have shows maturity in helping others and
showing compassion.
