7 Signs Someone is Truly Mature (Wise)

How do you know if someone is as mature as they appear? Although we often associate maturity with age, there is also emotional maturity to consider as well. You don’t need to be in your seventies to be emotionally mature or wise. Some people can be well into their adult life, yet they lack the maturity of some of their younger counterparts. So how can you tell if someone is really mature and wise?

Disclaimer: If you did not relate to any of these signs, please do not take this feedback as an attack on your character. This article was meant to be a self-improvement guide for those of you who have been feeling a little stuck.

remember: every moment, you're younger than you'll ever be and older than you've ever been.

"age is just a number, maturity is a choice "

[Giyga]

I remember when I was 13-14 and I was trying to act mature. Ended up destroying most aspects of myself.
For what it's worth, I hate that word. I was deceived into believing being mature was a goal I had to achieve, and it ended up becoming an insidious mindset.
This video has showed me I am not fully matured, but I've changed. More importantly, changed without trying to be what I am not.

I remember hitting 15 years old and having mastered these 7 signs. I'm happy I did, because I was in balance. Only trying to get out of this led me down wrong paths, and now I found that I'm happier being like this video.

I used to be truly immature one time, but when I realised that I can't keep living like this I started to discover my purpose in life. It led me to go through life with humility, discipline and an open mind to keep learning from everyone. Anyone can learn to be wise/mature, you just have to be willing to commit to it no matter how hard it is.

Out of all the channels about mental health, relationship advice, life. Yours is best and also true. People don't want advice that makes no sense and just put them in wrong direction

[julianinlaw]

This was a great video. Especially balancing character & emotions. Choosing your value system over your temporary emotional state is a practiced skill and something everyone needs to work on (myself included).

Many people are very mature, but don’t have the confidence they might need, so even though they’re not naive, they can get taken advantage of. If you are mature, please try to be brave in your decisions. Please take care of yourself. ❤️

omg the voice just broke my heart into two pieces, this is one of the most comfortable voices I ever heard.
The person who's telling is mature for sure. This makes me explore this channel more and more .

I can relate to maybe 3, maybe 4 points in this video . I can confidently say that I am more patient than those around me, I try to be open-minded and try to learn about the circumstances of the decisions of others, I know when to hold myself accountable, and I can recall myself stepping back from a fight just to assess what was really going on .
