How does one mature?

Question

I consider myself mature in a lot of ways with the acception of one..........wanting others approval. How do not want others approval? This seems like a simple question, but it is difficult to me. How do I relieve myself of this silly habit. Thanks

Answer 1

maturity is something that every person has their own idea of what it means to be mature. believe that a person is mature, when they have understandings about the way things are, and responsibility for their actions, understanding that what they do, effects people and situations. When you can understand what impact you have, and act in a way that is helpful and understanding, then you are a mature person. as for social behavior, someone could be what people would term "immature", but if you happen to have a young persons social mind, and lack of social restraint, but you still retain your values and act in a way that causes no harm or disorder, then your perfectly fine.

Answer 2

Lol, I find it ironic that you so boldly call yourself mature. Maturity doesn't just happen, silly. Someone becomes mature over years and years of life, or of life's events and fortunes or misfortunes. This means that even a 60 year old can still be childish at heart, and someone who is a mere 10 years old can be mature. I think that if you really are mature... you could figure it out yourself, but, if you are a normal, average joe like I think you are, you could use some advice. That's why you asked, right? Well, maybe your search for approval is fueled by an inner longing for love and praise. It sounds silly, but if you weren't praised and complimented enough as a child, as you grow older, you will seek approval more often. Try finding something you're good at and get better at it. Work on your self-esteem. I wish I could help shed more insight, but I'm not a doctor. It's good that you know what it is that needs to be fixed, though. Maybe you could seek advice from a professional.

(1) The pulse rate in a new born baby is about 140
beats per minute. This pulse rate gradually reduces
during the teenage period and settles down to it's
stable value of 76 beats per minute after the age of 24
years. Different sects in the world have different
criteria to declare a person to become a youth. The
Indian tradition says that a person becomes a youth on
his 25th birth day, taking the stable heart beat value
into consideration.

(2) Modern psychologists treat the period from 35 to 40
years as middle-age crisis period. Most of the people
may not feel much during this period. However for those
few persons who experience its full intensity, it will
be like a mini-death. In English, 'flourit' means the
age of dawning of wisdom; it also means the age of 40.
(See a multi-volume dictionary in a library). Energy in
the body will be at its highest during the youth period
from 25 to 40 years of age. Generally, Buddhi
(intellect) starts functioning after the age of 40
years, but it may take longer for others. You can not
blame a teenager or a youth for not having it. It is a
general observation that only person aged beyond 40
years are called intellectuals.

(3) The period from 40 to 60 years is called the
declining period of youth-hood. It is also the period
of gaining wisdom.

(4)The age beyond 60 years is called old age.

History knows that major inventions or
innovations in science were made by people
after the age of 24, and major achievement in
philosophy, history or literature after the
age of 40.

Answer 4

It is fine to want others approval. Everybody needs to know that they are accepted, approved of and loved. People cannot grow out of it and you do not have to think that it makes you less mature.

Answer 6

Think of pleasing yourself. Pleasing others within reason aint a bad thing, but once u do something to please another where it compromises who u are as a person, thats when its best to think twice

If you become truly secure in yourself. Pleasing yourself should in turn please others. The ones it dosent please are the ones not worth pleasing

Goodluck
