What is maturity? Maturity as per me is the ability to behave and react as per the situation. The situation may call upon for seriousness and sometimes the opposite. We just cant be serious all the time. thats just not us. I choose to be me when I'm around my friends. I drop all guards and enjoy my moments with them. However when a serious situation crops up, when I am with them, I sometimes find it difficult to transit from the ME to the person required. May be this is maturity...!!! To move out from a personality that we are to a personality that is required by the moment. What if the person is not able to able to see the requirement. All people are not GYAANIs...!!! Some are dumb and some are MATURE....damn. The same word again... It sometimes gets so difficult to decipher the situation that it gets overwhelming and intimidating. The reasons could be many. May be we havent been in any similar such situation before, or we show disintrest in the situation, or we dont want to get involved in the situation as there are many other things on our head and many more. The list is endless. Then what do we do? hmm...thats what has been troubling me. My mentor once told me, "take as much responsibilty as you can. dont worry about the people around, even if they are negative". I strongly follow it. The act of doing a task responsibily may get us into the mode where we are stepping out of our skin (and start being a person that we are not in reality) to prove our worth and deliver the goods. I believe, it has got more to do with the mental attitude. What you feel for the situation. If we are deeply connected with the situation we understand the situation better and behave more maturely.
So I guess to be more mature I need to be a person that may be i am not or dont want to be???? May be I need to understand the criticality of the situation quickly even if i am not capable of it. Be cautious of my words that i utter even if i am a blabber mouth...thats like pushing yourself to the limit. The limit of our personality...!!!!
So i guess mathematically,
Maturity = f(situation, experience of a person in such a situation, person's mental attitude , person's ability to decipher and adapt quickly to the situation)
With the mantra as above i guess i am on my way to being more mature....
NAAAH...!!! maturity comes with age, but definitely these factors will help in sometime....!!!!
