At twenty years of age, the will reigns; at thirty, the wit, and at forty, the judgement.

A quick comment:
Yes, how true this is. When I was 20, I had a will that wouldn’t quit. At 30 some of that faded a bit and the wit did begin to take over…whether by being witty or by using wit to get things dine rather than necessarily by sheer will.
I guess I have yet to personally experience the judgment part since I’m not yet 40.
No matter, I’ve seen it enough…experience and maturity combine to form judgment…and that’s why most CEOs or senior executives are 40 or older…that’s where better judgment resides.
Even at 30 I was willing to admit this.
What to do with this quote:
Try to use a bit more of the other principles in age groups you are not in. If you’re in your 30’s….if you’re in your 20’s, …and for those in their 40’s….
