Oh yeah, I'm back in college for a career change in my early forties, and I see the difference in world experience and cunning that I have, compared to even the most intelligent and wise early 20 something. Use each asset to the best of their ability.
I’m getting a masters in my mid thirties with a cohort mostly in their early twenties and I completely agree with you. I wrote a whole thing, but it really seemed like bragging. It’s incredibly obvious to me that the difference is just time, so I don’t feel pride in it. They’ll get there.
Just another example of the wisdom that age can bring, if you're open to learning. You don't brag about what anyone can achieve.
May you have continued success in all your endeavours.
Nice work!
