A person's age is a very vague concept, someone at 20 years old can feel like an old man, and someone at 70 retains a youthful spirit, looking for intelligence and a thirst for life. Always young remains the one who constantly improves himself and does not rest on his laurels. The transition from one age to another is accompanied not only by changes in physiology, but also by the perception of the world and the feeling of being in it. Let's try to understand how the formation of personality occurs. It is conventionally divided into seven-year cycles of development.
Cycle from birth to 7 years
This period is one of the most important. The baby learns the world mainly through the relationship to the mother. Mother for him – the center of the universe and everything revolves around it. During this period, the basic concepts are laid: "what is good and what is bad." The child should be surrounded by a sense of security. Everything that happens during this period will affect his future life. You can understand how a child perceives what surrounds him by looking at the pictures.
If at this age a child is deprived of love, then in the future he will not be able to build harmonious relationships either in society or in his personal life.
Cycle from 7 to 14 years
At this age, the child already separates himself from his mother and is aware of himself, his "I". The environment (school, additional interests, circle of friends) begins to leave an imprint in his behavior and thought processes. During this period, the role of parents is very important. The role of the father comes to the fore. This cycle of development is associated with the emergence of a thirst for knowledge, the child is interested in everything that happens around him, analyzes and draws conclusions.
Cycle 14 to 21
The most turbulent cycle of development in terms of emotions and aspirations, reads estet-portal.com. Most often it is associated with strong emotional experiences. A teenager tries to behave like an adult, but he does not always succeed. Youthful maximalism comes to the fore: excessive demands on others, on yourself – idealized.
At this age, children are often prone to mood swings: from depression to a surge of positive emotions. The child often "fights" with the foundations of society, trying to stand out or assert itself.
Cycle 21 to 28
A person tries to adapt to the laws of society, to integrate into it. Begins to take responsibility for their actions and decisions. Understanding how the world works. The qualities of independent survival and building one's own life are growing.
Often in this stage of life, some find a mate and start a family. The foundation is being laid for further coexistence.
Cycle 28 to 35
The first period of rethinking what has been achieved is coming. Someone changes work in favor of a more interesting and satisfying not only economic, but also spiritual needs. Someone changes a partner or just gets divorced, realizing that his partner does not share his values.
Most of the time, people in this developmental cycle already have children of their own (and more than one). Thoughts about their purpose and the structure of the world begin to arise. A person asks two main questions:
- What does not suit me at this stage and why? How can I change this?
- What is the most important thing for me (personally)?
Cycle 35 to 42
Own dreams and aspirations become fundamental to decision making. Public opinion at this stage becomes less significant.
Very often a person starts everything from scratch, taking into account previous experience, missed opportunities and their own desires. The "crisis of the middle" is coming life". People are trying to deeply rethink what happened to him earlier and why. They find the spiritual component for further harmonious life. They build new families if it didn't work out in the past.
Cycle from 42 to 49 years
In this cycle of development, the question of relationships with loved ones is acutely raised. People begin to appreciate and understand the word "family" more. Upon reaching material well-being, spiritual values come to the fore. Being needed by other people, being in demand in the profession is very important in this cycle of development.
In personal relationships, feelings are renewed, they become better, more spiritual.
Cycle from 49 to 56 years
The age when the accumulated experience bears fruit. If you enter it with dignity, without trying to regain the bygone youth, you will be able to perceive yourself harmoniously. The main has already been achieved. There is room for new plans and ideas. Often at this age, brilliant discoveries are made or masterpieces are created.
The peak point of spiritual and creative development is coming.
