告別幼稚！10大信號你已經長大成熟了

Maturity is a state when an individual is in a position to realize what is happening around him/her, to understand the rationale behind those happenings and does not get too elated nor too depressed by final results. Thus he/she is in a position to absorb pressures and remain unperturbed by the situations around him/her. You can realize you have now matured by looking for following signs:
成熟是一種狀態，當你突然意識到周圍發生的一切，能夠理解這些事情背後的緣由，不會因結果得意洋洋抑或一蹶不振，你就成熟了。你已經能夠化解壓力，不被周圍的環境所幹擾。看看下面的信號判斷一下自己成熟沒有吧：

1. You listen more and talk less
多聽少說

When we realize as human beings we are built to hear more (because we have two ears) and speak less (we have one mouth/tongue); we gain more information and whatever we speak will be based on substantial reasoning. This will provide a glimpse of a thinking individual/rational person to the audience. Thus you shall be perceived more seriously, and in turn this will add to your confidence. It is the first sign of you becoming a more matured individual than what you were before.
當我們意識到作爲人，我們需要多聽（因爲有兩個耳朵）少說（只有一張嘴/一根舌頭），我們就能獲得更多的信息，說出的話也能基於靠譜的推斷，這會讓聽衆覺得這個人很有思想和邏輯性。這樣你就會被認爲是個更靠譜正經的人，同時還能增加自己的自信。這可以當成是你和以前相比變得成熟的第一個標誌。

2. You do not shy away from responsibilities
你不再羞於承擔責任

As individuals we play a variety of roles in our societal set up. Be it for our family, our community, our friends, our country or for the human race in general. Additionally, we, being the highly successful species on Earth, should also be responsible for other species of this planet, as well as for sustaining the planet for future life forms. When you think in these terms, you behave in a more responsible manner. You not only perform your duties for your family or country, you also take care of mother earth. This makes you a matured individual on this planet.
作爲個人，我們在社交圈裏承擔着各式各樣的角色，包括家庭、社區，朋友們、國家甚至於人類這個大圈子。除此之外，我們作爲地球上的最高級生物，也需要對其他物種負責，爲了未來的生命框架保護這個地球的和諧發展。當你這樣去思考問題，其實也就變得更加負責任了。你不僅在家庭或國家中承擔了你的職責，你還照顧到了我們的地球母親。這會讓你成爲更加成熟的人。

3. You are less argumentative and more accommodating
你不再那麼好辯

There are times when you think you are right in an argument but by winning an argument you may lose a friend. So, it may be advisable to refrain from arguing too much at these times. Quite often, when things are normal, the other person with whom there was an argument may realize your point of view, or it is also possible you understand his/her perspective better. For, just because someone is not agreeing to you, does not mean he/she is wrong. By arguing less, you are providing the required space and prestige to others, and at the same time you are buying more time for yourself to look at the other’s argument from another angle. And additionally, you command more respect from others. This shows you are now a matured individual.
有時你會覺得自己在辯論中是正確的，但如果贏得了辯論可能會失去朋友。所以最聰明的做法莫過於在此刻避免過多的爭論。更多時候，如果不是什麼大事，那個有自己觀點的人也許會了解你的想法，或者你也可能更好的瞭解ta的立場。所以，別人不贊同你，並不代表ta就是錯的。少辯論，也給別人提供了必須的空間和威望，同時你也能給自己爭取更多時間來從別的角度審視別人的觀點。除此之外，你還能從他人身上獲得更多的尊重。這也能表明你變得更加成熟了。

4. You enjoy each season
你享受每個季節

Most of us have a likening for either summer or winter or spring or rains. That’s fine. But there is no need to get irritated whenever your favorite season has been replaced by another one. There is a cycle of seasons and life forms adapt to that. No one can control seasonal cycles and no one should control them. So if you are enjoying changes in season, however abrupt they might seem, you have grown into a matured individual.
大部分人都會更喜歡夏天或冬天或春天或雨季。這個沒啥，但自己最愛的季節過去了也沒必要感到惱火。季節的輪替就是這樣，我們生命早已習慣如此。沒有人可以控制季節的循環也不能去控制。所以如果你很享受季節的變換，不管變得多麼突然，你已經變得更成熟了。

5. You wear a smile on your face
臉上帶着微笑

Life is a topsy-turvy event. It doesn’t matter how hard scientists/researchers try to predict it, it remains unpredictable. You plan for today in the morning, and by the afternoon you have to modify it to accommodate something unplanned. Whatever the situation may be, wearing a smile has a positive impact on your body and mind. So, if you are being found mostly with a smile, you should consider this as a sign of getting matured.
生活總是出其不意的。不管科學家/研究員多麼努力的想去預言，還是無法確切估計。你早上做了今天的計劃，下午有可能就需要爲一些未知事件修改計劃。不論情況如何，都帶着微笑，這樣能給身體和精神帶來積極的影響。所以，如果你總是帶着微笑，也可以看成是成熟的標誌。6. You love children and elders
你尊老愛幼

Most of us like to hangout with friends. Most of these friends are of the same age group. However, if you like to spend time with children and older people, you should consider yourself a mature individual. Quite often, spending time with people who are not in your age bracket helps you visualize life in an entirely different manner. These moments, later on, shall be counted in your experiences.
大部分人都喜歡和朋友泡在一起。我們大多數的朋友都是同齡人。然而，如果你願意花時間和小孩老人們在一起，你就成熟了。大部分時候，花時間和不同年齡段的人在一起能幫你更好的以全然不同的方式看待生活。這些時刻，不久之後都會成爲你的閱歷。

7. You save more than what you expend
你存的比花的多

This one does not need any detail explanation. Saving more than the expenditures will itself lend credibility to your maturity status.
這一條不需要什麼具體的解釋了。存的比花的多毫無疑問是你成熟的最可靠標誌。

8. You indulge more in reading
你更多的時間花在閱讀上

To be updated is of utmost priority in today’s knowledge-driven society. And probably one of the best ways to get informed is to read. If you are spending more time reading, this indicates you are serious about your business which is a sign of maturity.
在當今這樣知識驅動的社會，適應是排在首位的。要想獲得更多的信息，最好的方式莫過於閱讀。如果你更多的時間花在閱讀上，這就意味着你對自己的事情更加上心，也是成熟的標誌。

9. You take care of yourself as well as others
你照顧自己和別人

In the run of life, you may give less importance to yourself relative to your family members. However, you must realize you are no less significant. Therefore, you must take out time for yourself, and take care of your body and mind. This will, in turn lead to better performance in your duties which will render you as a responsible and matured person.
在生命的長河中，也許你覺得家人會比自己更加重要。然而，你必須意識到你是獨一無二的。因此，你必須抽出時間來照顧自己，不僅身體還有思想。這能夠反過來促進你更好地履行責任，讓你成爲有責任心的成年人。

你在看這篇文字，這個行爲本身就代表你想要變得更加成熟。也許你想要承擔責任，想知道自己存在的意義。因此，你在尋求那些要成爲有責任成熟公民需要知道/做哪些事。這本身就說明你正在走向成熟。

成熟帶來的是責任。責任帶來的是感悟。感悟帶來的是自信。所以自信的向這個世界展示你已經成熟了吧。
