Take that too heart. We've all been there. Some of us take it for granted since it happened a lot younger. Think of this as learning to drive, or learning to swim for the first time at your age.

I used to teach swimming. The young kids had no fear, but would never listen to what you said. The adults had fear. They were rational. But they would listen.

Understands this, and live it.
