Don’t you see you are bound to have a midlife crisis after forty? Why? Because of the ways you have gone through your youth. The most wasteful period of one’s life is often the time between twenty and thirty-five.
You are at the peak of your powers between, let’s say, twenty and forty. And if you don’t utilize that time, then post forty obviously you will have a crisis. Forty to sixty you will spend battling that crisis, and after sixty you aren’t even battling—you are just regretting and waiting for death.
