Years of life lived bring wisdom and resilience.
I am glad for the years of my life. They have made me what I am today – confident, strong, and wise. When I was young, I had none of these qualities, but as the years passed, my experiences developed these strengths.

Each experience brings me wisdom. I learn from both my successes and mistakes. Years of such bits of knowledge bring a wisdom that only thousands of experiences can bring.
I find I am so much more resilient to life’s ups and downs than I was when I was younger. Overcoming challenges and getting through hard times to see the light at the other end has provided a confidence that I can make it through any difficulty.
I also accept that challenges are simply a natural part of life, so they no longer shock or upset me as they may have done in my younger years. I strive to take action to improve my situation as I can, and then I continue to move forward without second thoughts.
I also have the wisdom to determine if something is truly important in the long run. I ask myself, “Will this make a difference five years from now?” My years of experience make answering this question a lot easier!
As a consequence of my years of experience, I am also calmer and more optimistic that things will turn out for the best.
Today, I plan to let the wisdom from my years of experience guide me in my decisions.
Self-Reflection Questions:
1. Do I realize and rely on the wisdom I’ve gained from my years of life lived?
2. How have my experiences made me more resilient?
3. Do I appreciate the years of my life?
