A few random observations.

When I was 14 I wanted to play guitar and change the world. Over the years I grew away from these childish aspirations.

I started feeling "grown up" in my mid-30s when I stopped blaming my parents for who I was, when being me became just my responsibility.

Now, at the age of 49, my priorities are to play guitar and to work for change in the world. It took me a while to become so mature.

A lot of adults IMO are in touch with their inner consumers, or maybe their inner accountants.
