In a video I am not able to find at the moment (it might be this one – Despre bătrînețe: întrebări, neliniști, bucurii – YouTube), perhaps between Andrei Pleșu and Gabriel Liiceanu, one of them (I think) spoke about a quote: „After a certain age, you’re responsible for the way you look”.
I find it surprisingly true. What a person does for a job and has a habit of thinking about influences their looks.
After the age of 30, you should control your emotions and body (how you look). You are also responsible for your internal states, you can no longer blame your parents, and how you look on the outside.
The growth is constant from year to year, which is surprising. You know a man at 20, at 30 he’s a middle manager, at 40 he has a big position. You’ve known him since he took office, now he’s managing others.
