Early manhood
pp. 147-176
Abstrakt
When the individual becomes a full adult, which he does between the ages of 26 and 35, what this means is that his organic potentialities have reached their fullest possible development, and he himself has officially now taken charge. What confronts him from this stage onward is the spectacle of an ego-object amid objects, personal and material, pursuing its aim in such ways as the capabilities of the environment together with such chance accidents favorable and unfavorable which may be encountered permit. It is possible for him at times to attain to the state of self-consciousness, to see himself aimed at a distant target and working his way toward it as efficiently as possible under the varied circumstances which prevail.
