Age does not always bring wisdom. Getting to be older doesn’t really mean that you have lived any kind of a life. You could be 60 years old and never have done anything interesting in your life. Meanwhile, you could be 20 years old and be on top of the world. When it comes to giving advice, you have to have a relationship first. You wouldn’t stop a random person on the sidewalk and tell them how they should live their life, would you? You wouldn’t start randomly talking to somebody on an elevator ride telling them about why they should watch what they eat. That’s a great way to get jammed up.
For starters, it is socially awkward. Secondly, who are you to this person? Third of all, just because you’re older doesn’t mean you’re any wiser. Older people make mistakes all the time. And by that logic, senior citizens would be the sharpest tools in the pack. But how sad it is that so many senior citizens get scammed out of their financial information on a daily basis by scammers on the phone. The bottom line is that age is no more a marker for wisdom than height, weight, hair color, etc. There is no real connection between being older and being wiser. Maybe in the parlance of our times, trends like to hang their hat on this theme but that is not always the case. And one place where we have seen this quite evidently not be the case is in the subject of today’s article.
Tim Wilkins thought it was his place to give Sam Sulek advice on how to be a bodybuilder. And he didn’t do it on a phone call or an email, but he did it in a bodybuilding program format. And let me tell you, I think that he really regretted that move almost instantly. But let’s talk about it.
