"The time will never come that you will reach your idea of maturity..."

The time will never come that you will reach your idea of maturity. It is an endless process. So whether you feel qualified or not, all you have to do is accept it and do your best with wholeheartedness. Make every possible effort to meet this position with modesty and humility. The position is in a bigger scale than the person you take yourself to be. So set yourself out in the big scale of the world. Before you are conscious of it, your life is deepened by the position. In that way you develop very naturally.
