~26 years old is really just the beginning, since the brain isn't even fully developed until that age. The hardware is now complete, so then it becomes more about regularly updating your software(i.e. challenging your knowledge and skills with new information, and not believing you are past your peak). The great thing about having fairly fixed hardware, and hardware that is pretty much like everyone else's, is that you are left with the choice of either maintaining the learning attitude of a child or settling into a role you think you are destined for, effectively closing all sorts of doors willingly. I choose to not think about my age or think of myself as an "adult". I sometimes forget how old I am. I kind of like it.
