Explanation:

in the year 1977 a graduate of psychology from Yale University developed a comprehensive theory on man's development to adulthood, the underlying pattern of an individual's life at every point in time was the major focus of the theory, the theory states that a person's life is shaped majorly by their social and immediate environment and it involves his family and work with other variables like religion and his racial inclination.

In his theory "Levinson's Seasons of a Man's Life" there are two key concepts:

1) the Stable Period - This is the period when a person makes crucial choices in life.

2) the Transitional Period - This is the end of a person's stage to which a new one is expected to begin. Life during these transitions periods can be either rocky or smooth, good or bad, but the quality and significance of one’s life commitments often change between the starting and the ending of a period.
