你是否正在做將來會后悔的事情?
Confusing a job and a career
混淆職業與事業的概念
Your 20s are almost always a decade of professional growth. Several respondents cautioned that you can slow that process if you're not clear with yourself about the value of any particular gig. For some folks that means investing too much in a rent-paying gig they aren't passionate about. For others it means failing to see to it that their current job orinterest could and should be built into a real career.
每個人的20多歲事情幾乎都是事業發展的關鍵時期。許多Quora答主都認為,如果你無法認清自己的某項職業行動的價值,你大可以緩一緩。對于有些人來說這就意味著過度投資于付清租房費用,但他們卻并不為之感到振奮。對于別人來說則意味著無法保證他們當前的職業或興趣能否或應否培養起一份真正的事業。
You can regret either under- or overinvesting in your work, the lesson seems to be. What you won't regret is being clear-eyed about your longer-term professional trajectory and whether today's effort is serving your goals, whatever they may be.
你可以后悔自己對工作的投入不足或過度,但你會學到其中的經驗。但你不會后悔的是能夠看清自己的長期職業發展軌道,以及今天的努力能否為你的目標服務,無論是什么目標。
