焦慮與困惑

A Sense Of Not Measuring Up

癥狀一：什么都沒搞定的挫敗感

Now that your adult life seems to have officially arrived, you may be feeling the need to get it together, fast.

快步入30歲了，似乎意味著你的成年人生活正式到來，你或許有種迫切感要把一切該做好的事情盡快做好。

Suddenly, it might seem that if you want marriage and children -- things that your mother may have had at 30 -- you'd better start finding them now。

突然，你就想像你母親那樣在30歲時把結婚生子都完成了，至少也要開始行動起來。

Try not to stress about getting all your ducks in a row by the time you hit 30 -- the most important thing at this point in your life is to figure out what you want and be working towards it, not to already“have it all?！?/p>

試著不要給自己壓力，讓自己在30歲一到就把這些事都挨個地完成。你生活中最重要的事情是知道自己到底要什么，并且朝著自己的目標努力，而不是“把一切做完”。
