篇章:30岁前应在职场经历的15件事 Oliver Sacks, a neurology professor at NYU, shares the truth about life as an octogenarian in a piece for The New York Times. In the column, Sacks writes: 奥利弗赛克斯是纽约大学的一名神经病学家,她在《纽约时报》上发表了一篇文章,谈论耄耋之年的生活。在专栏里她这样写道: I do not think of old age as an ever grimmer time that one must somehow make the best of, but as a time of leisure and freedom, freed from the factitious urgencies of earlier days, free to explore whatever I wish, and to bind the thoughts and feelings of a lifetime together。 我不认为人老年的时候要比以往更加抓紧利用时间,而是该享受休闲和自由,从过去那种应付急事儿的匆忙中解脱出来,去探索自己憧憬的领域,将一生的思考和觉悟做个整合。 Isnt that beautiful? 很美好,不是吗? An 80th birthday is cause for celebration, but along the way other milestones matter too. For instance, the big 30. 80岁确实值得庆祝,但是人生中还有其他的里程碑,比如而立之年。 By the time we say goodbye to our twenties, what should we have experienced in our careers? 当30岁来临的时候,我们应该已经在职场中经历哪些事呢? |
