后悔备忘录-追求一份更有意义的职业

Pursuing¹ a more meaningful career

 

追求一份更有意义的职业

 

Many of us wish we had taken more career risks,opted for meaning over money, pursued² the career path we wanted instead of whatwe were expected to do or simply following the path that was laid out beforeus. How much better to have explored our options and pursued meaningful work inour twenties than to have spent 20 years doing something we don't love.

 

Life is good; don't misunderstand. Few of us walk around every day pining for our youth, at least I hope not, but we do occasionally³ look back with a wistful sigh and wish that we planned more, lived more, and stretched ourselves more when we had the freedom and energy to do so.
