你是否正在做将来会后悔的事情?

Confusing a job and a career

混淆职业与事业的概念


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.

每个人的20多岁事情几乎都是事业发展的关键时期。许多Quora答主都认为,如果你无法认清自己的某项职业行动的价值,你大可以缓一缓。对于有些人来说这就意味着过度投资于付清租房费用,但他们却并不为之感到振奋。对于别人来说则意味着无法保证他们当前的职业或兴趣能否或应否培养起一份真正的事业。

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.

你可以后悔自己对工作的投入不足或过度,但你会学到其中的经验。但你不会后悔的是能够看清自己的长期职业发展轨道,以及今天的努力能否为你的目标服务,无论是什么目标。
