A Sense Of Not Measuring Up

症状一:什么都没搞定的挫败感

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岁了,似乎意味着你的成年人生活正式到来,你或许有种迫切感要把一切该做好的事情尽快做好。

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,你就想像你母亲那样在30岁时把结婚生子都完成了,至少也要开始行动起来。

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。”

试着不要给自己压力,让自己在30岁一到就把这些事都挨个地完成。你生活中最重要的事情是知道自己到底要什么,并且朝着自己的目标努力,而不是“把一切做完”。
