3 Ways Living Longer Will Impact Your Career
长寿影响你职业生涯的三个方面
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median age of the American workforce is 37.1 and it is expected to increase to 42.6 by 2022. You might be dreading the fact that you'll have to work even a day longer than you have to, but that shouldn't be the case. Here are three ways a longer life expectancy will impact your career, and why you should take advantage of the extra time you have in your career and in your lifetime.
根据劳动局的数据，全美在职人员的平均年龄是37.1岁，到2022年，则有可能上升到到42.6岁。看到这个数字，你也许会对自己将在工作岗位多鞠躬尽瘁几年感到恐惧，但事实并非如此。下面几条具体说明了长寿对你职业生涯的影响以及为什么你要充分利用工作和生命中额外的时间。
1. Multiple Careers
1.多种职业选择
The good thing about living a longer life is that you have more time to figure out what career suits you best. With a longer life expectancy, workers won't feel so hard-pressed to find the perfect career the first time around.
长寿的好处之一就是有更多时间来选择最适合自己的行业。长寿的工作者不必为第一份工作就入错行而无其他选择余地而过分担忧。
2. Longer Lifespan = Longer Careers
2.长寿=更长的职业生涯
Longer life expectancies will allow more time for aging workers to pull in a decent paycheck, stay active physically and mentally, save up money, and then travel the world later on in life. Seems like a sweet deal to us.
长寿可以给我们提供更多的薪水、活跃的身心以及足够的存款来保证我们退休后环游世界的大计。听起来挺棒吧？
3. Don't Worry, Be Happy
3.不要忧虑，学会开心
Growing older might be a scary thing, but if you choose a fulfilling career and have an enjoyable life, then growing into retirement will be an enjoyable phase of your life.
变老也许很可怕，但是充实的职业生涯和幸福人生，会让你发现退休阶段将成为人生中美好的时光。
Your career prime will be your "bouncing back" days after 40 years of age, so take advantage of that fact and utilize your early employment years to learn, mature, and expand your skills.
长寿使你40岁之后还能在职业生涯上“重新返场”，勇登巅峰。所以，好好抓住这个时机，并充分利用职业生涯中早期阶段学习，变成熟，拓展你的技能。
Hopefully you find some comfort in knowing that you have a bit more time to figure your career out and that you don't have to get it right the first time. The important thing to remember is that, because you'll be working longer, the key to success (and happiness) is finding a career that makes you happy and is enjoyable.
希望看过这几点，你会对自己有更多时间来找寻最佳职业方向而感到欣慰，也不因最初选错道路而感到担忧。要记住，由于你的工龄会很长，获取成功的关键还是要找到令你开心愉悦的工作。
