如何度過四分之一的人生危機
Is there such a thing as a quarter life crisis and could it be the cause of you experiencing a lack of happiness and fulfilment in your life or career right now?
是否存在所謂的“四分之一人生危機”?它是否會導(dǎo)致你現(xiàn)在在生活或事業(yè)中缺乏幸福感和成就感?
According to popular psychology, a quarter life crisis is a crisis “involving anxiety over the direction and quality of one’s life” which is most commonly experienced in a period ranging from a person’s twenties up to their mid-thirties.[1] It tends to occur after we have finished our schooling and study, when we have settled into everyday life, often at major points or life changing events when we feel we are at a crossroads. We know something must change but we don’t know what or how to begin. It can feel confusing and lonely.
根據(jù)大眾心理學(xué),四分之一的人生危機是“對人生方向和生活質(zhì)量的焦慮”,最常見的經(jīng)歷是在一個人20多歲到35多歲之間。它往往發(fā)生在我們完成學(xué)業(yè)和學(xué)習(xí)之后,當我們?nèi)谌肴粘I钪?,當我們感到自己正處于一個十字路口時,它往往發(fā)生在人生的重要時刻或改變?nèi)松氖录?。我們知道有些事情必須改變,但我們不知道從何開始,如何開始。它會讓人感到困惑和孤獨。
The good news is this is quite a normal experience. With some insight and small steps, you can gain clarity and direction on a way forward.
好消息是,這是一個相當正常的經(jīng)歷。通過一些洞察力和小步驟,你可以在前進的道路上獲得清晰的方向。
Firstly, it’s important to realize you are not alone. LinkedIn surveyed thousands of 25 to 33 years olds; the data showed that 75% had experienced a quarter life crisis with the average age being 27.
首先,重要的是要意識到你并不孤單。LinkedIn調(diào)查了數(shù)千名25至33歲的年輕人;數(shù)據(jù)顯示75%的人經(jīng)歷過四分之一的人生危機,平均年齡為27歲。
