年轻的世界,充满无限的可能性、机遇和挑战,在为生活为梦想为各种目标匆匆前行的同时,你会对真正重要的东西视而不见么?本文为大家带来年轻人修炼自身的五大盲区。从今天开始,带着它们上路吧!

1. Money Does Not Equal Happiness
1.金钱不等于快乐

Do what you love. Find something that you enjoy doing and then search for a way to incorporate that joy and happiness into a career.
做你热爱的事情。找到你喜欢做的事情,然后寻找能够把这种喜悦和快乐发展成职业的方式。

Too often we search for a job with a salary in the 6 digit category, and then from that point we begin to look for a career that might be viewed as bearable.
太多时候,我们在找一份在六位数范围的工作,然后从那儿开始找一个还过得去的职业。

It is very difficult to become successful at something that you do not enjoy doing.
想把自己不喜欢的做的事情做成功是困难重重的。

2. Education is Ongoing
2.教育无止尽

Your education is not simply a means to an end. It is not meant to stop after four, or six, or eight years, and it most certainly does not make you wise.
教育不是达到目标的方式。教育不是四年,或者六年或者八年之后就要停止的,而且教育本身当然不会让你变得明智。

Education is an ongoing process. It’s not just gathering information, but it is digesting knowledge and being able to understand it fully.
教育是一个持续的过程。这不只是收集信息,而是要消化知识且能够充分地理解。

A Global MBA is useless if, after years of hard work, you enter the workforce and then cease to continue educational processes.
如果你在进入职场后停止了教育过程,那么全球化的工商管理硕士将会毫无用处。

In a world where technology and information is growing at an increasingly rapid pace, we must be introspective and humble enough to acknowledge that we must continue to learn as our lives progress in order to maintain relevancy in the workforce.
在科技信息飞速发展的当今世界,我们必须做到自省和足够谦逊地承认—想要在职场立足,就必须终身学习。


3. Your Body is Important
3.你的身体是重要的

Wake up, go to work, sit at a desk, leave work, sit on the couch, go to bed, rinse and repeat. How often does this become our default schedule?
起床,去上班,坐在办公桌前,下班,窝在沙发上,上床睡觉,再重复这一流程。有多少次,这成了我们默认的流程?

Physical well-being has been scientifically proven to be correlated with cognitive awareness and performance. Working out, either at the gym or on the field, in a yoga class or in the pool, is vital to not only maintaining a healthy body, but a healthy mind as well. Drop the soda and turn off the TV, grab water and hit the track. Make time for your body.
科学证明身体健康与认知意识和表现相关。去锻炼身体,无论是在健身房,室外,瑜伽课上或者游泳池里。这不仅对保持身体健康,而且对头脑健康都是至关重要的。放下碳酸饮料,关掉电视,拿上水去跑道。为自己的身体腾出时间。


4. EQ Not Just IQ
4.不仅是智商,还有情商

You need to know how to work in a team with other people. Too often students are so heavily focused on learning what’s in the books at the cost of learning interpersonal skills, which can be more important in a work environment.
你需要知道怎样和其他人一起团队工作。学生们通常都高度注重学习书本知识,耽误了人际交往能力的学习,而后者在工作中更为重要。

I was talking with a colleague the other day who said, “I would rather work with Team X on a project and take two weeks, than work on Team Y and get it done in one week.” To find success you must have the capability to effectively work with others and promote a positive working environment.
有天我在和一个同事交谈时,他讲道,“我宁愿和X组一起合作项目花两个星期,也不愿意和Y组一起合作在一个星期内完成。”想要成功,你必须有能力和他人一起有效地工作,同时创造出一个积极的工作环境。


5. Make a Difference­ and Give Back
5.有所作为,有所回报

If you aren’t making a positive difference in the lives of others, then you need to reevaluate the purpose of what you are doing. The ultimate goal of business is to improve the lives of those in society. Use your talents and resources to make the world a better place, one small act at a time.
如果你没有给他人的生活带来积极的影响,那么你需要重新评估自己所做事情的目的。生意的最终目标是提升社会中人的生活。每次做一点,用你的才能和资源让世界变得更好。
