The years of our twenties are extremely significant. This is a crucial period in our lives, and we must make the most of it. What we do and decide during our twenties can have a deep and lasting influence on our future.
Particularly in terms of love, we shouldn't just be with someone casually. Instead, we should be intentional and thoughtful when choosing the person we want to build a life with.
Our twenties are when we truly start to take control of our lives. It's the time when we become more independent and start making choices that are entirely our own. From this stage on, we are the ones shaping our own paths.
Claiming your 20s is one of the simplest, yet most transformative, things you can do for work, for love, for your happiness, maybe even for the world.
把握好你的二十多岁,是你能为自己的事业、爱情、幸福,甚至可能为这个世界做的最简单却又最具变革性的事情之一。
The best time to work on your marriage is before you have one, and that means being as intentional with love as you are with work.
在你结婚之前,就是改善你未来婚姻状况的最佳时机,这意味着你要像对待工作一样,用心经营爱情。
intentionally /ɪnˈtenʃənəli/adv. 故意地;有意地
Picking your family is about consciously choosing who and what you want rather than just making it work or killing time with whoever happens to be choosing you.
慎重选择与你组建家庭的人,意味着要有意识地去挑选你真正渴望相伴的人以及你向往的生活模式,而不是仅仅为了过日子而将就,或者随意地与那些偶然选择了你的人虚度光阴。
consciously /ˈkɒnʃəsli/adv. 有意识地;自觉地
Thirty is not the new 20, so claim your adulthood, get some identity capital, use your weak ties, pick your family.
三十岁不同于二十岁,青春已逝,所以要勇敢肩负起成年人的责任,积累一些能提升自身价值的资本,巧妙利用那些不太紧密的社交关系,慎重选择与你相伴的家人。
capital /ˈkæpɪtl/n. 资本;资金;财富
claim one's adulthood 承担起某人的成年责任
weak ties 弱关系(指不太紧密的社交关系)
我们的人生,从这个阶段开始真正有我们自己主宰。
