3 Ways Living Longer Will Impact Your Career
長壽影響你職業生涯的三個方面
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.
根據勞動局的數據，全美在職人員的平均年齡是37.1歲，到2022年，則有可能上升到到42.6歲。看到這個數字，你也許會對自己將在工作崗位多鞠躬盡瘁幾年感到恐懼，但事實並非如此。下面幾條具體說明了長壽對你職業生涯的影響以及爲什麼你要充分利用工作和生命中額外的時間。
1. Multiple Careers
1.多種職業選擇
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.
長壽的好處之一就是有更多時間來選擇最適合自己的行業。長壽的工作者不必爲第一份工作就入錯行而無其他選擇餘地而過分擔憂。
2. Longer Lifespan = Longer Careers
2.長壽=更長的職業生涯
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.
長壽可以給我們提供更多的薪水、活躍的身心以及足夠的存款來保證我們退休後環遊世界的大計。聽起來挺棒吧？
3. Don't Worry, Be Happy
3.不要憂慮，學會開心
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.
變老也許很可怕，但是充實的職業生涯和幸福人生，會讓你發現退休階段將成爲人生中美好的時光。
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.
長壽使你40歲之後還能在職業生涯上“重新返場”，勇登巔峯。所以，好好抓住這個時機，並充分利用職業生涯中早期階段學習，變成熟，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.
希望看過這幾點，你會對自己有更多時間來找尋最佳職業方向而感到欣慰，也不因最初選錯道路而感到擔憂。要記住，由於你的工齡會很長，獲取成功的關鍵還是要找到令你開心愉悅的工作。
