20s are always awesome. You are young and free, with your whole life ahead of you. You have the choice to achieve anything you want, and are free from many of the responsibilities that come with being in your thirties. However, usually only when you’ve turned 30, you realized there’re much you haven’t done yet. And it’s harder to achieve them once you enter another stage of life.
These are the things I wish I did in my 20s. If you’re in your 20s, maybe it’s time to take action right now.
20多岁的时光总是很精彩。有大把的美好时光在前方等着年轻自由的你。你可以选择实现任何想要实现的目标,并且没有30来岁时肩负的责任。然而,通常当你真正步入30岁门槛时,才发现还有那么多没做过的事情。一旦踏入生活的另一个阶段,实现年少时的目标会变得更加困难。
下面的这些事我真希望在20多岁时都做过啊!如果你正处于20多岁,也许现在正是采取行动的时候。
1. Travel to a farther country
In my 20s, when I still have time and freedom, I didn’t travel to many countries that are far far away. Because I didn’t have much money. Now I have some money, but I don’t have enough time. If I can go back, I’d find more ways to earn the money or any ways that can support my traveling.
1. 去比较遥远的国度旅行
在我20多岁时,那时我仍然有时间,也很自由,但是没有去过许多遥远的国家。因为我没有足够的金钱。现在,我有钱了,但是又没有足够的时间。如果我能重回20岁,我会寻找更多挣钱的方法或是用任何手段支持我的旅行费用。
2. Reject people who don’t deserve a position in my life
There’re some people who aren’t meant to stay in your life. At that time I was too afraid to hurt others and always hesitate to reject people. At the end, everyone hurts, or everyone wastes their time.
2. 拒绝在你的生活中不那么重要的人
确实有些人并不打算待在你的生活之中。20多岁时,我特别害怕伤害别人,所以在拒绝别人的时候很犹豫。后来,我们都受了伤,或者说我们都在浪费时间。
3. Apply for my dream job even if it’s low-paid
When you’re still young, never let anything stop you. Looking back, I was worried about too many unimportant things that told me not to go for what I really like.
3. 即便低薪也要申请梦想中的工作
还年轻的时候,千万不要让任何事情阻碍你。现在回想起来,当时的我过于担心那些不重要的事情,它们在告诉我不要去追寻自己想要的东西。
4. Travel alone
The world is beautiful, and there is so much of it to see. Travelling alone means you get to do everything that you want to do, and it will make you more independent and self-reliant.
4. 独自旅行
世界很美好,有太多的美景要去看看。独自旅行意味着你可以去做一切自己想做的事情,这使你更加独立,变得自力更生。
5. Learn to cook a few healthy meals
Take-out food is expensive (and normally pretty unhealthy). Learn to cook a few meals that you love so you can always eat something delicious and healthy. What you ate would be reflected by your body in your 30s.
5. 学会烹饪健康的事物
外卖很贵(通常相当不健康)。学习做你爱吃的事物,这样你就总能吃到可口健康的饭菜。30多岁的时候,你的身体就会反映出你之前吃的东西健康与否了。
6. Travel with friends
Have an amazing time in another country with your best friends. It will be one of the best times of your life, and you will never forget the memories. When you enter your 30s, it’ll become much harder to find a time to just see your friends.
6.与朋友同游
与最好的朋友在另一个国家度过愉快的时光,这将会是你一辈子最美好的事情,你永远不会忘记这段记忆。当你30岁时,仅是去看看朋友就变得异常困难。
7. Let go of grudges
The past is in the past – they are only weighing you down.
7. 放下怨恨
过去就让它过去吧!—它们只会击垮你!
8. Spend more time with my parents – and forgive them
I used to be too hard on my parents. I thought they were not good enough. Remember that everyone makes mistakes, even your parents. Spend time with them and work on your relationship together.
8. 多陪陪父母—原谅他们
我曾经对父母太苛刻。我想过他们对我并不够好。请记住每个人都会犯错,甚至是你的父母。多花时间陪陪他们,共同维持你们之间的关系。
9. Ditch toxic relationships
Stop holding onto relationships that make you feel upset or stressed out. They will never change, and real friends don’t make you feel awful.
9. 放弃不好的人际关系
让你感到紧张不安的人,就不要和他维持关系了。他们不会改变,真正的朋友不会让你感到糟糕。
10. Talk to everyone (and anyone)
Small talk can lead to new opportunities and friendships.
10. 和每个人谈天(任何人)
简短的对话可以给你发掘新机会,认识新朋友。
11. Be honest with myself and others
Your life will be much happier and less stressful – lying always complicates things.
11. 诚实对待自己和他人
你的生活将会变得更加幸福,压力少少—欺骗把事情复杂化。
12. Find a type of exercise that I enjoy
Exercise is a lot of fun if you are doing something that you actually enjoy. There are lots of options out there; yoga, basketball, soccer, hiking, walking and so no.
12. 找到自己喜欢的一项运动
如果你在做自己真正喜欢的东西,运动趣味多多哦。有许多选择,比如瑜伽,篮球,足球,登山,散步等。
13. Brush and floss my teeth
You only get one set of teeth. Look after them every day!
13. 刷牙,用牙线清洁牙齿
你只拥有一口牙,每天都要照顾好它们哦!
14. Take more risks
Not just one risk – take as many as you want! Life is very limiting when you are motivated by fear instead of passion.
14. 多冒险
不是冒一次险—而是尽可能多地去冒险!当你充满恐惧而不是激情的时候,生活就很受限!
15. Stay up all night having fun with my friends
As you get older, it will be harder to go without sleep. Make the most of it now by staying up late with your friends and having fun together. Go to a club, a bar or a concert and stay out until the sun comes up!
15. 熬夜与朋友们一起玩耍
随着年龄慢慢大起来,熬夜将变得更困难。充分利用好现在的资源,和朋友们一起玩到很晚。去俱乐部,酒吧或是演唱会,熬到第二天太阳升起来为止!
16. Be as busy as I can be
Staying busy means making memories and achieving goals. When you do nothing, nothing obviously happens as a result.
16. 尽最大可能忙碌
保持忙碌的状态意味着制造记忆,实现目标。当你啥都不做,那么很明显,最终什么都不会发生。
17. Make more new friends
Replace your toxic relationships with happy, fulfilling new friendships.
17. 交更多新朋友
放弃那些狐朋狗友,结交令你快乐且充实的朋友。
18. Start paying off my debt
Make your debt disappear in your twenties so you have the extra income in your thirties for other responsibilities.
18. 开始偿还我的债务
20来岁还清你的债务,这样你在30多岁的时候才会有额外的收入承担其他责任。
19. Spend a night under the stars
Camping is a lot of fun, and it’s awe-inspiring to take in the night sky.
19. 在星空下度过夜晚
露营非常有趣,尤其是在令人惊叹的夜空下。
20. Write a letter to an old friend
This is a sweet gesture that shows your friend how much you appreciate them, and they can treasure the letter forever. Sometimes it’s a small gesture that can keep your friendship forever.
20. 给老友写信
写信给老友是种甜蜜的姿态,告诉你的朋友你有多么欣赏他们,他们可能会永远珍藏信件。有时,小小的举动可以永久保鲜你们的友谊。
