You and I may have a secret, internal timetable, to measure yourself: it is best to get a degree, get married, or climb to a certain position at work at a certain age; however, this dream timetable has not made any progress for many years. Stanford University conducted a study of people between the ages of 25 and 94 in 2018 and found that all generations believe that around 26 years old is the appropriate marriage age and 27 years old to buy a house, while 28 years old is the time to form a family.
What if life is not like? To be burdened with learning and being reluctant to keep rising house prices, many millennials are unable to buy their first homes. Some people in their 60s are in better health than their parents are at their 40s; everything from Botox to fertility treatment is a malfunctioning middle-aged plan.
{9 Feintzeig said that it is better to follow your own rhythm than to follow other people's timelines to complete major events in life.Florida sales consultant Nikki Ivey said that most people think they should go to college after graduating from high school, but she used to be a "teen mom" and only got a college degree at the age of 28. Over the years, she always felt that she was an outsider and a failure. Seeing people of the same age keep moving forward in school and career, she thought she would never follow her.
Evi missed a dream life milestone after another: she had imagined: she bought a house from 30 to 6 digits and 35 digits. Finally she reached a milestone: she became a senior executive at a company, but she didn't like this job, thinking about laughing at the dining table with her children. Finally, Ai Weilong went to work and questioned the meaning of setting these milestones. She asked herself, do you still want these? Whose timetable should I follow?
Late bloomerLaura Carstensen, director of the Center for Chief of Staff University of Stanford University, said that more and more years have been pushing for a full-time job and saving time for retirement; this delay has brought some negative effects. Giving up buying a house may miss the opportunity to own assets, delaying retirement and savings may face financial insecurity; while having limited time for childbirth, the body will also age.
Castrensen said, but our lives are also prolonging. In the past century, we have been 30 years longer. With it rushing to complete all major events in life and suspending in the last stage of life, why not disperse these milestones? She said some people may be considered to be backward, and in fact they are just doing what they should do.
When he was a public designer in New York, Danielle Ponder often searched on Google: Has anyone succeeded after he was 35? She has the talent for singing and chose the law because she is passionate about criminal justice and hopes for a stable job. She would perform in the empty papers in court rather than be completely devoted to the music.
Loude said that she kept pushing her music dream backwards, and as she grew older, her dreams became smaller. On the last day of 2021, five days before her 40th birthday, she tried again. This time she went to work during the day, allowing her first personal album to be born, her face exposed on TV, and her performance tickets were sold out.
Loude was shocked and grateful for her success. She said that she didn't know whether she could withstand these situations at the age of 19. She was not ashamed of her sense of security at the age of 10, and she would definitely not be able to deal with the pressure of becoming a public figure.
