今日清晨聽了這篇演講,我想明白了三件事情,也就是這篇演講的中心內容,po出來和大家分享。
main idea:
First,I told Emma forget about having identity crisis and get some identity capital.By get identity capital,I mean do something that add your value to who you are.
(學習知識來增加自己的資本,而不是整天自怨自艾什么都不做)
Second,?I told Emma that urban tribe is overrated.New things come from what are called our weak ties,our friends of friends of friends.
(不要高估你的朋友圈,新事物來自我們所謂的弱關系,朋友的朋友)
Last but not least,I told Emma the time to start picking your family is now.Picking your family is about consciously choosing who and what you want,rather than just making it work or killing time with whoever happen to be choosing you.
(選擇你的家庭是有意識地去選擇你想要的人和事,而不是為了應付或者消磨時光,才和一個正好選擇你的人在一起。)
To sum up,Thrity is not the new 20,so claim your adulthood,get some identity capital,use your weak ties,pick your family.
