Not Spending Time With Parents

没有花时间多陪陪父母

One common regret that many people in their 30s have is not spending time with their parents while they are young enough to actively¹ participate. Simple pleasures like taking a walk, traveling, or even having a conversation may be harder to come by once your parents age.

30多岁的人都有这么一个遗憾：没有趁父母年轻、还能多走动的时候多陪陪他们。一旦父母年纪大了，散步、旅行、甚至是聊天等简单的趣事都会变得困难。

Putting Work First

工作放第一位

Something to keep in your mind in your 30s: if you put work first, you're going to regret it. Spend time with people you love, because those are precious moments that money and moving up the ladder can't beat.

30多岁时一定要记住：如果你凡事以工作为重，那你势必会后悔。花时间陪陪爱的人，因为这些珍贵的时光是金钱、升职所不能给予的。

Spending Time on Negativity

把时间浪费在负能量的人身上

And you thought those negative people would disappear from your life in your 30s. Nope, there may be some hanging around, so don't waste time on them. Watch out for people who don't make you feel good about yourself, and reevaluate your relationships with them. Be careful of spending time on negative thoughts and issues that you have no control over. Just. Let. It. Go.

你还以为30多岁的时候，这些负能量的人会从你的生活中消失。不会的，你身边还是会有这样的人，所以不要把时间浪费在他们身上。留心那些让你感觉糟糕的人，重新审视自己与他们的关系。注意不要把时间浪费在一些消极的事情，或你无法掌控的问题上面。随它吧。

Thinking Your 30s Were Old

觉得30岁就老了

"I'm too old for this!" may be a common phrase you use in your 30s. You know what? You're not. And I bet people in their 50s and 60s will agree. The world was your oyster² in your 20s, and it still is. Take a chance, live, and enjoy life as the young'un you are, and never lose that child in you.

"我年纪大了，不适合干这个！"也许是你30多岁时常说的一句话。你知道吗？你并不老。我相信五六十岁的人也会同意我的说法。20多岁时，你的世界充满梦。现在也是啊。抓住机会，像年轻时那样恣意潇洒的活着，不要失去内心的童真。

Not Putting Yourself First

不以自己为第一位

Maybe you're putting everyone else first in your life but you. Snap³ out of it! Know that once you put yourself first, everything else can fall into place. Putting your needs first will make you a happy camper, which will result in better relationships - a win-win. When you take care of yourself, you'll have fewer regrets in your 30s. You probably won't regret that as much if you had focused on your needs and chased your dreams as well.

也许你把生活中除了你之外的所有人都置于首位。快别这么做了！你要知道，凡事以自己为第一位后，所有一切都会步入正轨。以自己的需求为重会让你开开心心的，也会带来更好的人际关系--双赢啊。照顾好自己，30岁的你就会少些遗憾。如果你专注自己的需求、追求自己的梦想，也许你并不会感到遗憾。

Not Taking Better Care of Your Body

没有照顾好自己的身体

It's quite the paradox⁴ - you say you're too old for something, and yet you still keep the junk-food-fueled and anti-exercise habits of the younger you.

这非常矛盾--你说自己太老了不适合做某事，但你却仍然在吃垃圾食品、不运动，和年轻时候的你一样。
