事實(shí)上，在同一個領(lǐng)域、同一行業(yè)工作一輩子的想法已經(jīng)不現(xiàn)實(shí)了。其中一個原因是技術(shù)進(jìn)步。你現(xiàn)在擁有的工作技能不可能一直有用，也不足以支撐你的整個職業(yè)生涯。事實(shí)上，這些技能可能很快就會過時(shí)，然后你會怎么做？努力地工作？中彩票？盡量往好處想？你可能會運(yùn)氣不錯。這些做法可能會帶來美好舒適的生活：從事一項(xiàng)自己喜歡的工作，掙著一份體面的薪水，退休時(shí)還年富力強(qiáng)。但是，今天我們大多數(shù)人都必須跳出“職業(yè)生涯”這個小框來看待問題。ReadPara.3-4toconcludethemeasuresthatwecantaketodealwiththechallengesinfuturejobareas.MeasureslookforsmarterwaybepreparedfordevelopmentandchangesarisktakeraninnovatoraproblemsolveraharderworkertolearnbyyourselfyouwillhaveachancetochoosetobuildacareerHowtosucceedina21stcenturycareer:

如果以為一天工作8個小時(shí)就可以成就一番事業(yè)，那么你得重新想想了。完成別人安排的任務(wù)，也許可以保住你的工作，但絕不是取得巨大職業(yè)成就的方法。相反，最好要不斷尋找更巧妙的工作方法，要成為一個冒險(xiǎn)者、一個創(chuàng)新者、一個問題解決者，以及一個努力工作的人。持之以恒，這樣有一天你才會成為某個行業(yè)的專家或?qū)I(yè)人士。你有機(jī)會去選擇成就一番事業(yè)，而不是讓別人決定自己的去留。④Jobsandoccupationscomeandgoatanamazingpacethesedays.Ifyouthinkyoucan’tbereplacedbysoftware,oryourjobcan’tbeoutsourcedtosomerobotsonthemoon,youarewrong.Whatifyourjobdisappearsafterworkingfor10yearsinthefield?Youmayhavetogobacktotheclassroomandberetrainedinordertoqualifytoworkinanotherfield.Infact,inalllikelihood,youwillhavetodothismultipletimes.Butyoucanbepreparedfordevelopmentsandchangesbeforeyouarethrownoutofacareer.Itisentirelyyourchoicetolearn,ortobeforcedtolearn.

如今，工作更換、職業(yè)更替的速度驚人。如果認(rèn)為自己不會被軟件所取代，或者自己的工作不可能外包給月球上的機(jī)器人，那就大錯特錯了。假如自己辛辛苦苦工作了十年的崗位消失了怎么辦？你可能不得不重新回到教室，接受再培訓(xùn)，才能取得在其他領(lǐng)域工作的資格。事實(shí)上，你非常有可能要這樣重復(fù)很多次。但是在被職業(yè)拋棄之前，你可以為未來的發(fā)展變化做好準(zhǔn)備。選擇主動學(xué)習(xí)還是被迫學(xué)習(xí)，完全取決于你自己。⑤Inshort,ifyouwanttosucceedin

簡言之，如果你想在21世紀(jì)的職業(yè)生涯中取得成功，就必須培養(yǎng)新的必備技能。從同一個雇主那里獲得終身職業(yè)保障已不再可能也不再可行。實(shí)際上，你才是自己職業(yè)生涯的老板，也只有你才能決定自己能做什么、能做多好。你準(zhǔn)備好了嗎？jobsinthefutureReason:softskills:technologycommunicationself-motivationresponsibilityfelxibilityConclusionyouarethebossofyourcareer,anditisuptoyoutodecidewhatyoucandoandhowwellyoucando.DiscussingroupsWhydoesthewriterthinkthe“newboss”is“you”?2.Onwhatpointsdoyouagreeordisagreewiththewriter?Why?Think&Share1.Whydoestheauthorthinkthe“newboss”is“you”?
