80% workplace anxiety caused by age can be solved by these 3 points

1.

When can I feel old?

It’s probably calmly accepting a child’s name as an uncle/aunt; probably when registering online to fill in a birthday, the year’s drop-down menu needs to go forward longer and longer; probably after doing something, use sleep instead of Go out for a drink and celebrate.

……

These moments are slowly reminding you that you are old.

But more directly, the age difference between the company and its new employees is growing.

Occupation is like a catalyst for age anxiety. A few days ago on Weibo, I saw a topic called “35-year-old law”

said that in the past There may be many industries that pay for your work experience based on the length of the industry. For example, if you work for 5 years, even if your ability is similar to that of a fresh graduate, you can still get at least double the income.

And now more often, the bosses have discovered this. If you don’t have too much skill and experience, you will be eliminated and replaced with a cost-effective young person. Many young people feel the early arrival of the middle-aged crisis.

I asked everyone in the background and the onion reading group. In fact, every 35-year-old workplace is worried: What should I do if I am eliminated by a cheaper and easier-to-use young person?

Everyone is thinking about their way out.

@Becky陈云:

“As a 35-year-old resignation, I am quite touched. I have worked stably for the past ten years.

Beginning to be anxious before the age of 30, I always feel that I can look at my head at first glance, lack of challenges and meaning, and I can mix my days. But after resigning, the world is not the same as imagined.

“A very real problem, my complete experience.

I feel that I have a stable job due to the influence of my parents, but this is not the case. Until the company came to a knockout exam when I was about 35 years old, I was awakened and my mindset began to change. Before that, I also thought that if I could get out of the organization, I wouldn’t know the answer.

The anxiety of the middle-aged crisis is everywhere. At the beginning, I should have chosen the comfortable debt when I was fighting. I hope it will be too late.

@昊强:

“In many companies, 35-year-old is the age limit for applying and hiring. Unless you have a high degree of education or are really recognized as a cow’s title, it is easy to suffer in the face of 35.

However, many jobs outside the workplace are based on the ability to look at the age. Eating with the ability is the mainstream, and age is not the reason to eat empty.

@Danielle:

“In my opinion, we should not be 35 years old, but 35 years old with no experience and skills. It is easy to be replaced by young people who are more cost-effective.

So what you really need to care about is how to improve your irreplaceability. We all know that it is easy to be replaced by repeated mechanical labor. It is not easy to be replaced by a person’s creative ability and thinking ability.

Yes, society does not What is tolerated is not a 35-year-old, but a 35-year-old who has no hard skills.

Think about how people treat 35-year-old traffic stars who still can’t get their work and how to deal with the 40-year-old acting actor who can still play.

From a certain perspective, anxiety is not all bad, and crisis is sometimes the foundation of a person’s survival.

@Alshynn:

“At what stage is 35 years old, it is up to you to decide, and whether there will be a middle-aged crisis is also determined by his own state. If it is good, there is no middle-aged crisis.”

Why are you anxious at the age of 35, but you don’t have to talk too much.

How to fight age anxiety in the industry is what we should think about.

First come chat Expectation of work.

Many people are concerned about their own efforts. Our personal algorithm is: return = pay, feel that I have spent time, how much to do.

However, we forgot that the enterprise’s algorithm is not like this. The business is like this: Your return = your results – the expectations of the business.

If you do more than the company expects, you have value, you can stay; if you do the same with others, why give you more than others’ returns?

So what are we worried about?

We are anxious about whether we will get more rewards and can wait for them; but forget that the decision-making factor of return is that you have to have “super-expected” results.

Understanding this, you will find that 35-year-old anxiety does not exist at all, because if you don’t pay attention to your results, you will do any work and feel anxiety at any position.

How do you continue to do better than expected?

As a person who has been a technical department director since the programmer, I think that a few things should be noted from the beginning of your work:

1

Focus on problem solving

Find out your job responsibilities. From the company’s point of view, the position is set to solve specific problems.

The ability to solve problems = Method + Efficiency

One thing is handed over to you, you can do it well; give you one more, you can do it well; give it back to you, you can do it. We call it a reliable one.

Reliable, that is, competence.

What you have to do is to accumulate this kind of competent experience.

In this process, you can do it, there are ways, there are routines; you have to do it quickly, do well, use tools, and have skills.

To achieve consistent output

The ability to do things, but also to sip. Many people will think that it’s very kind to do things.Good character – I advise you to save your mind. Because if you don’t know how to report your results, it means that your leader only knows that you are doing it, but you don’t know how you are doing it.

Your leadership is also a post. His task is to ensure the assignment and execution of the task. He reports to his superiors and is the result.

At work, there are generally only two types of things we do:

A project is a task that requires results within a certain period of time. For example, to make a client’s plan;

Everyday refers to things that can be repeated every day, such as weekly meetings, daily customer interviews.

Every time I meet with the team guys, I will emphasize that if you don’t say what you have done, report your results, and when I am promoted, I will choose you. Are you special?

The ability to continue learning

Frequently ask yourself, what are I consolidating, what needs to be improved, and what needs to be developed?

Employees who do not continue to learn have only one result and are eliminated.

Why?

Because the purpose of business operations is development, it is growth. If you stay in the same place in the development of the company, there is only one result, that is, it is eliminated.

Conversely, if you are constantly growing up, but the growth of the company is stagnant, what is the result, you will change jobs, because you feel that there is no chance of a rise in this business.

Every time I interview a new employee, I will ask him a question. How long are you leaving?

Because I want to see if he is motivated, I don’t worry if he says that I will do it for a year. If this is the case, after one year, I will see if the company and my department have more to him. High expectations, can you give him a higher platform, if there is, he just grew up to this ability, then talk about the price just fine, everyone is not a fool.

Finally, let’s imagine If a job gives you a high salary and work is easy, you don’t need to be more and more powerful.

If there isWhat kind of work do you need to pay for? What will you lose?

In fact, the reason is very simple, Every age has its own anxiety, and immediate action is the best way to alleviate anxiety.

@刘静:

“For 45-year-olds, 35-year-old is young, there is no need to entangle at 35. Age is only a physiological figure, does not represent our psychological figures and growth figures.

Some people live at 65 years old and become 65 years old. They eat and die, and they are mediocre. Some people are 65 years old but live to be 25 years old. They are always curious and curiosity about the world, and nourish their lives with wisdom and experience. Instead of entanglement with age, think about what life you want and then go to action.

@刘晚晚

“My son is 1 year old and 2 months old. Now he can eat complementary food, but he is an angry temper. He grabs a hot hand in a plate of buns, but he will not cry when he catches it. The stuffed buns are not eaten. .

This question is not an age issue, but a question of whether 35-year-old is not successful or not. Those who are anxious to succeed will only overturn the things on the table like children, and the more they cry, the more they can’t eat.

Only choose your own track, keep running, and when you run, you can’t hear other people’s voices, just follow your own rhythm.

You can’t eat a few years of youth.

Being your skills and preparing for possible bottlenecks and anxiety is what we should do.

“Whether you are 25 or 35, today you will always be the youngest day of your life.”

It’s not so anxious to look at it like this.

Let’s move on together and continue to cheer~
