Wrapping your mind around your life is pretty hard because you're up to your neck in it.

It's like trying to understand the ocean while learning how to swim.

這就好比一邊學習游泳，一邊試圖瞭解海洋。

On most days, you're busy just keeping your head above water.

在大多數日子裡，你都忙於維持生計。

So it's not easy to figure out what to do with your life and how to spend your time.

是以，要想知道自己的生活該怎麼過，時間該怎麼花，並不容易。

Your family, friends and romantic partners, boring work and exciting projects.

你的家人、朋友和戀人，無聊的工作和令人興奮的項目。

And then there's your couch that somebody needs to lie on.

還有你的沙發，需要有人躺在上面。

So let's take a step back and look at your life from the outside.

所以，讓我們退後一步，從外部看看你的生活。

The average Kurzgesagt viewer is around 25 years old, which is a pretty good time in the life of most people.

About 1 in 20 people watching this video will get to live to 100.

觀看這段視頻的人中，大約每 20 人中就有 1 人可以活到 100 歲。

Let's assume you are one of the lucky ones, which means you had a total of 5,200 weeks of life at your disposal when you were born.

假設你是幸運兒之一，這意味著你出生時總共有 5200 周的生命可以支配。

You spent the first 600 weeks of your life being a kid and 400 being a teenager.

你生命中的前 600 周是孩子，400 周是青少年。

During this time, you were pretty useless for society and also not very free to make your own decisions.

在這段時間裡，你對社會毫無用處，也不能自由地做出自己的決定。

As a payoff, you were somewhat spared from the consequences and responsibilities of adulthood.

作為回報，你在某種程度上免於承擔成年的後果和責任。

Mostly because well-meaning adults protected you by cleaning up your mess and giving you time to find yourself.

主要是因為好心的成年人保護你，幫你收拾殘局，給你時間找回自我。

This time is necessary to make you, at least in theory, a functioning human.

至少在理論上，這段時間是讓你成為一個正常人所必需的。

Although most people probably don't feel like that after puberty.

雖然大多數人在青春期過後可能就不會有這種感覺了。

In any case, by the time you're 20, over 1,000 of your 5,200 weeks have passed.

無論如何，當你 20 歲時，5200 週中的 1000 周已經過去了。

Depending on what you aspire to, at this point you're either working already or have entered further education.

The amount of fun you can have in this phase of your life varies a lot.

If you pick up a trade or need to work to support yourself or others, the serious side of life begins earlier.

If you go to university, you get to push back work life a bit longer.

This is such an important thing that we'll look at work and how you can try to find a satisfying career in another video.

In this phase, you transition from being young to middle-aged to old.

在這個階段，你從青年過渡到中年，再到老年。

Not old old, but the young old of your 60s.

不是年老，而是 60 多歲的年輕。

At 65, you've used up 3,400 of your 5,200 weeks.

65 歲時，你已經用完了 5200 週中的 3400 周。

If you've managed to acquire enough wealth to retire, in theory, you're now free to do whatever you like for up to 1,800 weeks.

理論上講，如果你已經獲得了足夠的財富來退休，那麼你現在就可以在長達 1800 周的時間裡自由地做任何你想做的事情。

But of course, this is not how it works for the majority of you watching this video. 19 out of 20 people will not live to 100.

當然，對於觀看本視頻的大多數人來說，情況並非如此。20 人中有 19 人活不到 100 歲。

If you die at age 80, which is still not bad, you only have 780 weeks of freedom after you retire.

如果你在 80 歲時去世，這還算不錯，你退休後只有 780 周的自由時間。

That's roughly as many weeks of freedom as an old person as you spent as a child.

作為一個老人，這大概相當於你在孩提時代度過的自由週數。

Unfortunately, disease and the tiredness of age trip you up here, because with old age, the human body begins to decline sharply.

If you bet all your fun cards on being free and happy in your retirement, you might be bitterly disappointed.

如果你把所有的賭注都押在退休後的自由和快樂上，你可能會大失所望。

And all of this is still assuming things work out and you even get to grow old.

而這一切的前提是一切順利，你甚至可以慢慢變老。

You can drown in a pool at age 7, get cancer at age 32, die in a car crash at age 48.

你可能在 7 歲時溺死在游泳池裡，32 歲時患上癌症，48 歲時死於車禍。

60 歲時，你可能會從梯子上摔下來。

Every day, the universe rolls a bunch of dice for every human.

每天，宇宙都在為每個人擲骰子。

And every day, someone somewhere on this planet rolls a critical failure, and their life ends that day.

每天，這個星球上的某個地方都會有人遭遇重大失敗，他們的生命就在那一天終結。

The older you get, the more dice are rolled for you.

年齡越大，為你擲出的骰子就越多。

Usually, when you swim through the ocean that is your life, you don't think about all of this too much, and that's fine.

通常，當你在生活的海洋中遨遊時，你不會過多地考慮這些，這很好。

Life is engaging enough by itself, and the future is this undefined weird thing.

生活本身就夠吸引人了，而未來則是一個無法定義的怪東西。

But thinking about it from time to time is helpful in refocusing on what you want to do and to minimize regrets you will have when you look back.

但時不時想一想，有助於重新專注於自己想做的事情，並減少回首往事時的遺憾。

And to remind you that if you don't use your time today, you might not get a chance to use it tomorrow.

同時提醒大家，如果今天不利用時間，明天可能就沒有機會利用了。

Life is complicated, and it's hard to make decisions between all the things and people that are important to you.

生活是複雜的，很難在所有對你來說重要的事情和人之間做出決定。

This has become painfully obvious to billions of people during the coronavirus pandemic.

在冠狀病毒大流行期間，數十億人痛苦地發現了這一點。

If you respected social distancing, so many things that we took for granted were not available anymore.

如果你尊重社會距離，那麼很多我們認為理所當然的事情就不再存在了。

Traveling and public places and eating out and seeing friends and meeting new people.

旅行、公共場所、外出就餐、會見朋友、結識新朋友。

Spending time together became limited and precious.

在一起的時間變得有限而珍貴。

But actually, the time you have with the people you love is already precious.

但其實，與夫妻在一起的時間本來就很寶貴。

As a child, you spend basically every day with them.

作為孩子，你基本上每天都和他們在一起。

Your time spent together begins to decline as you transition and become a teenager and fight to develop your own identity.

隨著你逐漸長大成人，並努力發展自己的個性，你們在一起的時間開始減少。

But as teenagers, you probably still see them regularly, which changes as you enter your 20s, but most people move out.

但在青少年時期，你可能還會經常見到他們，進入 20 多歲後情況會有所改變，但大多數人都會搬出去住。

For university, for work, or just to be on their own.

為了上大學，為了工作，或者只是為了獨處。

If you're making an effort to be with your parents for two full weeks each year for the rest of their lives, which covers the main holidays, birthdays, and a bit extra, you still have already spent more than 90% of the time you will ever spend with them, even if they grow pretty old.

如果你努力在父母的餘生中每年陪伴他們整整兩週的時間，包括主要節日、生日和一些額外的時間，那麼即使他們變得很老，你也已經度過了90%以上的陪伴時間。

If they die earlier, or if you see them only a few days each year, this number shrinks even more.

如果它們死得更早，或者你每年只能見到它們幾天，這個數字就會縮水得更多。

So, in all likelihood, the vast majority of time you will ever spend with your parents has passed.

是以，很可能你與父母相處的絕大多數時間都已經過去了。

The same holds true for your siblings or old friends that moved to the other side of the country.

對於搬到美國另一端的兄弟姐妹或老朋友來說，情況也是如此。

You're at the tail end of the time with some of the most important people in your life.

你和生命中最重要的人在一起的時光已進入尾聲。

One day, you will see them for the last time.

總有一天，你們會最後一次見到他們。

And it's actually the same with everything else.

The concept of doing something for the last time feels eerie, like something that you should only experience when you're on death row, or extremely old, or something like that.

最後一次做一件事的概念讓人感覺陰森恐怖，就像只有在死囚牢裡或年紀極大時才會經歷的事情，或者類似的事情。

Is there a hobby you've been lazy about for a long time?

Maybe you still have those Warhammer minis that you wanted to paint.

也許你還有那些想畫的戰錘小模型。

Did you always want to revisit that place where you had an amazing time a decade ago?

您是否一直想重遊十年前曾讓您度過一段美好時光的地方？

Is there someone you wanted to reach out to for a long time, but haven't yet?

是否有某個人是你很久以來就想聯繫卻一直沒有聯繫的？

Or pick up that sport again to meet new friends?

或者重新開始運動，結識新朋友？

Maybe you will never do any of these things again, because life gets in the way, and at some point, it's too late.

也許你再也不會做這些事情了，因為生活的阻礙，在某些時候，一切都為時已晚。

As the global pandemic begins to wind down, we will all soon be able to be with each other again and do fun things together.

隨著全球大流行病的逐漸消退，我們很快就能再次相聚，一起做有趣的事情。

It's never a bad time to reach out to a friend or a potential friend and let them know that you're looking forward to hanging out.

與朋友或潛在朋友聯繫，讓他們知道你很期待一起出去玩，這永遠不會錯。

But no matter when you're watching this, our life is an incredible gift, and there are so many fun, engaging, and fulfilling things to do.

但無論你何時觀看，我們的生活都是一份不可多得的禮物，有太多有趣、吸引人和充實的事情可以做。

And you get to decide what and who matters to you.

你可以決定什麼事對你重要，誰對你重要。

But what matters the most is that you actually make decisions from time to time.

但最重要的是，你要時不時地做出決定。

此外，如果你想提醒自己人生中還有哪些事情要做，經蒂姆同意，我們製作了一個 Kurzgesagt 版本的人生日曆，可以讓你追蹤人生中已經度過了多少周，還剩下多少周。
