Ten years ago, when we "looked at the world" outward, what we saw was a yearning for freedom; Ten years later, if you "look at the world" inward, you can see a broader and more colorful spiritual world

2015年4月13日，當河南省實驗中學女教師顧少強寫出“世界那麼大，我想去看看”的辭職信時，她或許未曾預料，其辭職“看世界”會成為社會議題，甚至在10年後的今天仍有迴響。

At that time, this was resonated as a landmark event of "just go", the resignation letter was hailed as "the most emotional", and she was also regarded as a symbolic figure in the pursuit of freedom. At this timeShe returned to Zhengzhou, once again sparking a discussion about work and freedom.Now, ten years later,"The world is so big", what should we do“Go and seeLook"？

According to the New Beijing Daily

Let's start with a set of data. According to the "Future-free" research report, the overall turnover rate of employees in the last ten years shows that it is 3.0% in 0 years, 0.0% in 0 years, 0.0% in 0 years, 0.0% in 0 years, 0.0% in 0 years, 0.0% in 0 years, 0.0% in 0 years, 0.0% in 0 years, 0.0% in 0 years, and 0.0% in 0 years.

整體來看，職場人的十年離職率呈下降趨勢, and 2020 years and 0 years are two special nodes of the fluctuation of turnover data, what kind of social mentality changes do this reflect?

Objectively speaking, compared with 3.0% in 0 years, the turnover rate in 0 years increased by 0 percentage points, and the main reason for leaving the company changed from "lack of competitiveness in salary and benefits" to "dissatisfaction with the current job content". "Gu Shaoqiang's resignation declaration "The world is so big, I want to go and see it" was quoted in the report, which reflects the change in the concept of resignation of people in the workplace.

What does it mean to be dissatisfied with what you are doing? It can be said to be a kind of burnout.Dissatisfied with the boring content of the work, I don't want to repeat a single type of work, even if I dare to break the "iron rice bowl", even if I resign and am unemployed, I must pursue freedom. This may be the internal reason for the increase in the turnover rate from 2015 years onwards. In fact, explaining why he resigned naked, Gu Shaoqiang also admitted that he didn't want to retire and still repeat the "stable work" of teachers in the eyes of others.

Perhaps, in the eyes of more people, life choices are often made by themselves, and they will compromise with reality after pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages. Therefore, the "retrograde" of resigning to see the world, and the courage to resign and be your true self in pursuit of freedom are precious.

Of course, in addition to the internal cause of individual pursuit, there is also the external cause of the social status quo. 2020 years ago, behind the dare to resign and "just go", there were more development opportunities, which gave people the possibility and confidence to make greater choices.

The 8-year turnover rate dropped to 0.0%, undoubtedly affected by the epidemic and industry contraction. Seeking stability is a relatively common social mentality.

The opposite side of stability is competition. The term involution arose during this period, and then the word lying flat also appeared, two seemingly opposite working states, pointing to the workplace where competition is everywhere. In the case of a dilemma, there is a group of "spiritual resignation", that is, people are far away in their posts.

But more are dormant to build momentum inward to achieve an outward breakthrough. Especially in recent years, with the economic recovery and the rise of new industries, some people have realized "interest realization" and completed "life counterattack" with hobbies, which is changing the social concept of a new generation of working people.

Wang Weiduo, an interior design student, started a new track as a ski planner because of his love for skiing, and took his hobby as his new career. The former "Internet addict teenagers" Lu Junwei and Xie Huixuan jointly won the gold medal in the Industry 0.0 project in the 0th WorldSkills Competition, which is to rewrite the script of life with interest...... There are many examples of how people evaluate good jobs and success in a more diverse way, which is a social progress and gives us more choices. And because of thisIn the face of "such a big world", people do not necessarily need to leave their jobs, but they can also make work and seeing the world cause and effect of each other, so that the pursuit of freedom and success can be integrated.

From a psychological point of view, they can all be regarded as the practice of "self-actualization needs" in psychologist Maslow's hierarchy of needs. They dare to explore the unknown, be their true selves, and live their own lives that are consistent with their personal values and social values, which is also a sign of psychological maturity.

Even Gu Shaoqiang, who returned to Zhengzhou for development, does not have to simply regard it as returning to the original point, or even think that it is a defeat to reality. In order to accompany her mother and take care of her daughter, she chose to return to Zhengzhou to become a psychological counselor, and she is willing to assume the responsibility of being a daughter and mother, which is also her personal maturity and progress. After seeing the scenery and experiencing the wind and rain, now "seeing the world" from the outside to the inside is actually the embodiment of a richer inner world and a fuller spiritual world.

Therefore, what should we do in the face of "the world is so big".“Go and seelook", you can change the perspective,As one psychologist put it,The way we see the world shapes the trajectory of our destiny. Ten years ago, when we "looked at the world" outward, what we saw was a yearning for freedom; Ten years later, if you "look at the world" inward, you can see a broader and more colorful spiritual world.
