When you reach 50, you only get more and more silent and you don't want to go to work

Some say, "I envy those who can retire in their 40s and have financial freedom." Others say, "I want to quit my job, I don't want to go to work for a day."

Forty years old and not confused, fifty years old and knowing one's fate. It's not easy to reach middle age. The pressure on you is getting bigger and bigger, but there are not many ways to make money. Suddenly, one day, I found myself in a "go against the grain" mentality, not wanting to do or say anything anymore.

When people reach 50, they become more and more silent and don't want to go to work, most of them due to the following reasons.

1. There is no more room for upward mobility, and the "ceiling" has been reached.

People to fifty, want to be promoted, but the possibility is very small, especially for some people in the system, a fifty-year-old, there is a "second line of thought", the unit has the opportunity to promote, but also to consider young people.

The old Zhao of our unit, fifty-two years old this year, as soon as he opened his mouth, said: "In my life, I can mix a department deputy manager, already very content. When I reach fifty-five, I'll be waiting for retirement, so don't even think about it." Old Zhao used to work very actively, but now, he is a bit evasive, especially when it comes to difficult matters, he stumbles and does not take a position, leaving things to another young deputy manager of the department.

When I first joined the unit, everyone hoped that they would have the opportunity to make a big splash and rise through the ranks, but at the age of fifty, even if they had an idea, there was nothing they could do. There is no advantage in terms of age anymore and you have to recognize the situation. Many people want to retire early and don't want to work anymore.

2. More and more concerned about health, also do not want to toss themselves.

People are in the workplace, they can't help themselves. Working overtime and staying up late has become a norm, and I feel overwhelmed. When I was young, I could stay up all night, but the next day I was still alive and well, and when I was working, I wasn't in bad shape. But at the age of 50, if you stay up all night, you are physically exhausted the next day.

Some people who are physically ill are even more reluctant to torment themselves and want to retire as soon as possible. Even if they can take a sick retirement, they are willing to do so. Health is the greatest asset, and no one should gamble on tomorrow with his or her health. The older you get, the more important your health becomes.

The more one tosses and turns, the luckier one is, but the more one tosses and turns, the more one's body can't take it. However, if a person is over 50, if there is still a burden on the family, children, and children studying, the elderly also need to manage, that is, the body is in sub-health, also have to suffer in silence, on the one hand, hate to go to work, on the other hand, have to go to work, left and right dilemma.

3. After many years of hard work, you feel that "everything is fate, and nothing is up to you", and you have no more will to fight.

You must have seen the phrase "If you get through it, you win". But have you survived for many years, and have you won? Have you succeeded? Some people, boiled out of the head, some people, still on the unit to boil, and then boil for a few years, but also in the same place. For example, in a certain department within the system, there are 30 to 40 general cadres, but none of them have been promoted in a few years, that is, according to seniority, many cadres are still ordinary cadres until they retire.

If you start your own business and you struggle for more than 10 to 20 years and you don't see any improvement, you will want to give up. Starting a business is also going to work, only the way you go to work has changed. When you give up your business plan, you will suddenly feel that you have nothing to do. That's how many people want to feel when they're over 50.

When you reach 50, you believe more and more in the adage "you have to have what you want when you want it, but don't force it when you don't want it", believing that fate is what it is and there is no way to change it. It is better to take a step back and learn to enjoy life, even if you are content with the status quo, it does not matter.

4. You have the idea that "money is not enough, just enough" and you don't want to work hard to earn money.

"When you are young, everyone has a dream of getting rich, hoping that they can make a fortune and live a high life. When people reach middle age, they have old people and young people under them, money is really important, and if they lose their jobs, they are destined to sit on their hands. Especially people with car and mortgage loans, who don't work for a month, face the trouble of forced debt.

Most people, when they reach 50, are not under the pressure of a mortgage anymore. A few, who have bought a new house, are still living in debt, but they generally have a good idea of how to pay back their debts.

As people reach 50, they become more realistic about the money and no longer have "impulsive thoughts". Once the concept of money has changed, a person will slowly relax, even if he or she does not have much savings, it does not matter, he or she will have a pension and will be able to feed and clothe himself or herself.

My old colleague, Zhao Sun, quit his job last year. He said, "Now I have 500,000 yuan in savings, my pension has been paid and my children have grown up and started a family. I don't want to go to work anymore, I don't want to look at other people's faces. One's life is only a few decades, and when one is old and tired, can one still enjoy life?" I admire Zhao Sun's courage, and I can see that his concept of money has made a big U-turn.

5. The mentality of "being willing to live behind others" and not wanting to compete with young people.

If a 50-year-old person has to compete with some younger people for a certain position, he or she will most likely lose the advantage and feel overwhelmed. When you compare yourself with others who are vigorous and vigorous, but you are full of grey hair, you will feel sad.

If life didn't force you to do so, you wouldn't just jump from job to job when you reach 50, nor would you try to squeeze in young people's jobs. It doesn't matter if you don't make a living and remain an ordinary person for the rest of your life.

It is only true to be mediocre and to be safe and sound is a blessing. After the age of fifty, life begins to go downhill, always having to face the reality, and learn to take the initiative to give way, is also a reasonable thing. In some positions within the system, people will have to give way when they reach the age of fifty, which is also a good thing to take a step back and open up the sky.

6. No one understands you, you feel upset, but you don't want to say anything.

In this life, it is better to rely on anyone than on oneself. When people reach 50, they see life more and more clearly and adapt to a life without any dependents, so they don't borrow money from others even if they don't have any. Instead of asking for money, I would rather ask myself.

Also, everyone is a unique person, and if you talk to someone else, it just gives them more to talk about, it doesn't give them the best comfort. You just talk to your family about what's on your mind and you'll be misunderstood or immediately hear words of complaint. Instead of chattering, it is better to be silent.

When you reach middle age, you long to meet a confidant, someone you can talk to and have a heart-to-heart with, but middle age has passed, have you met them? The fact is that you'll be able to get a lot more than just a couple of days to get a lot more than just a couple of days. The actual tiredness, learn to comfort yourself, alone.

The first half of one's life is a life of hard work and the second half of one's life is a life of cherishing. If you can't change the reality of your life, then change your mindset.

After the age of fifty, you are a grandparent's generation, and your career is nearing its end, so living the rest of your life quietly is probably the best choice.
