At the most crucial time in life
Description
Book Introduction
A youth psychologist who has garnered a huge response from people in their 20s with his warm yet cool advice.
Meg Jay returns after a 10-year hiatus to help troubled 20-somethings once again!
The reason you should live your 20s to the fullest is because they are an important time in your life!
Advice on how to live life to the fullest during this crucial period of your life – work, love, and body and mind!
Youth psychology expert Meg Jay, in the 2010s, a difficult decade due to the global financial crisis, created a great response from the public with this book, which presents reasons and methods for spending one's 20s properly in terms of 'work', 'love', and 'body and mind' based on scientific theories such as life cycle, psychology, brain science, and behavioral economics.
Ten years later, technological advancements have transformed the world and culture, and the latest scientific theories of the time continue to advance without stopping.
Just as the financial crisis that marked the publication of the first edition brought about a period of global turmoil, major events, including COVID-19, have once again brought about global chaos.
Just as he did ten years ago, Mac Jay has revised and updated his book to offer warm yet sober advice to today's 20-somethings.
The 20s seem to be a time of coexistence of hope and disconnection.
Some say that the 20s are a golden age, a hopeful time when you can challenge anything.
But for those in their 20s, it can be a disconnection from the difficulties and worries that weigh them down and the lack of anyone to listen to their concerns.
Mac Jay says that the 20s are a crucial time in life.
It is said that most of the important things in our lives, such as economic power, love, marriage, connections, body, and mind, are decided by us.
Wasting a decade in your twenties can cost you decades to come, and it can even impact your future life and the way you raise your children.
On the one hand, it also says that the important 20s are a time filled with the most uncertainty, and that young people in their 20s are bound to fall into difficulties, worries, and frustrations.
Mac Jay listens to the stories and inner thoughts of young people who have suffered due to the deeply ingrained prejudices and stereotypes about those in their 20s, and offers methods on how to live well and not waste the crucial years of your 20s.
It also broadens our perspective on this special time by examining how our social and cultural perspectives on people in their 20s are flawed.
This book is a must-read for those in their 20s, who feel like they are floating on the ocean during the most important transformational period of their lives. It is also a very useful book for parents and relatives of children in their 20s to help them understand their 20s.
Furthermore, if you want to correctly understand the marginalized 20-somethings in our society and culture, this book is a very important guide.

Publisher's Review
If you want to spend your 20s to the fullest without regrets, you must read this book!
Advice for 20-somethings from Meg Jay, America's leading youth psychologist!
In your 20s, light and darkness coexist.
Those around us see our 20s as a splendid time when we are just becoming adults and starting to build our own lives, but for those in their 20s, it is a time filled with confusion, pain, and uncertainty.
There are so many people in their 20s who are at a loss about what to do, worried about the difficulty of finding a job, or still suffering from the pain of being in love.
If the older generation looks at the worries of those in their 20s from afar, they might think that they are complaining about something trivial.
However, if you look at it with the awareness that the worries of your 20s have a huge impact on your future, your worries in your 20s will be taken as serious concerns rather than complaints.
Youth psychologist Meg Jay defines the 20s as "the most crucial period of life" and advises on how to live this important period to the fullest.
Meg Jay offers persuasive research and insightful insights into the inner lives of those in their 20s, offering advice to those in their 20s who seem to be drifting on a vast ocean, on why they should seize the moment and not let it slip away.
If you don't live your 20s to the fullest, it will be difficult to enjoy a happy and fulfilling life in your 30s, 40s, and even later in life. So, Meg Jay wrote a book filled with warm yet cool-headed advice in the hopes that people in their 20s can live better lives.
Published in the 2010s, this book provided great comfort and advice to people in their 20s.
And after 10 years, it was revised and published with the latest research results and a story tailored to the eye level of the current 20-something generation, the digital native generation.
This book is definitely for people in their 20s.
But it's not just a book for people in their 20s.
The advice in this book is also useful for those who have just finished their 20s and are entering their 30s.
It will also serve as a useful guide for parents who have difficulty understanding their children in their 20s, who are so accustomed to the digital world, unlike in the past.
Ultimately, it will help break down the wrong prejudices and misconceptions about the socially and culturally marginalized and disconnected 20-somethings and help them look at their 20-somethings in a more positive light.
I highly recommend this book, as it provides valuable advice to the 20-something protagonist and offers deep insight to everyone around them.
