… No matter what your job is now, it’s really important to think about the meaning of your job since it occupies nearly two thirds(2/3) of your life. Do you really like it or do you hate it? Watch today’s video to figure out the things you really want to pursue(追求) in your life.

You need to think through how it is that your life could be properly arranged if you had that ability.

1. arrange [əˋrendʒ] (v.) 安排;整理;準備;改編(樂曲)
To put into proper order or into a correct or suitable sequence(順序), relationship(關係), or adjustment(調整).
* to arrange flowers in a vase(花瓶)

The second definition for arrange is to make preparations (準備) for.
* to arrange a reception(接待) for the visitor

The third definition for arrange is to adapt a musical composition(樂曲) by scoring for voices or instruments other than those[for which] originally written.

There is a huge difference in meaning of whether if you put for after arrange. If you simply use arrange that means to plan(計畫).
And if you use arrange for that means prepare(準備) for, you’re the one in charge(負責).
*Sometimes you will have to arrange meetings, don’t forget to discuss how to divide(劃分) the workload fairly beforehand(預先).

2.
proper (adj.)
* proper place
* proper equipment

properly [ˋprɑpɚlɪ] (adv.) 正確地;合適地;適當地
It means in an acceptable or a suitable way, or in an accurate(準確的) or correct way.
* somebody behaves(表現) properly
* something works properly
* It’s hard to properly explain the strange notion(想法) I have, because the theory itself is quite ambiguous(含糊不清的) and abstract(抽象的).

3.
ability [əˋbɪlətɪ] (n.) 能力;才智
We have three definitions here. The first definition is the quality or state(狀態) of being able, especially physical, mental, or legal(合法的) power to do something.
The second one is the confidence(信心) in doing something.
The third one is natural ability or [acquired(養成的) proficiency(熟練)].
* What would you do if you had the ability to do anything you want?

[what’s] more? Ability is a suffix(字尾).
vulnerability 脆弱性、弱點
acceptability 可接受度
adaptability 適應性

… The video makes me think about my job and my life. Sometimes we might be forced to do something under the pressure of having to earn a living. But our jobs still play a important role in our life, that is why we need to think it through. Maybe the professor is not completely correct but to think about these questions in a different way is still helpful...

I think it’s a question that I avoid to go deep with recently since I just started my new job for a short time. I am blessed to have very considerate senior colleagues to teach me everything there. But somehow I still think that I don’t fit in there. Maybe the reason is that I am a free spirit, so it will be better for me to conduct a project on my own. Anyway, I am still working on the question about wether I love this job or not.
