Over the past 100 years, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes. Two world wars, the Great Depression, the Cold War, globalisation, the technological explosion, the climate crisis... These major events have shaped today's world pattern and filled the lives of ordinary people with variables. In the next 100 years, trends such as AI development will bring about even more dramatic civilizational reconstructions. The future our students face is far more complex than we can imagine.

With a future full of uncertainties, it's inevitable for students to feel anxious. From a psychological perspective, the amygdala in the brain "overreacts" when faced with uncertainties, triggering anxiety. At the same time, processing vague information consumes a large amount of cognitive resources, leading to decision fatigue. Exams, choosing a major, and career planning can all plunge students into anxiety. Moreover, anxiety is widespread, and teenagers are particularly prone to it due to academic pressure.

In an uncertain future, career planning serves as a beacon of light. It is a systematic consideration and plan for an individual's future career, education, and life path, helping students find a life direction that matches their interests, abilities, and values. The period from 15 to 25 years old is a crucial stage for career development. Choices such as subject selection, major selection, and career direction are all closely related to a child's future. Through career planning, students can better choose their subjects and majors, clarify their career directions, enhance their planning and decision-making abilities, and increase their sense of security in facing the future.

Everyone's life follows a basic developmental pattern. From the foundational period of childhood to the period of spiritual sublimation, each stage has its core tasks. However, the "right time" stipulated by the social clock is not the standard answer for life. Life is a process of constantly making choices, and there is no absolute "optimal solution". Getting into a prestigious school, earning a million-dollar salary, or achieving entrepreneurial success are not the only criteria for measuring a successful life. We should guide our students to think about the meaning of life and find their own definition of "success".
