This generation was born approximately 1984 and after
This generation is tough to manage and they are accused of being entitled and narcissistic, self-interested, unfocused, and lazy..
But entitled is a big one.
Because they confound ( confuse) leadership so much.
The leadership asks this generation what they want.
They reply they want to work in a place with purpose and love.
We want to make an impact.
We want free food and bean bags.
Even if they get that they remain unhappy.
They need:
Parenting
Technology
Impatience
Environment
I will explain here in every new paragraph.
They grew up with failed parenting strategies.
They were told all the time, that they were special.
That they can have anything that they want in life, just because they want it.
They got medals for something that they never have done.
If they get a job they find out that they are not special.
That their parents can’t get them the promotion…
They have to work hard to get a promotion.
And so their confidence is shattered and they have lower self-esteem than previous generations.
Through no fault of their own.
They were growing up in a Facebook-Instagram world.
Believed Life is amazing, even so, I am depressed…
Everybody sounds like they got it all figured out…
The reality is that they believe in this fake Facebook reality.
And so they didn’t have it figured out…
Engaged with our cell phones and social media releases a chemical called dopamine.
You get a text, it feels good because the body produces dopamine.
If you feel bad and alone you send 10 messages to people you know and they reply positively.
Again your body produces dopamine so you feel good.
Dopamine is the same chemical that gets produced in the body when we take drugs smoke or gamble.
In other words, it is highly addictive.
We have age limitations for smoking, gambling, and alcohol but not for cell phones and social media…
And this generation has access to an addictive numb-ling Dopamine …
Nearly every alcoholic discovered alcohol when they were teenagers.
When we were young the only approval we needed was the approval of our parents…
Later we need the approval of our peers.
But today we have our cell phones and that substitutes the approval from our friends…
In other words, they don’t need friends anymore they have their cell phones…
They can’t develop deep meaningful relationships, and so they escape in drugs.
They admit that many of their friends are superficial.
Instead of speaking out about their problems with their friends they take drugs.
And that happens when they face social/financial/career stress.
They looking for temporary relief by using their cell phone.
They have friends for enjoyment and they know that they can’t count on their friendships…
We know that people who spend a lot of time on Facebook have more depression than people who spend less time on Facebook.
The problem is the imbalance of drinking alcohol, or using social media … too much harm always…
You see it everywhere they can’t live without a cell phone. They are addicted to a cell phone.
This is called Digital addiction.
I have scolded my girlfriend again and again if you want to talk with me then only without the cell phone…
If they check their phone in the morning, right after they get up they are addicted.
And a cell phone addiction destroys every relationship.
The next problem is impatience …
Because of the instant gratification from their cell – phone they don’t need to wait anymore. And so they can’t wait …
Every good thing needs time.
A good relationship
Job fulfillment
Design new stuff
But they don’t have the time for that…
The results are suicides, drug overdoses…
Kids leave schools because of depression.
So they never find deep fulfillment in the things they do, because they don’t have the time …
They have to learn to overcome the short-term gratification …
And to invest their time in something meaningful.
To work hard and long to get results.
You can’t climb a high mountain in 5 minutes… You need to trek often 4 to 10 days to be at the top of the summit … And it is hard…
Why do I do that?
To reset my life,
to get rid of inner conflicts,
to find peace
And it works – so harder so better…
You can reset your life when you go through total physical exhaustion…
If you don’t believe trek with me…
The people thought that I was crazy that I carried over 16 kg when trekking at high altitudes… For instance Kailash…
The Last point is the environment.
Most jobs are frustrating when the leader of that firm is not motivating and brings you down…
What do they do? They quit.
Instead to be independent, motivate yourselves, to live after your life standards.
