Millennials are the first generation of the modern era to have higher levels of unemployment and student loan debt, and lower levels of wealth and personal income in comparison to the previous two generations at the same life stage. A popular explanation has been to write off the entire cohort as entitled and lazy, but such judgments are both unproductive and inaccurate. Millennials aren’t inherently lazy — on the contrary, we’re wildly ambitious. The problem is that most of us don’t know where to direct our desire for fulfillment.
While plenty has been said about millennials, little has been written for them, from the point of view of someone who understands on a personal level the unique circumstances that the generation faces. In The Millennial’s Guide to a Meaningful Life, author and millennial Daniel Scott Johnson presents a wide-ranging synthesis of the most effective concepts in personal development, as applied in a modern and relatable context. Ideas are supported by up-to-date research in psychology and social science, as well as dozens of illustrative stories and anecdotes.
Readers will learn how to identify their passions, master their emotions, craft a personal productivity framework, and apply countless other practical methods to develop their self-reliance and make their own meaning. With these techniques, millennials will understand how the most difficult inherent challenges they contend with can be transmuted into their greatest opportunities for growth and success.
