we are stressed because real connection hardly exists anymore. we live in a reality where we are told we should all be independent , alone, working to death. but we are smarter than that. we know that this way of life doesn’t feel good. we are frustrated.

I don’t want to continue working for a selfish company/Boss. Who uses people and expects us to help them accomplish their dreams. I’m overworked for something I don’t even want, I’m burnt.

It also couldn't have anything to do with us getting payed less then most prior generations.

Not only do we have to find a perfect career for us, but we have to find it fast to avoid wasted money and time in college. Good luck to you all with important life decisions!

This hits home. Just graduated college at a university and can't get a decent job outside of waitressing. I worked really hard in school, but the real world makes me feel like it really was for nothing

This speaker gives practical, concise, intelligent and compassionate advice. Great talk!

This is soooo accurate. I just graduated and I have a decent job - not high paying, but after 10 years getting your loans forgiven is more than worth it. But I'm still constantly debating about "what do I WANT to do?" Because I like TOO MANY things. I like psychology, accounting, computer science, business, and languages. I love kids. I love to write. I love working with my brother in his woodworking business. AND I want to HELP people. I have NO IDEA which one of those is my best career path. Still don't, honestly. BUT I'm going to re-watch this video, try to use the tools this lady gave us, and be happy that at least I'm not the only one!!!

How to avoid quarterlife crisis:
1. Find meaningful work with personal and professional priority pies
2. Know how much you need to live to avoid overshooting and drowning in work OR undershooting and living a substandard life
3. Start somewhere. It doesnt have to be perfect. Waiting is procrastination.
- Be patient. Finding your life's work is a lifetime itself. Pursue professional opportunities with a sense of purpose.

This is actually a really good talk. Too bad they look so bored.

This is so me, I actually cried reading this. It wasn't an injury, it was the financial crisis. The career path (chemistry) that I had been working towards all through school fell out from under my feet just as I was entering the workforce. It took me years to get a job in my field and when I did it was part-time or temp. I became desperate and would take anything remotely relevant to just get a job. 5 years after graduation I'd only been employed in an actual lab a total of 2 years with another layoff on the way. So I went to get my masters and graduated with a slightly different degree more similar to my clients. Still, I could only get part-time work. FINALLY, I got a full-time job with benefits, but the company merges and my office is shut down. It took me 6 months to find another full-time job, which was again temporary. Now I'm 32 working on my PhD in biochemistry still confident that renewable biofuels are important. But there is this nag that by making any choice I've made the wrong choice and my cinfidance has suffered greatly.

I'm in my 50's and I had exactly what she is calling a quarter life crisis about 27 years ago. It isn't specific to millennials. I believe it is largely due to finding out that the way you dreamed life would be is very different from the way life actually is. It's the same phenomenon you experience when you have children. Or get married. Or any other thing you dream about before actually having the true experience. And coming out the other side with a different perspective and different understanding is called maturing. Once you do that, you get to watch every generation think they are the first ones doing it. :)

In middle school I convinced myself that I'd die from some natural cause or freak accident while I was still young. It kept me from committing suicide and I didn't have to worry about the world that I wasn't planning on staying in. I just existed and waited for an out. I'm twenty now and I've spent the last three years coming to terms with the fact that I outlived my ideal lifespan. I'm trying to do what I should have prepared for before but it's hard. I always wonder if other people felt this way, if maybe this is some form of "millennial depression" that's ultimately coming across as laziness.

Awesome, this talk made feel less alone and was so helpful. I loved it!

Even though getting up in the morning and putting on your gym shoes is the hardest thing to do, I keep doing it and somehow I come home feeling fulfilled. It is hardest to start. Be persistent.

"Don't kill time waiting, that's procrastination not exploration."

I'm 57 years maybe a little tired but I can do anything I have two son 18 & almost 25 & recently I realized how much more positive this generation feels about life overall then my generation, I'm happy humans are going in the right direction, so seniors start listening to the next generation, I say they are doing a better job, so might as well they will have it longer then us anyways. Thank you

My parents never had time for me so my whole life has always been based on my own choices. I can tell you - it doesn't feel as great as it may sound. Not having any direction, support and security is absolutely crushing. I'm 23 now in university that requires a lot of studying and this is exactly when I came to the point where I feel absolutely exhausted and empty. Absolute freedom isn't easy to handle. We have so many choices now and exploring and making decisions can be very tiring. Since this is the time in our lives where we have to make lifechanging decisions, it is indeed very stressful and huge responsibility.

We're stressed cuz the world is moving too fast and we can't keep up. Companies are asking for skills and qualifications that we don't posses nor have the time or funds to acquire.
