The Future of Millennials
The future of Millennials, the generation born between 1981 and 1996, is hard to predict, just like the Internet was not predicted or known in 1969.
There will be new methods for earning money, new places to live, and new ways to be old in the world. And there will be challenges too, like the ever-accelerating climate crisis.

Genetic Make-up Evolution
In 50 years, our genetic make-up and gene-related technology will evolve to be more than just a record. It will be useful and relatively inexpensive.
This way we can figure out what to plan for ourselves, based on how we are, genetically: We’ll probably be able to intervene on the genetic predisposition of people (on conditions like Alzheimer’s and cardiovascular disease).

Retirement: An Optional Luxury
The concept of retirement and getting the pension seems outdated and unnecessary in this age of everything being in constant motion, thanks to the digital economy and the app-based world around us.
Retirement would be an option, something a few can afford, while the rest can continue to work, albeit in a different way, thanks to technology.

Keep Working and Learning
A life-long commitment to working and learning new skills will be one of the top needs of the future.
Unlike previous generations, millennials cannot just be farmers or postmen that work until the age of 60 and then retire, not knowing anything else apart from the one job done their entire lifetime.

Belongingness
Humans have an inbuilt drive to belong and be accepted. This makes us care about what others think of us.

Staying Clear of Imaginary Groups
Out of novelty and boredom, we started being part of 'imaginary' groups just because it is cool to do so. There are groups in social media, or in clubs/bars, in which people join due to desire to be accepted.
If we have our friends, family, a career and a few hobbies, we don't need to attach our identity to a group.
Mission = Value + Vision
Discovering your core values, and having a vision is key to finding your mission.
You have to know where you want to go (Vision) and create a road map that takes you there (Values). Having these foundational pillars in your life makes us less susceptible to what others think and do.

Be a Professional Cheerleader
Charismatic people offer encouragement instead of skeptically listening to people’s goals and ideas. Find ways to encourage people while still holding them accountable:
Charismatic People Bring People Together
Charismatic people have lots of connections and share them regularly. Highly charismatic people are not only great at meeting new people, but also sharing their talent with their connections by introducing people who they know will get along well.
This quality is part of the reason charismatic people are such sought after connections; they spread their social wealth.
Likability is Key To Your Own Charisma
Likable leaders earn the trust of their team members and treat them well, and that makes the team’s performance better.
Teams with likable leaders tend to be more stable long-term because of lower turnover rates and are also better with changes since they are more likely to have employees committing to adopting to new ways.

The W’s you control
Money is multiplied in practical value depending on the number of W’s you control in your life:
- What you do
- When you do it
- Where you do it
- With whom you do it.
Fundamental rules for success
- Retirement is the worst-case-scenario insurance.
- Interest and energy are cyclical. Alternating between periods of rest and activity is essential.
- Focus on being productive instead of busy.
- The timing is never right. Waiting for ‘someday’ means that you will take your dreams to the grave.
- Ask for forgiveness, not permission. Try it and then justify it
- Emphasize strengths. Don’t fix weaknesses.
- When things are done to excess, they often take on the characteristics of their opposites.
- Money alone is not the solution. We often use not having enough money as a scapegoat for not self-reflecting and working out what we want out of life.
- Relative income is more important than absolute income. Relative income looks at both money and time.
- Distress is bad, eustress is good (the type of stress that helps you grow).
