Is it time to channel our energies into multiple job roles like the new cult of multitasking millennials?
There are so many things wrong with the millennials, also known as the Generation Y (age 18-34), and yet there’s something so admirable about them too. They are the dreamers, the wanderers, the drifters – the ‘Peter Pan’ generation that still possesses their childlike wonder and looks at this world like it’s a place with infinite opportunities. They’re often criticised because they refuse to ‘settle’ or growup, but that’s probably because they’re a free-spirited pack that refuses to settle for the ordinary, the mundane or the everyday ho-hum. This generation is led by icons like Mark Zuckerberg, Kim Kardashian and Lena Dunham – the ones who’re living proof that you just need to follow your instincts and the world around you will bend to accommodate you. Look around you. Millennials may not act like stereotypical adults but they’re an incredibly enterprising lot. A person sitting across you on the daily metro ride could be Snapchatting their 10k followers right this minute, pimping a hip new brand of sunglasses (for commission) without even going to a business school. Millennials take college degrees as light suggestions along their way to creating unthinkable mini-empires. Another millennial-next-door may look like she spends her parents’ savings on her very expensive, organic, super-food addiction but she just might be a digital ninja who has a website, an app, a delivery service, and her spare room listed on AirBnB. Multiple income streams are the only way that Gen-Y can keep up with its indulgent ways in the current turbulent economic atmosphere.
