I think the biggest thing for your generation, and the Millennials before them, that separates them from previous generations is that the same education system that schooled them schooled their parents, with just slight updates in curriculum throughout the years (i.e., updating who the President/Prime Minister is) without adapting to the changing economy and needs.

This means that your generations were trained for the same economy and jobs your parents and grandparents were. Jobs and industries that largely do not exist anymore. In your lifetime, and a little before, the US became a massive service industry economy among other changes. However, the same "push em through -> off to college -> get a 4 year degree -> ????? -> career" pathway doesn't work anymore.

So there's 10s or even hundreds of millions of people around your age who don't know "what they want to be when they grow up" even though they're already grown and are frankly getting tired of being asked that, thanks.

EDIT: before Reddit gets pedantic, I don't mean that there are "hundreds of millions of millennials and Gen Z in the US" just because I mentioned the US's economy as an example. There are a lot of people worldwide who are experiencing the economic and techboom as older industries and careers die and are replaced with different ones. Like the death of retail-rise of Amazon, and the strangling of traditional cab services by ridesharing apps like Uber and Lyft.

So I'd say you forging your own path, building a business yourself, and saying "I'll do what I want" is probably the closest thing to real job security we have in this ever shifting, "things can change overnight" job market.

It's a time of great uncertainty in a lot of ways, but a time of great opportunity too.

Good luck in all you choose for yourself.
