My generation is the
generation of ever changing stuff and small attention spans.
New Netflix series every day ,
new restaurant every month, new songs, new cool techie gadgets, new
applications, new phones, travelling to new places every 2 months. This is the
generation of wandering minds that want to experience new things every day!
Now, how can you
expect us to work - at same times, same place, with same people, and same work.
The ideas I get
online - have a positive mindset, build your office nest, drink lots of water,
do what you love and blah..
But even with my
positive mindset, I just get bored sitting at the same desk for 40 hours a
week.
Even with my office
nest, I no longer feel like to talk about the same problems - of
work and jams.
And what water can
do, when even coffee fails!
And my work aligns
to my passions, but then I still don’t want to do it every other day.
Bottom line -
Anything that is same and follows a strict schedule will become monotonous for
my generation.
Rule - Get rid of
your schedules.
Going further, I am
going to start few experiments on myself - change location (open spaces, café
etc), change timings (sometimes morning, sometimes evenings), change how you do
work (write instead of excel, ppt) . The idea is not to shun work but to make it different every day for my ever wandering mind!
Let's see if that
helps!
