Stress takes its toll on every generation.

If you’re at a point in your career where you are in a leadership role, you know stress. You know who else knows stress? The guys and gals at the bottom of the totem pole. I know some folks who wistfully wonder about ditching their top managerial positions for a “less demanding” role. Sound familiar?

I hope not. It’s a fantasy. The bottom-rung workers are no less stressed than the top dogs. You know who else is stressed? The guys and the gals stuck in the middle. They’re stressed too. Everyone is stressed — it’s just different licks off of the same liver-flavored ice cream cone.

According to a Pew Research Center report published earlier this month, America’s environmental movement has a problem. Millennials aren’t crazy about being labeled as “environmentalists.”

Strike that image of young, hearty, idealistic hordes mobilized to get in tune with nature and preserve our natural resources for the present and generations to come. Not interested. Or, at least they’re not as interested as their forerunners.

Older Americans are more likely to identify themselves as “environmentalists” than are younger ones. Have we lost the war of the hearts and minds when it comes to taking care of our environment?

Advice to help younger generations successfully navigate their careers

Author Tim Ryan is a Gen X-er and a “big fan of Gen Y.” He wants to share some words of encouragement about work and career happiness. Ryan has some great ideas in the form of tips he shares with Gen Y-ers. He wants Millennials to maximize their work lives and personal fulfillment.

That’s great.

His advice, while aimed at Millennials, would do well for Gen X and Baby Boomers still in the workplace. I would even venture to say that his “six tips for career happiness” could benefit from a little real-world perspective of the Baby Boomer generation, in addition to Ryan’s helpful career life tips.
