Not quite advice, but was a running theme of what many millenial-generation kids were told in the US (think "Mr. Rogers" era).
Many argue it's made use seem overly demanding to others, particularly bosses.
- benreyes 16y agoThough I think some of the thinking given to millenial-generation kids in making them think that they can be what ever they want to be for example an astronaut, is still useful. It's just most people forget about it or give up on that thinking. The naivety in thinking that you could become an astronaut or something special will probably mean you are more likely to reach your goal or at least go further than other people. I guess if you believe you have the ability to change the world, you probably will.
- seltzered 16y agoyeah, I agree. I thought about this today and realized some of the worst advice we got was from our middle school principal telling us to be well-rounded and develop real-world skills. It's the opposite of forcing yourself to focus on things that make you be "special". And it made me more concerned about fitting into little social groups than focusing on what I want to do.
