There is no app for job satisfaction and deep relationships.  Those take time and purpose.

You have to climb the mountain to get to the summit.

In other words, there are no shortcuts to get you the most important things in life.  The belief that there are can cause major stumbling blocks in creating a happy life.  Millennials seem to have this problem in spades and they do because we, as parents, have led them to believe it.

So – and this is for everyone – try something new. Turn off the red circles beside your phone calls, texts and Facebook. These distract you from the present moment.  Then sit down and make the conversation only about the person in front of you.

That’s when the magic happens.

If you are a millennial (or just confounded by one), watch this Simon Sinek video for more insight.
