    As a millennial, 36 years old, I work in the restaurant industry (fine dining and I make good money)… I have been contemplating on finishing my degree so I could have a secure job but this video has made me realize that that is going to do absolutely nothing for me. My passion is helping others, yoga, breath work, working out and nutrition. Also, I don’t think I want to work for someone else, I think that’s why I tolerate my job, the money and the fact that I basically work for myself.

    I never liked being told in high school that I had to pick one career because I was going to do it for the rest of my life. I thought how boring so of course careers and me haven't gotten along too well.

    I always wondered how older generations worked at one company for 30-40 years. With technology today, job stress gets higher and higher because all companies pay attention to is data and numbers aka KPIs. Older generations didn’t really have that stress to put up with. So there comes a point when you have to change where you work at sometimes just because the stress doesn’t match your pay grade.

      They worked at one company because it was Super easy.The Boomer generation screwed over Generation X. We got three generations of people at the moment competing for the same high end jobs, which is insane. The people with all the experience are being told they need to train/teach/mentor and do collaboration with people who just want their job.
      Boomers ruined this great nation.

    This is so true. Think of it like this: God is the King of Kings. That means he called us to be kings (or queens), NOT just subjugates. This means each and every one of us is called to be king of a thing. Lets say, welding for example. You are called to be king/queen of welding. That opens the door for doing ANYthing involving welding, whether it's working for someone as a welder or owning your own welding company, or even designing products FOR welders. When you know that God has made you King/Queen of your thing, it shifts your focus from "Being a good employee" or "Being a good worker" to building your kingdom for God's glory and allows you to take a whole new level on the work you do. Learning how you should build that kingdom requires remaining soft to Jesus' voice.

    Careers ended for most workers during the 2008 crash and the ensuing Recession -- that is when the trend towards temporary permanent employment seemed to start for a lot of people. At the seminars in the unemployment center in 2009 we were told that the future was the gig economy, and the days of working at the same company for more than 5-10 years were rapidly drawing to a close. I was sitting in a room full of laid off people, most of us with degrees and years of experience in various fields. As I looked around, I realized that what the seminar speaker was telling us was true. All this talent in the room, and yet we all knew that the days of a long career were over. And that tendency hasn't changed, for most workers out there. There are some who have secure positions in certain fields, but I think the majority of American workers know that any position they get in a field of work is temporary.

    I am a career coach at a two-year community college and trade school. Most of our students come from low-income households. I would love to be able to have these kinds of conversations with our students but most of them just want you to pick something for them to do. Couple that with the huge pressure from the federal government that says students must be enrolled in a program before they qualify to receive financial aid. This leaves most of our students scrambling to pick something, anything, just to be able to receive funds to pay for school. Some students even ask to help them sign up for classes before they've even picked a program! They give little to no thought about the contribution they want to make or the life they want to live. Their decisions are purely driven by haste and necessity.

    "Getting out of bed in the morning and contributing" doesn't come close to paying my mortgage. Were getting TIRED of canceling words simply due to a triggered generation. When you face reality, only then you know what is required to succeed. I went through 5 years of collage in computer science at night while driving a truck all day, then dropped out because it got in the way of my learning. Did I a retire early as a "contributor", NO, I retired as a Software Engineer. lol.

      Defining my CAREER took me into literal every corner of the word, from resorts in Australia and Aruba, Hong Kong to 3rd world countries in Nairobi and South America and Europe on my companies dime. If my foreign trips were longer than 2 weeks my company paid for my wife and family to go with for 25 years. I loved learning other cultures, and have friends literally around the globe.

    I like Ken alot and he isn't wrong about education in general, but he dogs on it a little to much in my opinion. It seems like it is every chance he gets, and I am a regular viewer. I am a PhD holder and I do not even disagree with Ken, but after a certain point it is like gaining any education is hard, don't always throw shade.

      Agreed, he knocks on education every chance he can. I agree that 70% of college majors are BS and that apprenticeships would be much better, but for the other 30% it is crucial.

      I think he feels like he has to be that hard on it because we've been wired for so long that "get a degree, any degree is better than no degree" which has led to the majority of degrees becoming meaningless. Some degrees are very useful and even necessary. But it seems most of those being pursued today aren't going to do anything but put people in debt.

    This might be one of the dumbest things I've heard on this show. People move to where the money is. Few people have passion in where they work but are driven by the amount of pay. For example software engineering. Once that stats paying an average wage people aren't going to flock to that "contribution". Ken would not do the same thing he is doing now at 20$ an hour. Stop the cap

      I saw a DR video about this. Ken was probably on the call too. They said to adjust your resume and suggested that you might be applying for the wrong position/level. It might be too big of a reach. It might just be a crappy market in your field right now too.

    The reality is that you go to work because you need money, and the employer needs your skill. Your purpose in life does not lie in your career. If you are good at what you do, you are more likely to enjoy it, and visa versa.
