Research paper Where does my generation find success? In goals. In my generation is common to see people around my age to want success based on goals they see on pictures from other people's life. In my opinion that's good and not good considering that everyone has similar goals like wanting to have a job or wanting to get married to have a nice house and a lot of money. The goals my generation wants are the same but a little different. For example, let's say that someone posted a picture on social media such as instagram, facebook, twitter, tumblr, the list goes on. The point is what the picture is about, it could be about someone eating ice cream and this people will literally make it an ice cream goal which in my opinion is ridiculous for the reason that you should have your own likes and not what someone else likes. “ In order to succeed we must first believe that we can” said Nikos Kazantzakis.

My generation finds success in graduating from high school others find it in not getting pregnant in high school. Some might find it in having a lot of money or getting a career and having a family or finding someone worth it of spending their time on. Taking in consideration of how my generation is there’s a lot of ways on how you can find success.
