Begin SHAMELESS PLUG:

Are you an aimless twentysomething? Are you feeling misdirected, unappreciated, uninformed, or shiftless? Are you unsure what to do with your life, or in your job/career? Then this book might be for you.

Don’t laugh, baby-boomers. I’m a firm believer that the quarterlife crisis is indeed real… and I say this because it’s the most valid explanation for what I’m feeling at this very moment.

So how does a quarterlife crisis differ from a mid-life crisis? Age, for one. The mid-life crisis affects folks in their 40’s and 50’s, and it happens when these individuals get to the point in their life where everything has settled down and becomes, well… boring. The mid-life crisis happens, and suddenly, there’s a guy in his 50’s tooling around in a Porche.

The quarterlife crisis affects those generation X-and-Y folks who are just starting out their lives after college, or are having trouble trying to find their aim or passion in their lives. The result? Job-hopping, career changes, deciding to go back to school, and wishing that someone would help out and offer some career/life guidance.

With that said, I’m only three chapters into the book, and I’m already finding it quite useful. Pick one up on Amazon- a used copy will set you back about three bucks.
