DISCLAIMER: If you picked up this book hoping for the latest how-to-sell-more-garbage-to-young-people guide, then Im going to save you some time. Stop reading here. There is an ever-growing stack of books about how to market to Millennials.

This isnt one of them.

INTRODUCTION

Millennials, I have bad news and good news.

The bad news is, according to the media, you are the most lazy, narcissistic, entitled, self-absorbed generation ever to walk the earth.

The good news?

This entire book is about you.

But heres why its different from everything else youve probably read.

The vast majority of what is published about your generation is an overt or covert attempt to teach people older than you how to hack your brain to make you do something, sell you something, or convert you to some form of belief system. I know this because Ive surveyed literally thousands of articles, books, websites, and blogs on Millennials. And its safe to say, Millennials, that you have been strategically targeted by the largest corporate-controlled media manipulation machine in history.

And that is just the beginning.

Even the established frame of reference for you, Millennials, the one in which you are lazy, narcissistic, entitled, and self-absorbed, is a purpose-driven creation. Behind its rinse-lather-repeat retelling by the media machine is an insidious goalto disenfranchise, disempower, and shut you down before you even walk through the door.

Thats why this book is a deviation from the mountains of regurgitated clickbait about you. Instead, its a formula for how you accelerate, amplify, and strengthen what you are consciously and unconsciously doing: disrupting the world we once knew.

THE GREAT MILLENNIAL AWAKENING

By the time these words are printed, all the members of your generation will have crossed the threshold into voting age . By 2020, when the next US presidential election takes place, along with hundreds of state and local elections and the redrawing of countless voting districts, you, Millennials, will be the largest voting bloc in the United States.

For Millennials and people of all generations living in the United States, the 2016 US presidential election was a clarion call for action. On the morning of November 9, 2016, one thing came into sharp focus: our democracy is an illusion.

In our republic, and the money for which it stands, there are approximately four hundred registered lobbyists for every member of the House and Senate.

Thus, in 2016, the popular vote, also known as the will of the people, was ignored. Whether you love her, hate her, or are indifferent, the fact remains that Hillary Clinton received over 2.5 million more votes than her opponent. But the woman Americans elected by popular vote did not become their president. Instead, a real estate mogul named Donald Trump was placed in the White House by a rigged system.

But the powers that be didnt count on one thing: they didnt realize that in rigging an election, they would awaken a sleeping leviathan.

More than any other group of people, your generation holds the power to determine the future.

With so much responsibility and so much at stake in our world, there are signs that a Great Millennial Awakening is under way. Inside of this awakening, more and more of you are finding your passion and marrying it with educations and jobs in which you are actively altering the structures of power. For millions of others, who find yourselves either unemployed or in a gig or job that doesnt change the world, you are engaging in online platforms from Change.org to Facebook initiatives.
