Dear GenXYZ Project,
I'm a 24 year old girl in desperate need of your advice. I can't seem to hold down a job, boyfriend, or really anything for that matter. I thought life would begin after I graduated college, but ever since I finished school, things are more complicated/confusing than ever! How do I get things back on track?

Lil' GenXYZ: Rachel, check out our post "The Case Against College" as well as "Graduation from the Quarter Life Crisis". You're definitely not alone in what you're going through. In fact, you're more the rule than the exception - hang in there!
GenXYZ Junior: My advice is to set one goal for yourself every few months and work your rear off to acheive it. Don't set yourself up for failure, like making your goal "find the perfect career by my next birthday", rather choose something that's within reach. This will help you realize that you are capable of doing whatever you set your mind to and you'll find yourself along the way.
GenXYZ: Hmm, have you been tested for ADHD? Adderall works wonders for those unable to hold down jobs. On a more serious note, stop whining and start doing something...anything. Your 20s are the time to try anything you want, screw up anything you want, then find what you want.
