Does Gen Z suffer from over confidence?

It seems so, no?
In comparison to past generations, Generation Z are the most empowered group of individuals ever.
Gen Z are well-off, aware, connected, smart, and know what they want.
Often, they seem too passionate, too assertive, too pushy. Too often, they question norms and argue tradition. And they seem to want too much, too fast.
But that is only the surface.
Gen Z are also much more thoughtful and engaged with the world around them.
They are conscious that their parents’ and grandparents’ choices and actions have handed to them a divisive, polarized and suffering world.
They know that they have to drive immense change.
Even when so young, Gen Z feels a tremendous sense of responsibility.
They feel a sense of urgency.
So what is the truth?
Gen Z is actually worried, concerned and suffer from low self-esteem. They see the immensity of the task ahead of them and are not sure if they can succeed.
Gen Zers don’t show this. They are also courageous, determined and persistent.
