And then the great generation gave birth to
the boomers of which i will admit i am a tail end of the boomers and boomers our parents wanted us to have everything and they gave us everything that they could give us so that we could live a better life than what they had to go through because oh my gosh they had to live through uh world war ii and wow did that completely change the landscape especially of america and
And because the U.S.
ended up influencing World War II in a way that that war was won because of the atom bomb, it put us at the top of the powers of the world.
So now the U.S.
is going to kind of be a dictator of influence in the world because now we were thriving.
And so, you know, everything happens then.
But here's something else that you need to think about, is that the Great Generation had two very different hemispheres, and they had to show up and become disciplined and become organized in order to win that war.
And everybody had to get on board in order to do that.
And so the men went to the war.
Many women did as well.
But the women, they organized in the U.S.
in order to be able to take over all the jobs.
And so everybody became really very pragmatic and very left brain.
And the whole system became very left brain.
And then the war is over and everybody comes back and then the boomers happen.
And the boomers are also a left brain dominant because we get that now from our parents.
But then the boomers had children and the children are the millennials.
And the technology of what happened for the early millennials was the creation of really the first little robot.
