Eager-Beavers
The young are competitive and ambitious. This makes them as hungry as a wolf for knowledge. They are eager learners. They are willing to put in the efforts to learn more and more. They are not satisfied with what they know.
They see themselves as fledglings who have a long way to go. Because they know they are new, they have a humble attitude. This humble attitude of a learner makes them quicker at tasks. Their eagerness to rise makes them smart and innovative learners.
Less of Commitments
Generally, people in their twenties and thirties have the least family and other commitments. They are able to devote more time to work than their older colleagues. Consequently, they are more focussed. Their work becomes a priority in life which is very important for effective working.
