Ways of Making Teenagers feel at ease -- AK Mishra's Art of Success for Teenagers



Courtesy: AK Mishra Library
Demands of more freedom and immense peer pressure stage teenagers on a collision course with their own parents and well-wishers. Where a teenager’s thoughts and imaginations, are feeding their high-headedness, parents want their kids to be more sensible and act maturely in this age. Parents expect them to be coherent and organic in their approach to build a successful and promising future. But while pursuing their dreams and meeting parents’ unrealistic expectations, they fall prey to modern lifestyle disorders like depression and anxiety, so it won’t be exaggeration when saying that teens nowadays are tight-walking on the ropes of pressure and discomfort, and it becomes imperative for the parents to figure out the ways to ease off their pressure caused due to scores of unavoidable factors including cut-throat competition, educational, emotional and social challenges. Parents can unequivocally play a pivotal role in bringing down unnatural anxiety level of their wards by spending quality time and lending a helping hand in hours of crisis. This also provides parents ample opportunities to unveil their wards behavioral and thinking patterns.
Simply put, teens may ward off unwanted stress by adopting healthy lifestyles, learning people and social skills and with the help and support of their parents that may be summarized as follows.
Parents should keep themselves abreast with the contemporary issues and trends
Young Children’s or teenagers’ knowledge about most careers and their occupational aspirations are heavily influenced by their geographic location, the occupation of their parents, their socio-economic status and their relationship with their parents along with their general awareness. Therefore the parents who keep abreast with the latest technologies, career trends, business, and employment can help their children prepare for better occupation, keeping in mind the areas of interest of their teenagers too.

Engage in outdoor physical activities
Although appearing trivial, but sedentary mode of life also heightens teen pressure level, so engaging in activities that foster or promote physical and mental health like yoga, sports or even walking can exponentially bring down the stress level and help teens stay fit, which in turn reduces the anxiety and unwanted depression and negative thoughts, while rejuvenating the body and opening up the mind to learn and grab new things.
Do things that make you happy
Beside physical activities, which are one of the best ways to cope up with stress, teenagers should try exploring new things and indulge in the activities which make them feel good. This could be going for outing with friends, listening to music, having a conversation with parents, going out for movies, or anything that bring little joys to them. At the time of stress, these activities actually help them becoming more calm and clear in various their approach to life.
Idolize and converse                    
Although for a teenager, it comes naturally to disbelieve that anyone else is more intelligent than him/her at this tender age, but believing in this fact can actually help them lessen their unwarranted vexation and can help them make healthy choices in life. Idol could be anyone, a teacher, elder sister or brother or parents. They may be able to help exploring newer opportunities in life that may actually excite a teenager and help reducing their stress level.
Appreciate your strengths
Although parents are the most efficient tool to keep boosting teenagers’ spirit and morale up, teenagers should also discover and acclaim their skills and hidden qualities. They should focus on what they think they are good at. Time to time appreciation by parents and their support help them understand and hone their respective skills effectively that help them in the long run. Appreciation by parents reinforces their belief in their inner and hidden capabilities. It can bring about substantial changes in the development and overall personality grooming.

Art Of Taking Ownership At Office - AK Mishra's Art of Success

Team building is a crucial aspect if one wishes to extract the best out of one’s’ workforce. Employees today are gauged on working smart than just hard for accomplishing the company’s goals. Though it contributes majorly in the way of highlighting an employees’ individualism, but it does not ensure the success of the company in a big way. It takes combined effort of the team which decides the future of the company.

One of the very many reasons, why companies use team building activities is because it’s a fun way of gauging employees’ leadership qualities. Other reasons are, improving communication skills and motivation, conducting regular ice-breaking sessions helps the employees to know each other better on their personal front as well as in professional front. Team building activities can be used by scaled organizations, to promote better teamwork in the workplace. Employers know that working in teams together in office further leads to the company’s success.


Of all the adages that have made their milestone run since the very beginnings known to mankind, team work and its effective contribution for any professionally structured or unstructured organization has been a positive one. Working in groups has been noticed as a better outcome over time than an individual performer, like the famous old saying of five-sticks. Improved sense of working in the society, with better accomplishment of company goals is a major plus. Team work attributes to positive impact on employees by boosting their morale and keeping their attitude in check.
The fact remains unchanged that team work has a positive yet modest impact on companies. Several researchers have found supportive documentations and practical samples across the range of studies ever conducted in a systematic range of work settings. Teams reflect the potential for enhancing performance and worker attitudes, but not all implementations have had the positive results anticipated by researchers or practitioners. Improving teamwork in the workplace can be achieved in several ways.

Implement Recognition Programs
 Quality teamwork should be encouraged by rewarding employees for their respective performance. Incentives to motivate the team by praising and issuing tokens of appreciation or perks should be borne by the project or company name thereby boosting teamwork among group members. This would motivate the employees and boost their morale to perform even better the next time. The team work goes hand in hand. Successful team work always proves to be a positive turn-around for the business. No extra-ordinary efforts need to go in building the team and co-jointly working together, it is the efforts that takes as a team that come out beautifully on completion of a task or a project, while attaining the company goals effectively and efficiently.



Encourage Social Activities
A trust factor is instilled among the employees when they know each other personally, and can openly discuss their problems among each other. Such a level of camaraderie has to be built among the teams. Grapevine communication can also help the employees to open up and even seek professional help laterally or above, in the hierarchical setting at the workplace. An office trip to the outskirts of town or a tourist locale would help them unwind and relax. It would help them come out of the formal official setting and interact openly with their colleagues, subordinates and bosses, alike.

Outline Clear Roles
Teamwork can be boosted by outlining clear-cut roles of each employee. At the start of any new project, a clear picture of the work should be allotted to each member involved keeping in mind the hierarchy and set of responsibilities so as to avoid confusion. Also should be kept in mind the caliber of the employees when listing out the tasks and deduce stress arising from unrealistic expectations. The employees can only push themselves to a certain level, after which they begin to wear out and become drawn to depression.

Mediate Disputes
Detailed instructions shall be given to remedy issues that arise among employees by boosting teamwork by empowering employees to solve issues efficiently and productively. The group should be encouraged to provide proper documentation of their problems without hesitation and any the problems should be rationed out.  
Teamwork has been at the center of debates as new forms of work structures are rooting in modern capitalist societies. The traditional Taylorist forms of work organizations are now breaking down into effective teams that further help the organization achieve its fiscal goals. Decentralization of responsibilities helps identify greater initiative among the team members and gives employees a better control of their jobs. It is not uncommon to outcry the vacuum between theoretical and practical approaches, but perhaps bridging this gap through team building can seemingly yet effectively boost professional productivity.

How a corporate training is different from the Training for students and Aspirers- AK Mishra’s Art of Success

In this fast growing world, everyone requires right kind of training and guidance to traverse the terrain of each particular part of their journey, be it in professional life or personal life. Hence, AK Mishra’s Art of Success introduces his 6 modules in his Specialization Course designed for the people from all walks of life. On a question raised by a journalist to Mr. AK Mishra, (The Inventor and Director of AK Mishra’s Art of Success) on “how a corporate training is different from the training for Aspirers “, Mr. AK Mishra explained, corporate training has totally a different concept than the training for Aspirers. An Aspirer could be someone who carries numerous dreams yet unable to focus on one, whereas some of the aspirers could be those who are focused but unable to get right guidance and positive uplifting in life, while on the other hand there are few aspirers who are not even aware of what they desire out of their life, and struggle looking for answer as to what is the purpose of their life.


Therefore the training for aspirers initiates with the realization of inner power and potential of a person lays buried in their deeper soul. Human mind is vast, with largely unexplained source of energy and power. In fact humans’ thoughts even have the power to alter the reality. So the aspirers training begin from those realizations. And then goes on with the realization of the very purpose behind their birth. What one actually desires from his/her life, what are those outer factors which are keeping him/her away to achieve those desires, which could be negative thoughts, less belief of parents on their kids, no financial support, less belief on own capabilities and other numerous things which come between the way of success in an aspirer’s life.
Therefore in my training session, I focus on eliminating all those wrong conditioning of human brain, while using my Human software development technique, I upgrade the mind of human with positive thoughts and right belief which ultimately makes an aspirer an achiever, said Mr. AK Mishra.
Whereas, a corporate training ensures that the trainee or the participants improve skills and enhance performance by focusing on professional development. So here, it’s completely different than the training for aspirers. Here, a person might be satisfied with his/her job or might not. So the corporate training initiates with understanding of the psychology of participants first, for which in AK Mishra’s Art of Success, we provide pre-evaluation form 1 week prior to the training to understand the participants’ psychology or his/her satisfaction level with the current job, the areas of improvement and such other things, as shared by Mr. AK Mishra. Hence, unlike the training sessions for aspirers, our corporate training circles around the ideation of sharpening participants’ skills and orient the attitude of participants so that they are capable of performing better in their roles. Corporate training covers leadership skills, sales generating skills, problem solving, multitasking, understanding return on investments, teamwork training, management skills and overall professional and personal development of the participant along with skill based training pertaining to each department.



Personality development imparts knowledge of right body language, right vocal variety, Personality Profiling and in depth discussion of the participant's goals in life, strengths and improvement areas, Intensive and extensive discussions to facilitate deeper understanding and learning of practical steps for self-improvement, which somewhere interrelated to professional growth, whereas,  training for aspirers focuses completely on personal development, making personal choices, taking right decisions, goal setting, realization of life’s purpose, and guidance to walk towards the path of their desired field.

The other set of trainings at AOS are designed in such a fashion so a teenager facing different relationship and personal nuances grows to be an aspirer enters a human relation evolving into a parental stage and develops in his professional capacity and finally reached the successful module; at every stage he has one common guidance – AK Mishra’s Art of Success. So at any given point in time in life all you have to do is explore yourself with us.
