How Can a Child Be Taught to Succeed in Today's World?

This is for Trainers/Mentors/Coaches/Teachers and Parents who want to make a difference in the lives of teens. 

QUESTION: “How can an adult best equip a child to succeed AND be happy in today’s society?” “How can a parent or a teacher instill self-belief in a student?”

ANSWER: Teach courses that will provide the following:

1) the EXPERIENCE of acceptance and validation from peers whether it be from their friends or totally different groups of kids,

2) that will enable each student to learn the job transferrable skills: the basics of communication skills—verbal and non-verbal, listening skills, attitude training, and people skills, and

3) the opportunity to learn their own “specialness” through discovering their own special gifts.

There is no better way to learn than to teach. 

Everyone lives their lives from their own individual framework, a set of guiding principles they may not even be consciously aware of. These principles are formed from childhood experiences, family interactions, schooling, friendships, religious and ethnic training.

Having our actions come from a framework consisting of honesty, integrity, and morality may explain why we react in a negative way to actions not consistent with those three principles, and there is a lot more to consider.
