Why the tips are necessary for the teenagers?
Because an actor playing a role can’t judge whether he is behaving decently or not, only audience can tell, so the tips are needed. The age of teens is full of energy but most of the time it is unchannelized and causes more harm to the students. To aware them what is the right attitude towards life in this busy world tips are very essential.
The First Impression
The first impression which a student makes upon others assumes great significance and importance.
Neatness of dress, cleanliness and good posture will help them to create everlasting first impression.
Solution : Here personal hygiene counts a great for the students.
Internal Beauty
It is not the external beauty but the personal magnetic charm that counts.
Remember, everybody likes the things those are positive, favourable, promising and hopeful in life.
You will not like to have dealings with a friend who is pessimistic, gloomy and afraid.
A smile instantly changes one’s personality. It creates and develops a friendly feeling.
A smile can also take out the sting of a complaint, refusal or even criticism. But the smile must be sincere and come from within.
Solution : To bring automatic and natural smile on your face, you have to groom yourself with positive and cheerful thoughts.
Words You Utter
Tone : Firstly, words are the media to convey your thoughts and feelings. A wailing or whining voice has an instant depressing effect on those who hear it.
Simultaneously a pompous and superior tone invariably produces adverse effect.
Solution : Friendliness can be relayed by the mere tone of your voice.
Choice of Words : Secondly, the choice of words matter a lot. Don’t use long bombastic words. At the same time repetition of stereo typed catchy words, set phrases and cheap imitative expressions will indicate poor educational background and scarcity of vocabulary.
Solution : The student should speak with confidence, coherence and enthusiasm. In this way he will be able to create and hold the interest of other people.
To Get Recognition
All of us are human beings and are hungry for recognition and appreciation.
There is a saying, “To have a friend you must be a friend.” In order to arouse your friend’s interest in you, you must first get interested in him.
Solution : You must be genuinely interested in your friend’s requirements, ideas, aspiration, views, conversations, environment and so on.
Courtesy
The best single quality which lifts one above the crowd is the courtesy. Courtesy is kindness revealed in action and etiquette is merely a collection of accepted norms of behaviour that help to make courtesy easy and natural.
Solution : Greeting warmly with a smile, speaking in a friendly voice, saying polite words like “Thank you” to friends, teachers, non-teaching staff of the school who serve you at the counters, who offers you a seat, who step aside to let you pass and even those who appreciates you etc.
This type of behaviour shows courtesy.
Wide Knowledge
The student should develop wide interest and extensive knowledge. The advantage of this is that one is never at a loss to begin and continue an interesting conversation.
Solution : Keen observation, regular reading and ardent listening news, geographical channels etc are good methods for the student to develop his knowledge.
Expert Yourself in Your Hobby
Try to specialize yourself in your favourite field which will help you to get respect of others.
The student should thoroughly master the subject of his choice. It may be his subject, hobby or interest. Try to be a real authority in your chosen field.
Solution : For this, the students should read every possible book on the subject. These days CD’s available in the market and Internet is great help to the students. They may read the magazines devoted to it.
Avoid Complaining and Criticizing
People are varied, unpredictable and fascinating. One should not judge them or try to reform them but understand them.
Solution : One must, therefore avoid criticizing others in public or far that matter even privately. Instead one can tactfully and diplomatically offer suggestions.
Goal and Discipline
The most important technique to get success in life is to develop disciplined habits. The students should lead a disciplined life. The one thing they must bear in their mind is that they needed to be dominated by their goal and must discipline their life so that it can be achieved.
Solution : We should not waste or fritter away the precious time at our disposal. The time should be planned and controlled. Always be punctual. Never keep others waiting. Never postpone things.
Lack of Self Confidence
During teenage many students have inferiority feelings and lack self confidence. This may be due to childhood disappointments, poor or may be due to certain shortcomings in formal and informal educations.
In these cases the afflicted students may turnout to be sadist. When either before or after college will be placed in a position of authority, they will become critical of their subordinates and reveal a marked tendency to find faults with them and will find it difficult to trust anyone.
They will not converse freely. All the while they will be worried inwardly that others will be thinking poorly of them. It may ultimately lead to mental frustrations and severe disappointments.
Solution : Luckily it can be cured completely, fully and effectively. The first thing to do is to find out as to why a student feels inferior. He must carry out a thorough and objective self analysis.
It will have its beginning or origin somewhere often in one’s childhood. A feeling of neglect, parent’s discrimination among the kids, child abuse, adverse criticisms, physical shortcomings and social distinctions.
