There is not a great secret to life mentoring. It just requires that the
mentor has experience, practical coaching skills, and techniques. It may be someone
in a business field with years of experience in sales, instructing new
business people in the tricks of the trade. The mentor uses practical advice,
experience and leadership in the role he or she is playing.
Perhaps it is better to call these individuals motivational speakers rather than life mentors because they are trying to help people achieve
goals on their own. They want to share their past experiences that have shaped them into
better people.
An example is a youth pastor who wants to share his or her life choices and
experiences. He or she seeks to be a good example for their group of kids.
The goal of coaching people is to motivate them. It is about being a healthy lifestyle coach so that you can lead by example. It would not do any good for a drug dealer to expound upon the evils of using drugs when he or she is peddling narcotics. It
takes living the life of an ethical person to show others how to live that same
motivated lifestyle.
You have the ability to help out those who are having trouble in their lives. You are helping
them achieve personal goals and make a better quality of life for themselves.
Coaching people is something that many individuals want because it gives them a
sense of purpose and a way to show others through impossible situations. There is
hope and triumph from any experience.
Are you struggling to find the best programs for the youth in your life? As
there are many different types of relationships and conflicts that co-exist in our day-to-day lives, there are also a
variety of methods in which to help cope with these everyday struggles.
Depending on the person, the problem, and the relationship, should
one choose the method which may work best for them. Here’re a few
guidelines on how to decide:
This program is best suited for single parent families, adopted families, broken homes, or youth who lack proper parental guidance and
lack of a nurturing environment. Today’s traditional family ideals have changed
drastically and have resulted in either single parent families, or lack of parental guidance due to both parents having to work out of
the home.
Due to such circumstances, youth can feel neglected and may hold feelings of guilt or
blame and thus may act out or show a lack of interest. Under these conditions, a one-on-one mentorship program may be the best choice.
This program promotes personal development and closeness in a
relationship that these youth need to feel to learn to trust adults again and
build strong relationships for their future.
Generally within these types of circumstances, youth need additional
support and confidence, which they may not have received in the past, to want to succeed in their future. A good source to check out for one on one youth programs
is a resource such as Big Brothers and Sisters or an independent mentorship
program.
This program may work best for the youth in your life who have a strong foundation at
home, but may lack in social development and enthusiasm for academic achievements. In this
type of program students usually gather in a learning environment, such as a school, and
they learn to work together and support each other throughout the different phases of
school transitions.
Help make the process easier and smoother for not only themselves but for each other.
There is still an older peer who contributes to guiding the youth, promotes unity amongst
the group. These programs may include after school programs or sports, youth clubs, and
life learning skills programs. An excellent resource for these types of youth programs is
to check out programs through your local YMCA.
This kind of program has been designed to target extremely troubled young people who have acted out and
have had previous encounters with illegal activities. It acknowledges the
“wrongdoing” of the law and promotes ways to correct and prevent such
things from re-occurring.
The meaning of the “Restorative” program is the word “restore” in which these programs
help to do just that. They are designed to restore previous relationships and rights
within our lives and within our society as a whole. With programs such as these, one might want to check out wilderness camp
workshops, or correctional facility programs offered in their area.
Do you want to be a mentor for youth? Although it can be very challenging at
times, it can also be very rewarding. Being a mentor for youth is important; especially in this day and age where our youth seem
to be getting neglected.
Although there will be many times where you won’t be sure what to do, and you’ll have to judge the situation
for yourself, the above guidelines should be helpful. In any case of
mentoring, whether it is adults or teenagers, you’re dealing with human
beings.
Creating a positive, creative environment for youth is essential to mentoring them.
By following the above guidelines and throwing in your common sense and
judgment, you will be able to create that environment for them. Being a mentor for youth will be a learning process, but one
that is well worth it!
