Cultivate your child’s weakness that holds enormous strength

Every Human being is unique with some unique personality traits. The creator has created some personal identity and qualities in each one of us, yet delegated the responsibilities to us human beings to discover that power God has bestowed to us in order to achieve that immense triumph of life.
As parents, we know our children are unique, but our lack of knowledge and guidance makes us unable to help them realize how special they are and can become. Parents must know how to cultivate the gifts within each of their children. We merely rely on schools to help them discover their life’s goal, and as they grow up, parents end up worrying about their Children's future goals and decisions.
The job as parents is a never ending process, most of the time parents are aware of the wildest dreams of their kids, yet are powerless to tell them how to achieve those desires. Even the wildest dreams or most annoying traits of a kid can bring out the most beautiful personality of your child. Hence, instead of trying to abolish a child’s annoying personality, parents should harvest the spiritual gifts that accompany such traits.

AK Mishra's Art of Success


“Every flower fertilized in a well organized garden flourish as a wildflower. Similarly Children’s unmanageable and sometimes annoying characteristics can help them raise as a successful personality. That annoying trait might be a unique strength waiting to be trained and shine. So often, the attribute that exhibits as a child’s greatest weakness holds the potential to be his enormous strength."

Hence, remember to cultivate and embellish instead of eradicating, whenever your child irritate you with his/her annoying traits.. 
  • Blandly help your sensitive child to be emotionally strong and practical at some walks of life and not to melt down in every situation,  but do not completely try to wipe out his/sensitivity. Try to cultivate his/her sensitivity in pertinent expressions, which can help her to understand the emotions of others, you might have a future psychologist or counselor at your home. 
  • Blandly help your talkative child to be polite and stay quiet when it requires to be quiet, and what to talk in what situation, but also cultivate her love to talk by putting up a topic he/she loves to talk about. You might have an intellectual personality at your home.
  • Blandly help your imaginative child to not deeply drenched in his/her imaginative world, but do not ignore when he/she talks about her imagination taken from a book, dreams, etc. You might have a future painter or  writer at your home.
  • Blandly help your dominating child to not become too aggressive in all personal affairs, but also cultivate his aggressiveness and dominating characteristics by delegating appropriate responsibilities. You might have an entrepreneur, CEO, or an IAS in your home.
  • Blandly help your overly energetic child to be still and calm when required, but also flourish his/her love of doing energetic activities by indulging him in the activities which channel that energy in more productive ways. You might have a future Businessman or a player in your home.


Undoubtedly, parenting is a tough job, but proper guidance and love can give you a lifetime satisfaction and a beautiful life to your kid.

Discover your Passion-- AK Mishra's Art of Success

We are always in search for that one mantra that will lead us to the success path. However, there is no secret that you need to know in order to achieve it.If you read success stories, you will notice that all successful people have a certain pattern of thinking and you can become like them once you start thinking like them. Lives of great and successful people show that they rose to great heights even after facing devastating and unnerving defeats. Successful people are extraordinarily passionate about achieving their goals which otherwise was considered unachievable by others. Passion gets you what it takes to march ahead in the moments of disappointments, crisis and if none of your plans and ideas pan out. So it’s important to discover your passion to lead a meaningful and successful life. Below listed are the points that help you in achieving success and keep up the pace with the leading world.



1.       Slow Down
When we slow down, we discover the best version of ourselves and somehow we find the answers we are looking for. Slowing down helps you to calm the outside voices and listen to yourself. Going for daily walks, practicing yoga and spending some time on meditation can miraculously help contacting the inner self.

2.       Own Your Uniqueness
We all possess unique blend of skills, creativity, strengths, talent and wisdom and exist here for a reason. We all have something great to offer, the need is to recognize, own and accept your uniqueness which is how we can give our best to the world.

3.       Cultivate Confidence
Believing in yourself is an attribute that can radically step up your potential to accomplish a task. There is a chance that you may fail but it will be impossible to succeed if you don’t believe in yourself.

4.       Find the themes
A set of recurring themes exist in everybody’ lives and it’s important to recognize them to decide if we have to follow or change them. What lessons or themes repeatedly show up in your life? Have you figured out the areas of your life which is full of discomfort and pain or filled in with joy and light?Answers to these questions are vital to discover your passion.

5.       Write
Spend a few minutes each day to pen down your thoughts without getting influenced from the outside world.It’s an established fact that ideas flow more freely when we map out nothing. New thoughts may spring up out of the blue and it becomes easier to connect the dots.

6.        Focus on the fun
We concentrate more on to-do lists and details than what is more important. Most of us are entangled in the net of unrealistic expectations that we set for ourselves and never enquire into most important questions like what do I love to do? What makes me smile?

7.       Push past fear

Most of us harbor a widely-prevalent misconception that we will go after what we want once we have more time, more money or more experience, but the truth is, that will never happen. It’s only when we do away with these fears and understand how they are pulling us back that we can start moving forward.

Happy Teacher's Day

When God wanted to bless us, he manifests himself in the form of a teacher. Teacher is humble, noble, sweet and supreme being on the earth. He dispels doubts and instills faith in our heart. He reinforces our belief on the right things and buttresses our courage to take on the challenges of life. It’s not possible to profile a teacher, owing to the greatness they possess. Teacher is the emblem of perfection and perfects us as well. He fixes our purpose in life and helps us defeat the insurmountable barriers of life.


Teachers can turn mundane and banal into great and gigantic- help us bring out the best and grandeur in us. By their grace, we learn to unlock the hidden potential in us and climb the ladder of success. In fact, you cannot get a fix on anything without teacher’s help. Only a teacher can measure teacher’s greatness. 

Teachers give wings to our dreams, shape our future and lay foundation for our prosperous and successful future. They instill faith in our hearts and help us overcome insurmountable barriers. AK Mishra’s Art of Success expresses gratitude and respect towards our beloved teachers and wish all of you a very happy Teacher’s Day.
