How Good Decisions Are Translated into Success by High School Assembly Speakers?

Helping high school students reach their full potential is a monumental task for teachers, parents, administrators, and other authority figures. In a world where teens are so often surrounded by negative messages, inspiring them to tap into their positive potential, make good decisions and follow a path that will lead them toward success takes creativity, and an ability to connect. High school assembly speakers can help teens translate their own good decisions into success.

When high schools arrange for youth motivational speakers who focus on the positive results of good decision-making instead of the obvious negative consequences poor choices can produce, they open the door for results. While no two speakers will take exactly the same approach, those who focus on positives tend to inspire students by:

• Showing them that ordinary people can accomplish incredible things – Positive motivational speakers don’t just share what they’ve achieved, they explain how they did it. That includes fessing up to all the pitfalls and failures on the road to success. When speakers are able to share their human side, they inspire teens by enabling them to see that good decisions and hard work can help anyone reach for an attain goals.

• Empowering them to move beyond obstacles – Failure and the fear of it is a powerful demotivator. Inspirational youth speakers who share not only their stories, but also their journeys help students see there are positive ways to come back from pitfalls and paths over, around or through obstacles.

• Daring them to set goals – Dreams are just that, but goals are concrete pronouncements. When teens are challenged to set them for themselves, they can begin to explore the path forward and the positive decisions that must be made to help along the way.

High school assembly speakers who are able to connect with teens by sharing their successes and the paths they followed to attain them, open kids’ eyes to the possibilities. In doing so, they demonstrate how good decisions can and do translate into success. Rather than serve as cautionary tales, speakers who take this approach motivate teens to set their own goals and map out positive plans to achieve them.
