Nutrition and Posture training (which involves stretching & strengthening)
Stop thinking you need to be taller to achieve in life.
Advertisement media potrays this all the time.
If you're chasing a girl that will only accept a certain height. There is something wrong with her.
You got plenty of growth years left. The final years of growth in a male is like 25. Even if you don't grow taller than 5'8 don't let it consume you. You'll develop a Napolean complex.
And people who think they're better than someone else just because they're a certain height need to realise it doesn't replace talent or character.
Bruce Lee was 5'8
Tom Cruise and Robert De niro are 5'8
do you think they let their skeletal structure stand in the way of their career? God NO!
Those were just a few examples.
The proof is in the pudding, not in the image portrayed.

Make it a point to pray Amitabh Bachchan everyday before you start excercising.Go to a foot-ball ground in the evening , stand near the goal post and do minimum 40-50 pull-ups by swinging yourself up and down over the bars of the goal-post.Play basket-ball everyday for at least one hour.Last but not the least, do not read any books on"how to get taller in 7 days" or "how to get taller in 15 days" .Lot of such books are available through VPP nowadays.

hahaha ,
you are already taller than me and I reach my height limit...
anyways, you are 14 so you still have plenty of inches to grow(at least 3-5 inches plus some more depending on your body)
You can try doing sports like basketball, eating lots of foods, lot of calcium, proteins, try stretching your body and be more flexible that should get you taller in no time.
Also be sure to have a positive mind and feel taller.

The fastest way is to check out your posture. Walking tall makes you look taller.
There are a lot of good DVDs and exercise programs that help posture - Alexander technique and Pilates are great, but there are others.
If you stand well, your clothes hang better and your midiriff looks leaner, so you don't just look taller, you look sleeker.

Without exercise, it is highly unlikely you will grow taller.
