10 Tips for Taming Your Tongue
Recognize that swearing  DOES DAMAGE
You probably swear because….. It is easy to express ANGER Fun, It is Fashionable Breaks rules, and  You believe it will reduces anger and pain.
But the NEGATIVES outweigh the POSITIVES You really DON’T WIN an argument by swearing.  You DON’T PROVE that you are smart or articulate.
You DON’T EARN respect or admiration.  YOU DON’T motivate,  you intimidate.  Swearing DOESN’T get you hired,  promoted, or  romantically connected.
2.	Start by eliminating casual swearing.
Pretend that your sweet little grandmother or your MOTHER or FATHER is always next to you.
3.	Think positively.
Look to the bright side. Develop a "can do" attitude.  Worry only to the point that motivates you to prepare for the problem, then hope for the best.
A positive mental attitude not only STOPS lots of swearing but also… it brings you SATISFACTION and BRIGHTENS your personality.
Practice patience.
When you are stuck in line or in traffic, ask yourself if a few more minutes matters.  Be honest -- does it really matter? If so, and you have no control of the situation,
Think of alternative words.
Take the time to develop your own list of alternatives to the nasty words you now use, relying on your own intelligence, good books,
Select a few powerful or even funny words, and get in the habit of substituting them for swear words.  They might not give you satisfaction at first, but they will eventually.
Cope, don't curse.
We live in an imperfect world, yet our expectations continually increase. Each day can be filled with frustrations, delays, disappointments and Anger.
The fact is, we have to deal with them anyway.  So stop cursing and learn to cope.
Believe that even the smallest problem a challenge, and feel proud of yourself for taking care of it cheerfully and efficiently.
Stop complaining.
Before you start griping or whining about something, remind yourself of a very important reality: No one wants to hear it! Why would they?
Avoid complaining about matters that you and the people with you, have no control over.
For all other complaints, Try to offer a SENSIBLE solution. Others will admire your common sense, wisdom and calm approach to the problem.
Make your point politely.
Think of the response to what you are about to say,  DON’T USE ; “I DON’T Care”  Instead say: "It really doesn't matter," or
"I think my way is faster." This last reply is a justification that the other person might appreciate. Take the time to make your point in a mature and convincing manner.
Think of what you should have said instead.
It is easy to blurt out a swear word at an inappropriate time, before you have a chance to consider the impact.
If you make a statement that you later realize was negative, or rude, think of how you could have phrased the statement. Over time, these exercises will train you to think and act differently.
Work at it. [ To which we might add, Pray! ]
Breaking the swearing habit might prove to be no easier that losing weight,  giving up cigarettes, or  correcting any other habit.  It takes practice, support from others, and a true desire to be a better person --
not only by controlling your language, but  The emotions that make you to swear.
Here are a few exercises to condition yourself:
Think in clean language, and switch negative thoughts into positive solutions. • 	Plan ahead what you will say and how you will say it.
REMEMBER
A little word dropped carelessly is like a lighted match
