  • Stick a soap bar in your mouth everytime you swear :)
  • Good old fashioned "swear jar"!! Every time you swear, put a quarter (or dollar by today's standards) into the jar and you'd be surprised how much you had by the end of the week! Being conscious of it is really all it takes though :)
  • Set aside a large jar. Every time you curse, put your extra pocket change in it. If you don't have change you'll have to use a bill. Or - just keep on F**king cussing!
  • why would you need to stop? if these words are in the dictionary then they have a specific purpose
  • Swearing is sometimes defined differently by different folks. These words get into diectionaries because they are used a lot and have definite meanings. That doesn't mean that some folks feel they are not to be used since they are not proper english or speech. The best way to stop using them is to learn substitute words to use and then practice their use. The dictionary can give you alternate ways of expressing you feelings. Practice is the key. You need to do a lot of it. Write out ways to say things in different words and then remember them. Just a suggestion. You will usually have the acceptance of more people if you do not use these words in general conversation. Their use can bar you from certian jobs, education, and company as a crude person. Therefore, learing how to carry on a conversation and discussion without using them is to your benefit.

  • Instructions from ehow: Step 1: Admit that you have a problem with profanity. Swearing is a bad habit. Before you can stop swearing, you must admit that you do it and that it is a problem. If you admit to yourself that you have a problem, it will strengthen your resolve to stop this habit. Step 2: Seek help for your problem. Inform someone who is close to you or someone whom you see very frequently of your decision to stop swearing. Then tell them that any time they hear you swear, they should please bring it to your attention. Step 3: Set goals for yourself. Setting reachable goals, such as keeping all profanity out of friendly emails and out of phone conversations, will help you see some progress in getting rid of your bad habit. Step 4: Find reinforcement for your behavior. Good or bad, you should reinforce what you’re doing. One way to do this is to set up a swear jar, where you drop in a dollar every time you use a swear word. Then you take all the money you’ve saved and buy yourself a gift when you finally break the habit. Step 5: Speak and write more slowly. If you slow down the pace at which you speak or write when sending emails or other friendly correspondence, you will have more time to think of words that will express how you’re feeling without using profanity. Step 6: Be aware at all times. If you are thinking about swearing all the time, you will be less likely to let the words slip out of your mouth. http://www.ehow.com/how_2034486_stop-swearing.html
