Most of the time you can't.  Its better just to humble yourself and suck it up.

Of course it depends on what the habit it is and why you have it but one simple approach involves the use of rubber bands. You place the band around your wrist and when you are tempted to do something you shouldn't do you pull the band back and snap it on your wrist. Don't try to kill yourself just use enough pressure to remind yourself. Many people find this technique works well and fast.

I think that continuous usage or even any vulgar usage of curse words shows a lack of intelligence. If someone is upset shouldnt they be able to explain it using non profane words? Anytime I hear anyone, man or woman, using foul language not only does that person appear much less attractive, but it offends me. I have small children as well. They dont need to hear it, frankly no one needs to hear it. The way in which someone speaks reveals not only their competence of the language they are using but their intelligence alltogether.\n\nI completely agree with you.

I doubt it's a curse/hex. Just think of it this way: If you've had a string of bad luck lately, that probably means that you're overdue for something really great. Keep your eyes open and you may soon come across a wonderful opportunity. I'm sure it will more than make up for it.

I am writing this but I hope you think it funny..."Once picked up you cannot get rid of a bloody habit." If not the answer at least funny.

My husband likes to curse.  I tell him it makes him look immature and undignified.  I personally think that's why he does it, because it irritates me.  I only get really mad when he says something and my 2-year old repeats it!

Are you nervous?? I used to do that whenever I was anxious or nervous about something. I would catch myself doing it and eventually I stopped. You just have to make a conscious effort not to do it.

It's sad to hear people swear and to know that is is more the rule than the exception anymore.  It makes a person look unintellegent, and without creativity.  \n   My grandfather was a man who had his temper, but never cussed.  Then one day, someone did something and he said that one word, it had alot more power to it.  That is my outlook on all cuss words; if you use them all the time they lose their significance or power, but if you reserve the use of them for that whole other level of your frustration they have a little more impact.

If you haven't broken that habit, it would occur mostly when you're nervous and sometimes stress. But it can also occur as an automatic random impulse, whether you're bored or waiting for something (or both). It's the exact same thing as unconciously fidgeting your fingers and, to most girls who have/had braces, puffing up your cheeks.\n\nIt's simply a brain impulse while it's busy thinking of other stuff and ignores all other habitory, well, habits.

Yes. I have a very difficult time forgiving myself for many of my shameful actions, even though I've asked the Lord for forgiveness. In fact, some of the things that I regret I still ask forgiveness for, many years later. I know I don't need to, but I just feel so incredibly terrible about those things. I want so badly to be the person that God wants me to be. I want to have Christ-like qualities. It is so hard for me to understand why I can't get there! I struggle almost everyday with self control (especially control over my tongue). I would give pretty much anything to consistently maintain my self control, and yet I can't without God's help. I have found that if I forget to pray before I go to sleep (and thus forget to sincerely ask the Lord to allow His Holy Spirit to be with me every second of the following day to help me with self-control), I have a very hard time the next day. If I do ask, it's so much easier - I mean VASTLY different. I don't know why it seems as though God wants me to request help every night, but I'm sure He has a reason. Probably to get me to rely on Him more. That would be a good reason. When I lose my self-control and yell at my little ones, I feel so much remorse. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so my 4 and 2 year old are the ones who try my patience.  :o)  That is to be expected, and is not their fault (sometimes it is, but not usually)! I want to be a calm and predictable mommy, but it's very hard for me. That's all I have to say, as I am tired now and need sleep.  :o)

There's no reason for one to curse (anyone or anything). (Cursing is to wish evil upon someone or something.)

Habit.  NOthing else.  You can change it if you try.

NO..lazy is more like it. All speaking correctly requires is energy and desire.

An addiction is done for reasons not under control.\n \nA habit is pissing your name in a snowbank alongside your significant others. Praying before bed, biting nails while tense, painting nails while tense, driving nails while tense. Driving tenses while being nailed.....Whoops, can I say that?\n\nMind awareness-capable instead of uncontrollable needs=habit.\n\nAddictions run your mind and body both, habits are willful allowances.
