Why do we swear and why is it so bad?

When I was a little kid, even using words like stupid and dumb were reacted to by other kids with wide eyes and their jaw dropped to the ground.

But I guess as we get older, we learn new words and we think we’re kind of cool and we start using them.

But did you know that people who are constantly swearing are viewed as insecure, lazy, low self-control, and even less intelligent than they actually are?

So, why do we trade using cuss words for looking lazy and insecure? Typically three reasons.

We use it for emphasis, attention, and anger. You know, we hit our table--yeah, we hit our table with our side, we burn our fingers, I don’t know, it happened to me once--on a light bulb even, or we’re just really fired up about a debate.

But, you know, you could spend hours on your hair and your physical appearance, but people are going to remember you best by your words.

So, I challenge you this week to learn some new words to add to your vocabulary. And remove certain words from your vocabulary.

But don’t beat yourself up about it if, like, you hit your side on the table, or burn your hand, because once your brain is aware of a problem, it’s going to want to start to solve it.

So that is the challenge this week. Give me a smiley face in the comments if your are accepting it and if you are going to win this!

I’m Grace Plata, and I’m here to equip, empower, and encourage you to help you live your best life!

Thank you so much for listening to this message! Please share with three friends, and I will see you next week!
