Phase IThe behavior I will observe over the next month uses profanity. This is a behavior I picked up from my family and friends. There are many reasons why I would like to change this behavior: firstly, when in a professional setting I don't want to accidentally blurt out profanity in front of my current/future boss and/or colleagues, secondly is that the Using profanity in front of a majority of people gives them a feeling of disgust. It doesn't make you appear intelligent as a person and doesn't make you attractive to others. This is a bothersome emotion that I have to deal with and I have to change this emotion for the better. I will feel more professional and I will be able to conduct myself without having to worry about using profanity in any context. Phase I Qualitative Behavior This behavior is something I would really like to change because sometimes I don't even notice that I'm using profanity. It happens more when I'm around my friends and they notice it every time I swear, but that's because I mainly learned it from them; but my parents tell me, when they hear me, to clean up my language. This shames me; my parents raised me in an environment where I can be a professional person in everything I do. It also makes me sad that I have disappointed my peers so much. Now that I see how many times I say it a day, I become more aware of how much I say it. It's touching to think that I don't even notice that I'm saying it and that when I say it, it doesn't seem like a bad word. I need to clean up my language that I use because I will have no way of getting a job if my language is not in the professional field. When I go to a job interview, it's always in the middle of the paper. ......I must have felt that I was using this type of language around them without any type of language blocker. It's also interesting that when you're around certain people, you act one way, and when you're around other people, you act another way. I know I've done this before, just to think that what you do is just to fit in with a certain crowd of people. If people took a step back and realized that if they could just be themselves, they would be much happier with themselves. My roommates change their behavior around me to help me with this change. I am an extroverted person, who knows how to talk to people without using foul language. So in a way your environment can help you and sometimes hurt you, like my bad language that I learned. I don't blame my family or peers for this behavior I learned, I should have known better and not let the environment change me..
