1. My target behavior to change will be to quit cussing.

2. I want to quit cussing because entering my big 20's decade, I want to be able to have enough self control to stop cussing. Although useful, it is disrespectful to most and it is not a necessary part of my vocabulary.

3. I will measure my behavior change by adding 1 penny to a jar every time i cuss. This way i can see how many times I cuss a day/week/month and make the necessary changes.

4. Since I don't speak much to others aside from my family and friends,
I did not cuss that much for the past week.
Due to the fact that I stayed home doing homework.
I guesstimate that I cussed about 20-30 times out of 7 days. Which to me is very good.
Words I use are F**K, S**T, D**N, and C**P.
If I were with friends at all times for 7 days, every other sentence could possible include cussing.

Triggers: On any given occasion, I will cuss when irritated or annoyed.
Intensity: I notice the intensity of cussing goes down as I get angry. When I get angry I think more logically and try to resolve problems ASAP.
Situation: Times where the behavior is at its peak is when I am with my friends.

5. Effective ways of changing this behavior would be to
a.) Be witty- Use alternative words
b.) Be smart- Enlarge my vocabulary library
c.) Money Motive- Pay my girlfriend for every time I cuss
d.) Be mature- Setting the right example for children
