Profane and obscene language is not limited to words that are bleeped out on television or radio. They also include the negative expletives that forfeit our opportunities and minimize our potential.
CAN’T (cannot) – is a curse word that expresses the disbelief of possibility. When one inserts ‘can’t‘ into a sentence, they are enacting a self-fulfilling prophecy that stifle’s the hope of what could be.
“I can’t do that!” – a simple verb switch to can changes incapability to ability.
HATE – is a curse word that projects negativity felt inwardly onto a person or thing as an expression of jealousy or self-discontent.
“I hate her!” – When you learn to like more things within yourself and be content with what you have, hate is lessened as you see things that you love in other people, places and things.
REGRET – is a curse word that prolongs the difficulty or unpleasantness of a past situation that is impossible to change.
“I regret that!” – Feeling regret stunts that growth that can take place from and experience and the lesson that can be extracted from a situation.
JEALOUS – (not to be confused with hate) is a curse word that exposes the discontent one has with people, places and things around them. Much like envy, jealousy is a desire to attain the perceived success seen outside ones self.
“I’m jealous of them!” – Jealousy produces anger and exposes the belief that you don’t have the ability to achieve what you see another person or group do.
WORTHLESS – (similar to hate) is a curse word of self-discontent. It is either a hateful description of ones self, or a projection on someone else; which is often untrue; intended to temporarily pacify ones own unhappiness. Worthlessness is also a tell tale sign of pride. When a person feels worth or value, they are prideful (in a good way), and they are self-assured of their abilities. When one is pride-less (which is bad) they need to be coddled and affirmed about who and what they are, because they don’t feel that value or worth.
“I’m worthless!” – Devaluing ones self hinders the potential within. Again, from a prideful (bad pride) place you refuse to attempt what you don’t think you can be successful at, which is a disservice to yourself as well as others who will not experience your gifts because of your devalued self-worth, which prevents you from taking a risk.
Notice in each ‘curse’ the noun is ‘I’. I, is singular. I, is selfish. I thinks only of who I, is. Changing the obvious or underlying verb in each of these words immediately releases the negativity: “I can!”. “I do not hate!”. “I do not regret!”. “I am not jealous!”. “I am not worthless!”.
In order not to be cursed, stop CURSING!
