    Take the NO CUSSINGChallenge

    Changing the World OneWord at a Time!

    The words we use affect how we feelabout ourselves, how others react tous and how others feel about them-

    selves. Our words truly shape ourworld.

    Thousands of people have taken thischallenge and have seen the positive

    affect it has had in their lives.

    Your words become your thoughts.Your thoughts become your behav-ior. Your behavior becomes your

    character. Your character becomesyour destiny.

    So here it is. . .

    The NO CUSSING Challenge!

    I won't cuss, swear, use bad lan-guage, or tell dirty jokes. Clean lan-guage is a sign of intelligence andalways demands respect. I will usemy language to uplift, encourageand motivate. I will Leave People
