• Practice control over your tongue, your words, and don’t allow your mouth to control you.
• Ask God in your prayers for self control and watch your words, your affirmations and your answers.
• Avoid being around people who can’t control their tongue and can contaminate you.
• Don’t forget, a single word can ruin everything, or make you be misinterpreted depending on the way you express yourself.
