How to prevent mouth from shooting off nonsense
-
I have this problem since round the age of 14 but then I have not found a PROPER cure/solution to it.
Many have taught me to think b4 opening the mouth but then I tend to lose control at the most critical moment or slight moment and b4 I knew it, the damage is already done and will need some mediator to settle the problem
During NSF days. I also shoot off the wrong stuff and resulted in 2 of my bosses to hate 1 another and my S4 has to come out and settle the matter . Lucky he manage to clam the storm but then I know I cannot go and like this and I need a proper solution/cure to settle this "thing" in me.
Have being telling myself to remember this Chinese phase....
Illness goes in through the mouth and trouble always starts from the mouth...
but then..........
What I have done at school to avoid this problem is that I isolate myself from groups and only a few ppl really has the chance to communicate with me
Worked for me but then I know this is only a stop gap measure and not a long term solution to it.
Getting really sick of this and @ times have thought of making myself MUTE to end all this shit........................
Help if possible -
think before you open your mouth..
it comes with practise.. -
Since your on-the-spot reaction is not that good, then keep quiet first, think of a strategy, then act another time later.

Worked, but then the same old problem will always resurface without me realizing it. Its like a naughty kid always needing the parents to constantly nag and wack him to keep him in check, once the control starts to loosen, the nonsense will start againOriginally posted by Rock^Star:Since your on-the-spot reaction is not that good, then keep quiet first, think of a strategy, then act another time later.
U tell me how, unless I really keep quiet and don speak, maybe it will help, u guys think so 
think before you open your mouth..
it comes with practise.. from the bear
Looks like I need to constantly keep myself under surveillances -
yeah.. always be conscious of what you are going to say... that's the only way.. and it does come with practise..
good luck

yeh ryangian dude, practice makes perfect. When I was a rebellious teen, I would just shoot my mouth off, to disastrous consequences.
It takes a lot of pain and conscious effort to wake up. -
I don't shoot off nonsense, but I tend to speak faster than I think.
So when I was down with tonsilitis, I nearly completely lost my voice. It was extremely painful to even make a sound. So each spoken word became very precious. And because it took such a great deal of effort to speak, I began to think a lot before I spoke.
Just sharing - not asking you to go get yourself tonsilitis-stricken. -
sounds like ure a sabo king

like the others said, think before you talk. penalise yourself each time you say the wrong thing, like give $50 to every person who is present when you said the wrong thing.

better to be an audience really.

Well, practice make perfect therefore practice less.
Lols. If thats the case, try to register in mediacorps or something like that. They might need someone like you. You might be the future Jack Neo or Jacky Wu! -
