how can your thoughts, feelings and beliefs help you in determining if the behavior in a situation is appropriate or inappropriate? explain.

There are a couple of things that I paid attention to in order to determine if a certain behavior is appropriate.

1. Developing awareness on the situation.

Before deciding how to behave, I will try to understand the context of the social situation that I'm in and act accordingly. For example, I personally consider myself an easy going person who joke a lot. But I wouldn't do it if imp in the middle of serious meeting.

2. Gauging your relationship with other people near you during the situation.

If you're around friends/families that are closed to you, their tolerance for your behavior tend to be really high. They wouldn't get offended easily even if other people might think your behavior is inappropriate.

3. Unintended consequences.

Rather than focusing only own my own goals, I tend to pay a lot of attention to potential consequences that I caused other people through my behavior. For example, I might make fun one of my friends for being fat jokingly. But iF I stop and think about the consequences of that remark, it  couple potentially cause a damage to my friend's self-esteem. so I tend to choose to avoid that type of behavior.
