behavior:

1. Acceptance: Face reality that you ostracize others.

2. Responsibility: Acknowledge the impact ostracization has on you and others.

3. Plan: Develop a strategy for how to respond when you are triggered to ostracize.

4. Choice: Interrupt unconscious and automatic choices with new and effective ones.
