Frustration with myself

I fall into these little ruts of doing or saying things that I really don't like myself for...and it really bothers me, not to mention that it gets me into trouble, sometimes. When it happens repeatedly, I wonder why I allow myself to fall into these ruts. It seems plain enough to me that if there is something that frustrates me about myself, then just plain CHANGE....simple as that. But it takes REALLY wanting to change, for the change to take place...it is not that easy...but it is do-able. At least I need to congratulate myself for recognizing that I do these things that I don't feel good about. That seems to be a plus factor....so feel good about THAT !!! Next....I need to have a plan on how I am going to change. I made a list of WHAT I want to change, HOW I will accomplish it...which mainly consists of very conscientiously being aware of what I say or do. By the way, that can be a little difficult, as I have a habit of just blurting out stuff...not good. But hey, don't let it being hard to do, be discouraging. In the end....I find it does work...and I am making progress....and I am proud of myself. And....I am getting into less trouble, which is a very good thing, indeed !!!
