Perhaps you are not happy with some event from past; perhaps you exected too much of yourself. Then you condemn yourself by thinking that you have not done enough, and you constantly repeat the thought that your past actions were not healthy or good. Thus, you have created a habit of condemning yourself, which created negativity in your mind. But the present and futur actions are still completely in your hands, and that is where you should focus your mind.
You have the power to change the destiny of your life. You have the power to change your personality. You have the power to mould the entire stream of your life, to give a new direction to your life. There is one difficulty in doing this, however, and direction to your habit patterns. Your personality is a particular character, woven by your habit patterns but how are your habits themselves formed? Your habits are formed because you have repeated some action or thought again and again. Thus, it becomes a habit. Then, you unconsciously do it; eventually, it is a full-fledged habit. When you understand that all your habits are formed by the simple process of repeating some action or thoughts again and again, then you can learn another process, that of undoing and changing your habits.
