Hopefully you allowed yourself a blast of joy for your realization and did not continually berate yourself for your lack of consciousness. Unconsciousness is a habit. And it takes time to break it.

Keep working at it, you will see improvement.
Joy... that's a concept. I have spent so much time coming down on myself that I can't even remember the feeling. It's just that I am such a naive person, and have been dealing with this in so many situations in life - to now come to the realization that I've been doing it all unconsciously.. UGH, it's a whole new frusterating chapter.
I find comfort in your words, to know that with practise and time I will gradually become more successful... And I will concentrate on shifting my perspective toward a more positive one, not only in regards to this realization, but on many, many other aspects in my life. ... what a long journey ahead ...

Thank you.
