"Who can discern his errors? Forgive my hidden faults. Keep your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me.... May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer" (Ps. 19:12-14).

Gradually the old self will pass away and be replaced with a positive new one.
