I just read a though provoking post by Jonathan Martin. Check it out here.
The post covers the difference between being aware of your faults vs. acknowledging them as sin and working with God to overcome them. I've spent a lot of time in the "self-aware" zone. I've found it fruitless in the long run. My goal is to go two steps beyond self awareness into repentance and then personal change with the help of the Holy Spirit.
I invite you to join me in taking some time to take the next two steps past self awareness. It may be painful, but it'll be worth it in the end.
