To check regularly means to bring about a change. When there is any negative action performed, there is an immediate feeling of guilt and a desire not to perform it again. But the checking also needs to be at a level where it never repeats again. Maintaining a chart of one's own weakness means checking regularly. Such checking brings about a permanent change. When we are able to maintain a chart where we could monitor our own progress, we are able to remain committed to our transformation. Adverse situations or people will never deter us, but we are able to bring about the desired change. We are able to continue the process of transformation even when what we seek to change is not harmful in the present phase of our lives. Thus regular checking will prevent carelessness from creeping in.
