Not trying to be nit-picky, but you could foster than change by beginning the self-reflective statements/questions with positive language.
Rather than "probably not" which is already a shrugging, looking down at your feet" statement, try, "I might!" which initiates a "hopeful, looking up at the sky," sense of possibility.
Baby steps are still steps and it's still momentum.
And I don't think you're going to dash around naked, (but I do that sometimes and it's great) but I DO see you coming out of a dreary, grey cocoon, brilliant, shimmering colourful wings and right now, maybe just sitting on a flower in the sunlight is all you need.
