Make a list of how it affects your behavior. (Avoidance of people, short tempered, etc.)
Develop a list of choices to make when you sense you're in need of an attitude adjustment.
(Pour into someone far needier than you, shut the door to your office or classroom for 5 quiet minutes of meditation, etc.)
