I have heard this hundred times at least, but no real good answers. I have the same problem, I usually put myself some goal, something like 1000 hands or 2 hours, it helps.

My other biggest problem is not giving players enough credit for hands when they bet. The more I play at 10 NL, the more I am noticing that when players raise on the turn/river, they are rarely bluffing. I believe Trikkur says something to this effect in one of his videos as well. Unfortunately I have a tough time laying down hands like TPGK. I am improving on this, but I always feel like players are just taking shots at me. I don't give enough credit when I should.
If you repair this leak, you winrate goes up very quickly. I had same problem also, I used simple rule; Only bluff you make in NL10, is cbet, and only bluff you expect opponents to do, is cbet.
No bluffs at the turn and river, and no thinking that villain bluffs on river or turn.
