Default CCW altered my driving behaviour?

As thorough as my training , both in the classroom and in the field, I don't recall anybody mentioning that my driving would improve. Surely I am not alone in this behavioural change? I am 50 and have been driving well for many years now EXCEPT that I do keep points on my license for speeding. I have a Kawasaki and it is just part of the deal --not making an excuse , just saying...

Prior to retiring I drove a company vehicle with placards for many years and probably averaged 50 to 80 k a year easily so I've habitually driven politely and in a manner so as not to create a bad impression for the Company. BUT , since getting my CCW I have noticed a very marked difference in my driving. I am more-so than ever making determined effort to blend in, courteously but not to draw attention like, just making it a point to not be noticed. Kind of harder to explain than I thought when I came up with this thread notion. I'm not even sure I can identify intellectually why I am driving different but it's definitely noticeable and has been pointed out to me by more than one person.


Tell me I am not just crazy noob on this board and there's others here that noticed something similar ?
