By the sounds of it, you are already driving the wheel.
The concept of karma has been misunderstood, in my opinion. It is not a manner of repentance, it is a manner of self-awareness in the moment. It is the assertion that "you reap what you sow", and so conscientiousness in the moment is the lesson it is meant to teach. When you view a negative event in your life, perhaps you could accredit it to some "past" karma, but when you really look at it for what is being given it's an opportunity to test your positivity.
I, personally, don't believe in karmic "debt", in the sense of having to "pay" for past mistakes. Simply, "mistakes", or rather unnecessary pain (which is suffering), will repeat until the one makes the choice to take the alternate path and to act with positivity and love when the situation of the "mistake" comes up.
This doesn't mean that for someone who has released themselves from the weight of karma will be without trial or without challenge, but that these challenges will be greeted as a catalyst for positivity, rather than a "punishment".
