Self-awareness, without discipline, is like spiritual entropy.
Imagine having full acknowledgment of your being yet working on none of it?
The weight of such awareness without action releases the accumulated reach of your consciousness as it unfolds and shuffles within the fabrics of understanding the fabric that makes the things you seek to understand.
Yet, over-attention to detail, multiplied by the Human emotional condition could roll over into an awareness so acute, that symbiosis with mind body, and spirit could literally kill you if your heart is too metaphorically broken over anything.
