Good point Catspaw.
If you take this one step further, life can get a little mucky when you take actions based on beliefs and feelings you are not even consciously aware of.
I have been amazed at some of the beliefs I unconsciously held about myself. By observing my actions and working backwards asking the question Why do I do what I do?, I have been able to better understand my true feelings and belief systems.
Once discovered, I started working on letting go of some of the old beliefs that were no longer useful.
This allowed me room for creating new belief systems, a change in feelings and growth from new actions.
