When we observe ourselves, we become more than just the limits of our own mind. We momentarily transcend our "thinking self." The great importance of honest self observation was emphasized by Jesus when He said, "Watch, and pray." Watch what? Watch how you are thinking and what your current attitudes are. Observe yourself, especially your inner states. In order for a person to know what to change within his consciousness he must take time to observe what is going on within himself.
