Yogi: In daily life, when I remember to be aware, I sometimes get confused about what to be aware of because there are so many things happening. If I take the dominant object, it is often thinking.

Sayadaw: You can know the mind and what it is knowing – it is okay. 

The priority is to always check the state of the mind – how the mind is feeling as it is doing things so that the mind can stay balanced.

It is then easier to continue to be aware because the mind is balanced. When it hurries or when it worries, then it is difficult to be aware.

If you check, it is easier for the mind to become balanced again. If we don’t notice that the mind is hurrying or worrying, then we can get lost in it.
