Unfortunately for you, many of us use "did the author take the time to get spelling and grammar correct" as a proxy for "did the author take the time to think about what she wrote".
Capitalize the word "I".
The word "its" is possessive, you want "it's", the contraction.
The word "don't" has an apostrophe.
Before "issue", you want "an" rather than "a".
I have trouble editing my own work, I recognize these flaws when I beta for others but when it comes to my own work I tend to get lost in my own train of thought. Now that I have people finally offering to beta my work maybe I can surpass these flaws for good. Also, I'm used to I capitalizing on it's own for some reason my spell-check is not working on I's today.
Now, see, here you don't want the apostrophe. :-)
Also, speaking of capitalization: "akrasia", "journey", and "rationality" are not proper nouns and should not be capitalized.
I learned the moral of the story, don't post to top level without a beta/substantially clear thesis of why your content should be there.
