Why is an automatic lashing out more effective than an automatic noticing-and-evaluating? That's what I mean by "keeping them where I can see them". I don't let my pets fall back into the ether; I observe their activities carefully. An automatic lashing out could catch even some non-irrational things, that could be filtered and stowed safely if the automatic reaction was just to attend carefully.
The stuff you're noticing and evaluating, you've already discovered. I'm talking about an effort to expand the range of your discoveries. Subconscious ideas have to interact with the conscious mind to steer it, but they don't stay there for long.
I don't mean "lash out and destroy", so much as "lash out and grab".
