I have an impression that conscientiousness feels like an outside force. Instead of "I choose to tidy up/proofread my writing/tip the server", it's more like "the situation requires that I do the right thing".
Does this match other people's experience? Does conscientiousness feel more like an outside force than other behaviors?
To me these are much the same thing. I am one with the situation. When I clearly see what is necessary, the action follows.
At least, that's the ideal, which I don't claim to always achieve.
