Awareness of our state of mind, helps us to assess the extent to which we are able to see things clearly.
We can’t think our way out of a busy mind (that just makes it busier) but if we sense we are in a snow storm we can know not to take our thinking so seriously.
The snow (thinking) will naturally settle when we are less interested in it. In a quieter mind, we experience clarity and we’re more likely to see / hear new and fresh thought that’s relevant to the present moment.
