To learn guitar, I first had to gain an interest. Then, I had to pick it up and become acquainted and fluent with it. After that, learn the relationships of the notes and time structures. Finally, forget everything I learned begin with the basics... re-pick it up with a new understanding of how to play. It no longer matters that I am playing in A minor only that the notes I am playing are in tune.
The difference is the intent of picking up the instrument, in the first place. I try to apply this analogy in everything I wish to understand.
Is harmonization understanding formed my dilligently practicing with intent in mind? If the answer is yes, then perhaps manifesting a conscious intent is needed in defeating this mental obstacle in your path towards unified enlightenment.

You might think that because you notice an inferiority in someone which you have mastered. In which case you are right to feel that your control in that area is better than what the other expresses. However, the other person is also capable of mastering themselves likewise and so look at them in empathy and help them.
>> Why would you think you're better than anybody else? You don't think that you're better than anyone else, but you think that you've got things a little more figured out than what you're seeing. Still, everyone likely also has some area of themselves that they've got figures out better than you. In the end we're all destined for perfection, so acknowledge your strengths and be humble about it.
I think you're afraid to admit that you have got a little more insight because you subconsciously know you don't deserve to be better than anyone. You probably wish that everyone was at the same level so you wouldn't have to worry about it. Thinking about this shows you have a caring heart that isn't wanting to be superior to people, but it is wanting to rise above weaknesses, and that is a good thing.

I have thoughts like that also, usually when I'm in a confused/chaotic state of mind.
