So much happens on a subconscious level

Maybe you can’t switch from subconscious to instead speak of unconscious. Because the way I understand subconscious, is that it is beneath our direct consciousness, but how deep varies greatly. Some things we can sort of almost know, even if we choose to not listen to our minds when they try to tell us about them. A reason for this can often be found among those that distort how we evaluate the motives behind our behaviors. For example that our true motives are too big of a threat to our self-image.
