The reason we pay attention to what we are aware of right now (the experience 'as it is' for you) is you can't be aware now of what you are not currently not aware of. You can only notice 'this is how it is'. However, if you look at what you are aware of more closely, you can become aware of the subtler aspects of it. Thus, the path goes from the gross physical to the subtle dynamic aspects of reality-as-you-experience-it.

I suggest more effective would to be aware of that which is affecting you currently regardless of its time and place.

That sounds right.
