Conscious Living: Blessing/Curse?

One day, I observed that I am not feeling happy in my life. I tried to figure out the things I was doing. I tried to observe my patterns. I was thinking to change my routine habits. I was trying to listen to my inner voice. But then, I thought when was the last time I felt happy in my life. When was the last time, I felt satisfied with my lifestyle. Surprisingly, I found that it was that time when I was not conscious of my life. I never felt depressed, lonely, or any such emotion. I was happy, contented, and had no complaints. I was confident, energetic, and satisfied. I was doing progress emotionally as well as professionally. So, my doubt is, as now I am more aware of my lifestyle, my habitual patterns, and living consciously, is this leading to a blessing or curse? Is conscious living responsible for my worst situation or I am taking it in the wrong direction?
