"Conscientiousness is the ability to perceive and abstract the world outside yourself"
It sounds like you've confused consciousness with conscientiousness?
First paragraph sounds like it's about consciousness. And second is about conscientiousness. Third is like a synthesis of both meanings?
EDIT
Sorry, your comment actually makes a lot of sense, it's just that "Conscientiousness is the ability to perceive and abstract the world outside yourself" is a very weird definition, see [0] [1] - nothing about perception or abstraction.
