High consciousness, low agency

I've been thinking about how people interface with the world, and I realized that the absolute worst position to be in is to be high consciousness, low agency.

What I mean by that is that you always understand what's wrong in a situation, but at the same time you lack the will—or… something or other—to act in order to make it better. You end up being the person responsible for pointing out the flaws in things. And if you don't, it eats you up from the inside. It's a harsh reality.
