When you listen more closely your mixing is more subtle and more respectful of the original productions, if you don't listen you can be great with timing but give the eq's no love which is where the focus should be. All IMO from my experience of course... After learning this for myself I built myself a skin with no waves and hidden song views so I am flying blind and have no option but to listen more intently and go with my instincts.
Think less = hear more
