Now that vs Now

Hi all,

Can someone please help me to figure out the difference between "Now that" and "Now" in the following sentences?

  1. Now that I think of it as the most important thing to me.
  2. Now I think of it as the most important thing to me.

The first sentence could be incorrect, if so, can you just tell me when and how to use "now that".

If I use "Now that" instead of "now", will it change the meaning of the sentence?

Thanks in advance.
