"Take close heed of " or "Internalize" or "Take to heart" are my best guesses as ways to translate this phrase in this context.
I'd appreciate any suggestions for improvement.

be within a proximity so that ...
As such, the above doesn't make much sense. You have to realise that the noun 'yakınlık' is qualified by the relative clause 'bizim göreceğimiz konuşacağımız', and then the whole thing starts to make sense. It means 'Stay close enough for us to us to see and speak so that ...' It will need more editing to produce something that sounds like English. Perhaps something like: 'Stay close enough for visual and spoken contact so that ...'
Note from asker:
| Tim - great input as usual: How about this rendering? In terms of what we shall see and talk about, stay close enough so that we may tell you what we know and observe |
