Many people think mindfulness practice means emptying the mind and suppressing thoughts. This is a misunderstanding.
Many confuse “acceptance” with “resignation,” leading to silence, endurance, and inaction. But true acceptance means seeing reality clearly—while retaining the power to choose and change.

When these goals become the motivation behind our mindfulness practice, how do we stay true to the spirit and attitude of mindfulness?

In the past, my answer was:"Not at the beginning, and not now either. I don't think daily practice should be a goal. Once you turn it into a goal, it’s no longer very ‘mindful’."
