Are you talking about practicing mindfulness 4 to 5 times a day or meditation?

    I like the idea that it's something that can be practiced, it's a habit that can be developed, something that can be more and more natural. I really can't think of a better goal in life.

I agree. Changing your thoughts, which change your mood and attitude, is very rewarding, and something I really wouldn't have thought made sense or was possible a decade ago. But just like anything else, with practice comes perfection. It's a skill, and it can be trained just like anything else.
