Mindfulness 

Popular ideas of Mindfulness:
1. Meditation watered-down to one ultra-simple practice: noticing what your mind is thinking, without judging the thoughts. Similar to stream of consciousness, but at least paying attention to the idea that "My mind is thinking this."
2. Doing things undistractedly; paying attention to what we are doing.

Traditional Buddhist definition:
3. Part of our mind which holds and remembers the meditation object, or enables us to remember things. It also helps to overcome distraction. If we are very forgetful or get distracted easily, then we need to strengthen this kind of mindfulness. In traditional Buddhist meditation, one focuses on a feeling or concept, and tries to hold the attention on this feeling or concept with mindfulness.
1. Today, I kept following my thoughts instead of letting them go. My mindfulness meditation wasn't working.
2. I took out the trash without thinking of anything except the trash can rolling on the uneven ground.

3. I was meditating on love, but my mindfulness was weak, so I started thinking about pizza.

Mindfulness 

Paying attention to the downright fucking obvious. This usually manifests as paying for a therapist to tell you that if you fart you might need to shit soon. Can only be counteracted by a whack over the head with a plank and a tattoo reading, 'GET A FUCKING GRIP.'
I've been practising mindfulness. It's been very helpful. I haven't been arrested once since I started getting dressed before going to drop the children at school.

mindfulness 

When a woman momentarily possesses the mental state of a man (i.e. pays attention and thinks rationally). This is apparently a novel state for most First World women, nearly akin to achieving orgasm.
In a moment of mindfulness, I put down my Danielle Steele novel and felt a wave of despair and suicidal thoughts, suddenly seeing my life for the pointlessly hollow shell of consumerism that it is. Then I downed a mimosa and admired my nails until the clarity passed.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
