Beginner's mind: the deliberate practice of temporarily suspending expertise-derived schemas to see what is actually present rather than what patterns suggest is present
Why This Is a Definition

It distinguishes it from mere ignorance and positions it as a deliberate cognitive skill rather than a permanent state.
