Look at the place that you are in, use your five senses to perceive it, then at the same time look inside at thoughts, feelings or emotions, you will notice that these change the perception of reality which you perceive with your five senses, they color it or even make it disappear. Now observing these within, come back to the observation of the place you are in. You need to do this with everything that appears within, again and again, so that you perceive where you are clearly, without that perception being altered by thoughts, emotions or feelings. Learn how to watch inwardly and outwardly at the same time.
You can do this with any activity during the day, try it when for example you are washing the dishes, you will notice how it takes an effort to be aware of what you are doing and how little time is spent actually being aware in the normal course of a day.

Very well said :)
It takes patience to be aware. And by becoming more aware you become more aware :) that's the only way!
