Using thought to get to awareness without thought obviously putting the horse before the cart.
Observing breath to quieten mind (but does not put thought away), the same. Still, a useful pre-meditation tool.
What then?
Neither seeking, nor negating, simply flowing where attention takes us, our emptiness magnetised, our innocence alive, embracing-imbibing-releasing the seductive waves of bliss as they engulf our being.
Taking a step back, when yet mired in whirlpools of spasmatic thought, the doing we may infuse to approach stillness is to ignite our perception, our cognition of that that automatically unfolds, with purity of intent, unexpectant and yet vibrant with childlike wonder.
Attention without thought then becomes an embodiment of our being, wherein we employ the instrument of thought as of need only.
