Question

month = "March"
year = 2023

driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//input[@id='datepicker']").click()


while True:
    mon = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//span[@class='ui-datepicker-month']").text
    yr = driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//span[@class='ui-datepicker-year']").text
    print(mon, yr)
    if mon == month and yr == year:
        break
    else:
        driver.find_element(By.XPATH, "//*[@id='ui-datepicker-div']/div/a[2]/span").click()

Answer 1

Try using equals or is:

mon.__eq__(month) and yr.__eq__(year)

Instead of while true you can also negate the part that you use for breaking so it will be like while year and month not equal to something do this.
