As instructed by all and sundry, I have been working on acceptance. However, to me acceptance is a fancy term for giving up. Rather than admit failure (e.g. that you cannot achieve your dreams), you say you accept your current predicament. Rather than fight for something you want or someone you love, you let go and move on without battering an eyelid.
Accepting things you cannot control might be healthy for emotional well being but I wonder whether it is just another form of apathy; psychology for the lazy.
