Nothing is inevitable in life. People make choices, and those choices have results, and we all live with the results.
The way you activate the seeds of your creation is by making choices about the results you want to create. When you make a choice, you mobilize vast human energies and resources which otherwise go untapped. All too often people fail to focus their choices upon results and therefore their choices are ineffective. If you limit your choices only to what seems possible of reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is a compromise.
Acceptance means focusing on the present while assessing the choices available to you in this moment.

If there are no obvious choices, relax and accept the fact that for now, you cannot do anything.

Strong moral character results from consistent correct choices in the trials and testing of life. Your faith can guide you to those correct choices.
The mania started with insomnia and not eating and being driven, driven to find an apartment, driven to see everybody, driven to do New York, driven to never shut up.
A chess master can keep track of more choices than the number of stars in the galaxy within an instant, but these are people that have truly learned and mastered the choices that they have and how to deal with those choices over a very, very long period of training, so essentially what they're really doing is ruling out all the irrelevant choices and only zeroing in on the most relevant, useful choices at the moment.
