Acceptance simply entails calmly, nonreactively, and neutrally admitting the truth of a problem. It's best if it's as neutral as possible.
Consider the following example from an ancient Buddhist parable: It's as if you've already been pierced by one arrow if you're having a negative thought, feeling, or occurrence. However, if you respond with another negative attitude or feeling, you're shooting yourself in the foot with a second arrow, exacerbating the injury.
