I like to say that the difference between your expectations and experience = your emotions. And thus, if you have high expectations and those expectations aren't met through the reality of the experience, then you'll likely experience an uncomfortable emotion. Likewise, if you fully accept where your at, limit your expectations, and embrace the experience - the emotions you experience may be incredibly different in nature.

But in the end, as you said, acceptance is the first step. It's truly a powerful way to be.
