my only aim in life is peace for myself

that means accepting things around me as they are

that does not mean i dont help people, take care of my parents, put food in front of my kid etc. - but i do all that because they all give me peace

the thing about this is that your peace is subject to impact based on the downstream effects of the state of the world

your life is interconnected with everything in ways that can be hard to imagine

yes one should do what they really feel like doing 

but acceptance is tangential to it

I'm 1000% in the acceptance camp actually. Just not by itself. You do your absolute best and THEN accept where the chips fall. You need the yin and the yang.

yes, it is hard imagine

exactly why truly accepting things around you is a large part of attaining peace
