Depending on what season you may be going through in your life, the above may be more difficult. It's easy to accept and move forward when things are going well. There isn't much need of acceptance, letting go, and growing our faith when things are good.
It's those more difficult times that make us pause. When things are not going as planned or my path has stagnated, I find that I pray more, which sometimes comes out as pleading or bargaining (neither helps as I remain on God's timing and not my own). At such times, it's harder to accept things as they are and let go of what is or what was. Faith can be a fickle thing at times.
I believe it's why we go through seasons. Things go well and we tend to blindly accept faith and happily dance through our high season. When the seasons change however, we drop to our knees in search of understanding and the hope of change. It's in our time of need that we continue to focus our eyes heavenward. It's a reminder to us that we need our faith, and that every day, we need to drop to our knees and look heavenward. We need to accept what is, let go of what was, and have faith in what will be. Each and every day.
