At the end of his TEDx Talk, speaker Dylan Woon presents two possibilities following acceptance. These routes are:

1. Live peacefully with the situation

2. Strive actively to change things

Might there be a third, hidden middle route to walk between these two paths? Perhaps one must shift back-and-forth between these options until the new situation solidifies. Whatever mode of existence one has decided on at this point may be the middle way of the accepted reality.
