If you belive then things are easier to achieve. Negative thoughts only slow the prosses down. What is ment to happen should not be protested. Go with the flow. If it feels right then do it.

meh.
If there is such a thing as fate, and we really have no control (which I think IS MOST plausible), then psychologically, realizing this, you'd be quite relieved of much unnecessary anxiety. Even if you want to accept some inconsistent notion of free-will (I really detest this idea.. it's forced on people hegemonically by religion) you'd still be faced with a very recognizeable amount of constraint, social conditions, geographic etc limitations. So you can be stoic about those things you have NO (undeniably) control over. If a wayward driver smacks into your parked car, the use in being angry about the situation is not really available...

Fate is just something that happens. If think about it as having different paths to choose, or different options to make, just choosing to go with the flow is the easiest decision. It's the easiest path.

It implies that you will dominate if you are stronger. The saying is very inaccurate. All paths are a fate. It's just one of those dumb phrases that is said to soldiers and football players have inscribed on their trophies.

Fate is for the lazy who don't want to put the work into doing the right thing.

It means follow the heard, don't resist, stay blind. Blind faith leads you to ignorance of whats going on around you. The government wants you believe in religion and be distracted by all that's going on in the world so you can't see what they are doing.

If you believe that everything is destined to happen and that there's nothing that you can do about anything, then you're not going to be motivated to do anything. It's like... "I am dirt poor, and I'm meant to be that way. If I am destined to be rich, it'll fall into my lap." If you think that way, then you aren't resisting your circumstances, or trying to do anything for yourself.

I think it means that everyone wants to believe in fate so it is the thing people choose with least hesitance.

to put it bluntly it means that you're the master of your fate, the captain of your soul. swim against the tide of fate, dont let it carry you to a dry deserted island you dig it?

Don't put any effort into changing yourself. In other words, "this is what you are and this is what you will be."
