destiny vs. your actions?

Question

i hate to admit it but i do believe in destiny cause you can't control everything especially the most important things like the kind of parents you have or whether you will ever run into the right person (love), etc...so my question is even if it seems that someting you would like to achieve is incredibly hard to attain, do you think you can still do it despite the obstacles. thanx

Answer 1

Yes I think you can, I believe nothing happens by accident. You have to listen to that inner voice and not the noise around you. I think that the obstacles are there for you to become stronger in your quest of what you meant to have. you are on that road for a reason, and to reach the end you have to be ready for it. Just when you think it is hopeless , something incredible happens.

Answer 2

To date...You have done what you have done and you have experienced the effects of your choices and consequent actions, whatever the circumstances, obstacles and all. By making the same choices and doing the same things you will experience a version of same old, same old, over and over. Project into the future, recognizing the outcomes of your actions and you have a good idea of what your FATE is and will be.
TODAY...You can go a different way if you choose to. Where in the past you have focused on how to "get" what you wanted to do or have, and been frustrated by your efforts, fear not. There is a way, an actual formula for realizing every desire you have. Before I direct you to a site, be assured that science has shown us precisely how to approach this very subject from a rational perspective...Religion has shown us the emotionally precise way and deep within yourself lies the recognition of the truth of this and you will become aware of the perfect path to your desires' fulfilment.

One of the simplest and most direct explanations for this formula can be found at www.spiritualityofwealth.com. In a choice as simple as the one to apply proven technology lies the possibility of realization of your dreams...your DESTINY !!!

Answer 3

I don't believe in a destiny that controls your actions regardless of how you act. But I do believe in a destiny that will control you unless you act.

Although there are certain aspects of nature that you can't control-- like death-- but you can still control much of what you do. We are all given the oppurtunity to do what we want and most obstacles can be overcame with effort and dedication.

Answer 4

The human condition gives us chances to persevere over unimaginable obstacles, but it also allows others to give up when confronted with seemingly minimal tasks! People with nothing achieve great things and some people with nearly everything squander it all away!

I wouldn't call it destiny, more like chaos!

Answer 5

An old and rhetorical question... Passive believers in destiny sit around and pray, by doing nothing they achieve nothing. But if you are ready to work hard and dream big, you will get what you want eventually. Success isn't for the fainthearted though: fight for what you want.

Answer 6

yes, i think you can achieve alot , even when the path to that goal is difficult with road blocks and detours along the way
thinking of it as a path, a journey,seems to help, plan out each step of it along the way, such as i need to do this to get ready, then make it to this point , then this one etc, find what you need to arrive at each point of your journey, plan rest stops along the way,
so to a great extent, i believe we influence any destiny we have, in fact in a large part create it, just as we create the person we will be
too often, we think of the goal but not how we will get there

Answer 7

Destiny determines the events that will come your way in life, but the way you choose to respond to them is your choice. The actions you take are yours to choose.

Therfore, you should pursue what you want, even if it's hard to attain.

Answer 8

Of course-you can do anything that you truly believe that you can. But you have to deeply and profoundly believe it, not just want to believe it. And actions may very well be the result of ones destiny. One person may act, whereas another may not and both of those seeming decisions may have been pre-ordained.

Answer 9

Your actions control your destiny. God has given you the power to make your life better, or worse.

Answer 10

In my experience, we only try and the quality of the result that we we get is based on our efforts. the important thing to realize is that everything is a result- may not be a desired one but it is certainly .. not a failure.

if the result is not what we want, then tweak it to the point of the result that you want - in other words try till you succeed.
