Well, my ultimate destiny is death and no matter what choices or chances I take will not change that. All things happen for a reason. Even when you don't take chances, things can change with a blink of an eye. Something that was going so well, could turn ugly. God has a plan for all of us. No matter if you make a choice or not, our destinies are already set in stone. I learned my lesson the hard way.

Destiny is the choice we make because we all have a choice to chose what we want in all life so it is your best to take care of your destiny or you won't get another chance.

We do make our own choice but that wont change our destiny because God has already decided our destiny for us and which path we need to take so no matter how many choices or chances we make we will get to our desinitaion.

Taking a chance IS a choice.

he Roman philosopher Seneca said:
"The willing, Destiny guides them; the unwilling, Destiny drags them".
It makes a lot more sense to embrace it!
What is Destiny?
Let's dig into the concept of destiny. I'll give you real world examples
There is not one of us but has his appointed position, and we are verily ranged in ranks [for service].
Islam. Qur'an 37.164-65
All appointments are from Heaven, even that of a janitor.
Judaism. Talmud, Baba Batra 91b
Shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?
Christianity. John 18.11
Mencius said, "Though nothing happens that is not due to destiny, one accepts willingly only what is one's proper destiny. That is why he who understands destiny does not stand under a wall on the verge of collapse.
He who dies after having done his best in following the Way dies according to his proper destiny. It is never anyone's proper destiny to die in fetters."
Confucianism. Mencius VII.A.2
The order that God has arranged, mortal man cannot upset.
African Traditional Religions. Akan Proverb (Ghana)
The concept of destiny permeates just about every doctrine in the world. Destiny means the purpose you were born into the world to fulfill. It is the idea that there are predetermined events in your life that will be encountered despite your best efforts to avoid them.
There has been a debate raging for centuries about two seemingly opposite concepts, that of destiny and that of free will. I have reconciled the two in my own theory of existence.
If we imagine a straight line, running from our birth, through our life to death, I would define that as destiny. If we imagine a sine wave running across that straight line, I'd define that as freewill.
When we follow our destiny things always seem to go right, "synchronicities" occur and everyone thinks we live a charmed life.
When we make choices that are out of alignment with our destiny, we have a break down, where things seem to conspire against us. Life seems hard and we say, "What's the use?"
But there is a corrective action, when we stray we are guided, sometimes gently and sometimes severely back to our purpose.
This isn't to be taken as a punishment, but rather a rebalancing.

I have had some very interesting things happen the last few years. When I make a wrong choice, after a short time I am lead to make the right choice. I feel very sure it is because I read the Bible. Psalms 91:11 and 12 tells us that God gives His angels charge over us, that they keep us in all our ways. Very interesting and surprising.

The choices we make are the chances we take.

the chances we take are the choices we make, destiny would fulfill it's own course no matter which choices or decisions we make, whats for us is meant for us.

sometimes our choices we make are chances we are taking or in the way have to take and the chances we take are usually done because of choices we made in a cause and effect relationship or act to consequences.
