Destiny… what is it really? Maybe it’s that thing written in the stars. That something that continues to exist in you mind. DESTINY is that thing that deep down, you know it is going to happen no matter what. You may believe there is no way to avoid what is destine for you.
It’s an interesting thought, but where exactly does it come from? Can your destiny be a deep and mysterious expedition, or is it a mental verdict seen clear as day. Either way, it is a very important matter in your life.
It is commonly misunderstood…
“DESTINY is NOT a matter of CHANCE. It is a matter of CHOICE. “
There is an underlying power in being able to choose. Your fate depends on your daily choices, because ulitimately they put you in position for your future.
Success doesn’t happen over night, and dreams don’t just come true because you believe them. Destiny is created through a history of small and large decisions. If you analyze any of the greats, they all have what is commonly referred to as that “IT FACTOR.”
You must become poised by the belief in yourself. Michael Jordan was the best before the world knew he was. He didn’t let the world put limitations on him, instead he chose the path least taken, and it led him right to his destiny.
Disciplining your thoughts can be challenging, especially when the past doesn’t line up with what you have planned for the future. Time doesn’t change our reality, but rather being able to stand up and fight for what we believe.
Alexander Hamilton once said, “If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.”
You hold yourself back when you allow society to interpret reality for you. Nothing others do or say is because of you, it is a projection of their own reality. When you are immune to the opinions of others, you won’t be a victim of needless suffering.
There is power in your ability to choose, but before you make a decision you must focus your intentions and interpretation of who you are and what you want for yourself. When the road gets tough, your purpose will supply you with strength to endure all challenges.
Remember, destiny is what you are suppose to do in life, but fate is the test you must endure to earn credibility behind your purpose.
You are the one in charge of your destiny. Unfair things may happen to you, unfortunate times may come, but it is up to you how to respond. You must decide that you have what it takes to conquer all. We don’t choose the hand we are dealt in life, but we do get to choose how we play the hand we are dealt.
So choose your destiny wisely, but most importantly choose it every day.
