Chapitre 3: DESTINY
DESTINY
You can Create Your Own Destiny
Put your own fate exactly where it belongs-in your hands... It is one of the great questions of life. It's a simple question, really, but it seems impossible for many to answer: Do we control our own destinies? 90% of people think and act as if their destiny is foreordained, while only about 10% believe in the capacity to change and act on it. Creating Your Own Destiny explains and demonstrates to the majority how to dream, plan, and execute a better future-despite the challenges of life.
Some ignorant people say: "Karma does everything. It is all destiny". If I am destined by my Karma to be like this or like that, why then should I exert? It is my destiny only." This is fatalism. This will bring inertia, stagnation and misery. This is perfect misunderstanding of the laws of Karma. This is a fallacious argument. An intelligent man will certainly not put such a question. You have to make your own destiny from within by your thoughts and actions.
"You are the creator of yourself. What you make yourself to be now; you will be in the future. What you are now, is precisely what you have made yourself to be in the past. What you sow, you shall reap." -- G. de Purucker,
To carve your own destiny you must believe in yourself and your power to change things. We are changing all the time; our thoughts, emotions and actions help us progress and sometimes regress. A person's belief in their ability to 'achieve' their destiny can determine how much effort and work they put into their aims. Others might see a person as being 'fortunate' without respecting all the time and labour they've put in to be successful. Someone might decide they're unlucky as an excuse for giving up when if they just made a tiny bit more effort, they too could be successful. Hard work and Destiny in this respect go hand in hand. Destiny is therefore not just a result of belief but of frame-of-mind and psychological purpose.
You have a free will to choose now. A rogue is not an eternal rogue. Put him in the company of a saint. He will change in no time. He will think and act now in a different way and will change his destiny. He will become saintly in character. You will have to desire, to think, and act only. You can change Karma in any way you like. Man is not a helpless being. He has a free will of his own. "Destiny is simply the limitation imposed by an already exercised freedom of choice, or what is commonly called free will."
In the book "An Idealist View of Life" the author Dr. S. Radhakrishnan says: "Though the self is not free from the bonds of determination, it can subjugate the past to a certain extent and turn it into a new course. Choice is the assertion of freedom over necessity by which it converts necessity to its own use and thus frees itself from it. The human agent is free-he is not the plaything of fate or driftwood on the tide of uncontrolled events. He can actively mould the future instead of passively suffering the past. The past may become an opportunity or an obstacle. Everything depends on what we make of it and not what it makes of us."
By saying "It is my destiny, I cannot change it" we are limiting ourselves in a self made cell. We are building walls around us. See even someone born physically handicapped, his disability isn't his destiny. There is a purpose for everything. Find out your purpose of your life. Every one can improve their situation by careful analysis and adoption of suitable strategies. Believe in yourself. Personal attitude and approach towards life and values decide your destiny. The cumulative factors precedent to actions and collective offerings create the agony and ecstasy of life. You need to remove the limiting belief and say there arelot of opportunities to grow; Stop saying that limiting words like "It is my Destiny". Believe and say there is opportunity to grow and improve. Say that there is scope and hope. I can grow and there is lot of opportunities. After you find out what is limiting you, you need to correct it. There is nothing to loose but the chains that locking you. Control your destiny.
Free will shapes your destiny because the choices you make influence how and when you learn the lessons you are destined to learn and have the experiences you are destined to experience. For example, say it is part of your destiny to truly understand and embody courage. In order for that to happen, you will have to experience things that give you the opportunity to practice being courageous. Your choices along your life journey will impact how that happens. Maybe you will choose into a relationship that is difficult and you will have to find the courage to leave. Or maybe you will be in situations where you choose to speak your truth even if it is not accepted.
Imagine that your life is a treasure map and the pot of gold represents what you are destined to experience. The choices you make along the way simply impact the route you toward that pot of gold. There is not just one route to get there – there are many paths that you could possibly take. That means there are many choices you can make in your life, which will all eventually lead you to the same destination. Free will just impacts the how and when. But you can relax in the knowing that you will indeed reach the pot of gold.
The Uni-verse is always looking out for you. It will continue to send you opportunities to direct you toward your destiny. And if you miss a sign, it will keep sending you more.You are never off course. You are never lost. Sure you may feel a bit disorientated at times, but trust that your Higher Self knows your destiny and is your internal GPS. The more you are in communication with your Higher Self, rather than your ego, the more direct your route will be. Trust that if there is something you are destined to experience, you will experience it. Trust that if there are things you are destined to do, you will do them.
Trust that if there is someone you are destined to meet or be with; you will meet and be with him or her.This does not mean that you can just stay home and wait for destiny to knock at your door. Part of what moves you along the treasure map of your life is taking action. Your destiny is not just a pot of gold at the end of your life. It is present each and every day. Choose to accept everything you are experiencing in life and see it all as part of your destiny.
Man sows an action or thought and reaps a habit of doing or thinking. He sows a habit and reaps a character. He sows a character and reaps a destiny. Habit is second nature or rather first nature itself. Man has made his own destiny by thinking and acting. He can change his destiny. He is the master of his own destiny. There is no doubt of this. By right thinking he can become master of his destiny. Man decides his own destiny through the choices he makes in life. Most of our choices are based on what will give us the most happiness. Everyone has a favourite word for the inexplicable in life, for that eternal arbiter of universal law which 'Omar Khayyam' calls the 'moving finger'. Others call it variously God, fate, providence and divine force. My word for it is 'DESTINY'. I haven't achieved everything in life by myself; destiny has also been kind to me. Here I may say: "Destiny is what we make of it."
I earnestly believe in my Motto: "Reject Fate, Realize your Destiny."
Watch your thought, they become your words.
Watch your words, they become your actions.
Watch your actions, they become your habits.
Watch your habits, they become your character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
