Can you control your destiny? Do you believe that there are forces beyond our control that is pushing us in directions that we do not want to go? I think that we make our own luck and destiny. We do that by hard work and education. But there are a group of people who absolutely believe in destiny. Which are you?

However much an intelligent workaholic tries properly things seem to fall into place at a certain juncture of your life and there seems to be no looking back from then on.That is the destiny which I am feeling myself in my life now..

I believe there is a certain truth in destiny. I read many books and visited many sites on Feng Shui. All of them mentions that our time and date of birth greatly influence our destiny. For example, if someone shares the same time and birth of Bill Gates, then he/she will be very successful in life. But he/she won't be as successful as him as one destiny also depends on the place where one stay,and the people that one interact. Having said that, it does not mean that after you know your destiny that you can sit back and wait for the money to fall from the sky. You just have to sweat it out but you will stand a better chance of getting what you want if your destiny is favorable.

Thanks for your comments. I appreciate your opinion. I am a believer that we make our own luck in life. So even if we are ruled by destiny...we can change it.

yes there is force called destiny which drives us to some extent.....but even to reach your destiny you have to work hard. if you want to achieve something which might seem unlikely you have to work harder. in any case hard work beats anything on its way..even talent.

Thanks for the comment. Hard work is the key. I would rather have a team mate that worked at 110% than a talented player that only worked at 10%.
