Destiny of a Determined Soul
Mr. Napoleon Bonaparte once said that the torment of precautions often exceeds the dangers to be avoided. It’s sometimes better to abandon one’s self to destiny. I still believe though that within the context of free-will granted to your existence on this earth by the Almighty; it’s is choice, not chance that determines your destiny. Show your true colors of bravery and fortitude to the world, and wear the symbol of pride and courage- you’re certainly not a coward!
Perhaps, some are destined to succeed and some are determined to succeed- who are you? What are you made of? It’s in your moments of decisions that your destiny is shaped. And the further you distance yourself from the challenges, the better you are able to put your destiny or determination into perspective. What do you need to prepare for destiny and carve out a new leadership role for yourself in the process? You’ll need your identity compass, intuition and trust guide through and every complexity. Focus on what you want, not what you don’t want. Let the past assist you, but never determine who you are- because you are a work in progress!
Turn your abilities into assets and use stumbling blocks as a shield. Directness, self assertion, and wearing any battle scars with pride will help you pick up the pieces and make something better out of them. If you’re going to make your determination real, you’re going to manufacture it in your mind first. Retrace your steps; it’s probably a rude but necessary awakening. Let your winning attitude help you create something daring, something memorable!
Shaping your destiny requires determined proactive effort, self confidence, assertiveness, decisiveness, patience and deep trust in your ability to succeed in the midst of fundamental changes. Are you destined to accept whatever life gives you, or can you strive to make the most out of your potential? If you want to be able to stand tall on your own- step out of the shade into the enlightment. The most beautiful moment of your life has come- this is the adventure that your destiny has to offer, where opportunity for self growth exists for the determined soul!
