YOU create your own destiny

We all have, many times, undoubtedly pondered on the question of “what will my future look like?” or “what does my destiny have for me?”, isn’t it? What answers do we get? On these thoughts, some of us get excited, some happy, some anxious, some horrified and some peaceful. 

So, what makes our destiny? Or rather who makes my destiny for me? 

There is a book named “As a man thinketh” by James Allen, wherein he has explained the influence of how our own thoughts shape our character, circumstances, health, purpose, values and ideals in our individual lives. OUR DESTINY IS VERY MUCH MADE BY US. 

We all own our destiny. There is no one else to blame. Our life is a result of our very own thoughts and beliefs, a manifestation of our inner world. We attract our circumstances based on what we believe we are, our purpose and all the work that we have done on ourselves based on our life journey. 

Some of us go through a lot of trauma, setbacks, failures and unpleasant situations one after the other. 

We can either have a victim mindset or a victory mindset. 

We can either get into fear and escape or face it all with bravery and rise like a phoenix. 

What will we choose to do? That determines the course of our future. We can either take it as a dead end, doom, a hard stop, a death OR we can take it as a stepping-stone to success, a strength training by “THE COACH”, a moment of truth of our inner world. 

It is our thoughts, our beliefs, OUR MINDSET, that sets us free, help us in breaking the dysfunctional patterns of our personality, alter the train of our thoughts to build a better version of ourselves and to release and trash off the mindset of lack and/or being never good enough. 

The realizations that we have on the way of this journey, are profound. It shows us, what we lack and need to work within, so that our outer world reflects back to us what we desire. 

“Oh, I’ll never be a good writer” 

“I will never be able to bake a cake so good” 

“I will not be able to survive this cancer growing in me” 

It is our will power to change a situation that we see the change. We must believe in ourselves first before believing the situations to reform externally. It is our belief in ourselves that fuels the journey of transformation, change and metamorphosis. 

Many a times we see others achieving and growing to the level of success, that we might have never thought of them. What makes it possible for them to do but us, it’s their self believe. 

She believed that she could become a world-renowned mathematician. 

They believed that they could win the contest. 

When we are born, there is no conditioning. It’s the conditioning and the circumstances that we come through that determines our mindset. Now we can’t go back and change those painful situations, but we can start afresh and change our mindset which eventually will enhance and expand the nourishing experiences of our life path and thereby lead to the destiny of our choice. It is about taking inspired actions all along with perseverance and a strong self-belief. 

“What can I do to increase the sale of my business?” 

“What will it feel like to afford a world tour?” 

“What will it feel like to have those Fossils, Ray-bans, business-class flight tickets?” 

Let these above statements inspire you, to take that first step to achieve your tailor-made destiny.
