People have a common notion about destiny, which is predetermined and that they don’t have any control over it. But that is NOT CORRECT!
Let us reveal all the myths related to Fate and Destiny. They both have completely different meanings.
What is FATE?
“Fate” comes from the Latin word Fatum meaning “that which has been spoken.” Fate is seen as divinely planned, whereas destiny has the power to be influenced by one’s own action.
It is something which is given to you directly without any choices.
For example:
1) Your parents and family
2) Situations and environment that you grew up in
3) The people that you have met
What is DESTINY?
Deriving from the Latin word Destinare, destiny means “that which has been firmly established.” While this definition also refers to the idea of predetermined events, destiny is something we can actively shape and alter. It means the choices we took as a result of the options presented.
For example:
1) The way you deal with your family and people at the workplace
2) What choices you have made from the given situations
3) What you do after meeting these people?
What’s the Difference between Fate and Destiny?
- Fate is that which you cannot change. Destiny is that which you’re meant to do.
- While fate is what happens when you don’t take responsibility for your life, destiny is what happens when you commit to growing, learning, and taking chances.
- Being “destined for greatness” only comes through active and conscious decisions. But fate is what happens when you let other people and external circumstances dictate your life
- Fate is when you meet with an OPPORTUNITY, what you do with an opportunity is DESTINY
- If you do the right things according to your BaZi chart, you can be DESTINED to be SUCCESSFUL
Do We Have Control?
