Destiny is not to be waited for: it is to be Achieved
Oh I don’t know, if it’s your destiny I think you can wait around for it…I mean it is your destiny right?
I don’t know about that. If one sits around waiting for destiny their destiny will be sitting around. It’s like a journey of a thousand miles, starts with but a single step. One has to do, in order to get.
The definition of the word Destiny:
“The predetermined, usually inevitable course of events beyond human power or control.”
Now if that is an accurate definition, and I think it is, then I suppose you can lift weights all you want, you won’t be changing your destiny. Perhaps it was your destiny to lift weights to begin with. Either way…according to the definition you didn’t have much say in it. Right?
It seems that you will achieve your destiny no matter what you do.

Definitly a word that reguires a greater definition.
It is your destiny to be a, Doctor, Soldier, Engineer, etc. Or Maybe you are strong enough to make your own. Which every it may be is really all that important.
The important of your destiny is your preperation for it. Going to be a doctor, it is best to perpare for it ahead of time. Same with an Athlete or a Carpenter.
If one simple awaits their destiny, it will really suck. It one achieves their destiny, they could rise to the very top.
Look at it this way. It is your destiny to live to the age of 101 years. Now here are two choices for the out come of that destiny.
1/ Laying in bed wasted away to nothing. Being feed through a tube. All alone in your last days.
2/ Still kicking it. Moving a lot slower but doing it under your own power. Still flerting with the ladies and eating real food.
The first waited for their destiny, the second achieved it.
