Destiny


Destiny is something we all wonder about.  What is it? what will it be? Is it preordained, and mostly can we alter it?  Our destiny is what we choose it to be.  Regardless of you belief system from a spiritual or religious perspective your destiny is your own and no one else’s.  You are in control of it.  If you see we are heading down the path that doesn’t meet with your vision of who you want to be or what you need/want to have it is your responsibility to change direction.  Each of us has the power to alter our destiny. 

Bottom line, it is a decision. Your decision. No one else can change your destiny. It is all you! The biggest challenge and  first step is simple (yea right) It's just making a decision. Deciding what your destiny will be.  This ties back to establishing goals and getting clarity with your goals.
 
Second is accepting that you have the potential to make your destiny a reality or even being great.  You have to want to be the best you can be.  For that, it has been said that it takes a commitment. Being the best is not a sometime thing, it is something you strive for all the time. It is not a part time job. It is a full time job and you must do what it take to be great.  It's doing the right things, all the time. Not a few of the right things some of the time.  You do the right things all the time. No excuses.

It is a decision to be great. You must say yes to greatness. Then and only then you can move towards becoming great.  It takes a decision first.  Once you have made that commitment, you have an amazing power of that commitment to drive you, it is in your mind.  Once you get this into your heart and mind it becomes a part of you.  The actions follow the commitment.
 
Vince Lombardi once said that “The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.”

 
No matter what you do or hope to do, make a commitment to being the best.  Say yes to greatness!
