Be a man who controls his own destiny with William. James said, "Sow an action, and you'll reap a habit, sow a habit, and you'll reap a character, sow a character, and you'll reap a destiny." "Success is also character, defeat is also character.
A good character makes your life a bad character ruins your life. If you want to be in control of your destiny, you have to control your own personality. No one's success is achieved overnight, and no one can reach the sky in one step.
On the contrary, all success comes after a series of failures. The Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore said, "The goddess of fate does not like cowards who are hesitant, lazy, and believe in fate. Maybe you feel sorry for yourself, you are no worse than others, but why are you inferior to others, because you don't know anything about how to understand your destiny, and you don't know how to control your own destiny.
But there is a deeper reason, that is, one's own personality can also have a great impact on fate. Beethoven, the great ** family, once said, "I want to hold fate by the throat, and it must not completely overwhelm me." "After he became deaf, he still wrote the "Symphony of Destiny", "Choral Symphony" and many other outstanding works.
In particular, the first four notes of the "Symphony of Destiny" are strong and heavy, like the sound of fate knocking on the door, and the enthusiasm of the struggle that it expresses is very powerful. With the help of relatives and friends, Milton, a famous British writer, continued to write after he lost his sight, and wrote three great works, including "Paradise Lost", "Paradise Restored", and "Lux Samson", which left a brilliant chapter in the history of world literature. Throughout history, modern times, China and foreign countries, there are indeed some people who have handed over the right to control their own destiny to God and to heaven.
But when people take back the control of their destiny through struggle, they find that they can control their own destiny. Therefore, generation after generation of people who have become more and more conscious have been unremittingly playing the symphony of destiny of self-reliance, unyielding struggle. If you are not ideal in your studies, if your life is not satisfactory, if you are not working well, if you are still on the edge of fate and struggling, then please cheer up, although it is hard, blow all the wild sand and start to gold, the long wind and waves will sometimes hang on the clouds and sail the sea, believe in yourself, you will be able to become the master of your own life.

Character determines destiny - many secular people think so. However, the author personally thinks that character cannot control fate, and at most it will have some impact. If character determines fate, then we don't need to study, work and practice, just hire a personality analyst to know all aspects of our personality, and then find a psychologist to guide how to change our personality according to our own wishes, and finally achieve the goal of changing our destiny.
In a narrow sense, personality is different from morality, there is no good or bad, only such as introverted personality, extroverted personality, tough character, weak character, acute child, chronic child, rectum, curved intestine, etc. The sincerity or hypocrisy, kindness or meanness, enthusiasm or indifference that a person shows is not actually a person's character, but his morality, character, and heart. Let's ask, if character can determine fate, then what kind of character can determine what kind of fate?
Is there a fixed and uniform standard? Let's ask, if character can determine fate, then what character determines the life of ** and ****? What character does the life of a scientist match? What kind of character is the life of becoming a billionaire and a big boss; Let's ask, if character can determine fate, then whether people's ideology, morality, knowledge and culture, and physical quality will take a back seat, and the character of cultivating will bear the brunt; Again, character determines destiny – which sage (not a celebrity) ever said such a thing?
Presumably, even the vast Buddhist scriptures do not say this.
The Buddha said: If you want to know the cause of the past life, the recipient of this life is; If you want to know the fruits of the afterlife, the author of this life is!
I Ching Yun: One virtue, two lives, three feng shui, four accumulation of yin gong and five reading.
It can be seen that fate is determined by the karma of previous lives and the various causes and conditions of this life, and it is not simply determined by character. For those who are addicted to fortune telling, people who complain about the heavens and others, the author also follows the consolation and consolation: although character is innate, but can not determine fate, the fate of the next life is mainly determined by the behavior of this life, and the fate of this life in addition to the unfamiliar fruit of the previous life, mainly depends on the growth of knowledge, the change of mentality and the play of wisdom.
And since the personality varies from person to person, there is no need to deliberately change it - for example, if you have a weak personality, you don't have to slap your swollen face and become fat, and you don't have to be strong, otherwise you will be indecent and humiliated; It is better to develop strengths and avoid weaknesses, overcome rigidity with softness, and control strength with weakness, so as to work on the effectiveness of its nature. I learned about Buddhism in 1996, began to study Buddhism in 1998, and took refuge in the Three Jewels in 2001.
