What is destiny? Webster's Dictionary defines the word as meaning "fate". Look up fate in the dictionary and you will see that fate means "the supposed force that predetermines events". I believe that this supposed force is our MIND (or brain). If we use our mind properly by taking action and executing our ideas and opportunities presented to us in a way that we are truly capable of, then WE become the supposed force that predetermines the events that occur in our lives. Thus destiny means to me the ultimate purpose (fate) each of us has here on Earth. Destiny is what each of us, as unique individuals, are put on Earth to do, to become. Our destiny reside within us. It is our freedom, the great potential that we have, the supposed force waiting only for our minds to unleash it.

Once you decide what it is that you really want our of life, your mind will be your ONLY competition. When you start to believe and trust in yourself and your own unique passions, you will conquer your mind's current self-limiting beliefs. These limiting beliefs are the only roadblock or obstacle that can hold you back from getting all of what it is that you really want in life. Once you have made this decision to conquer all of your self-doubt and have won this battle of the mind, you will accomplish everything that you have ever envisioned. Your mind will have ignited a fire in your heart to execute your plan by taking daily actions in pursuit of your goals. As you experience this, you will become an unstoppable force of power, fully capable of achieving more success and freedom then you could have ever imagined. Once you have done this, you will literally, Create Your Own Destiny!
