Fate vs. Destiny

About This Talk

Chris draws a line between meeting a fate and achieving a destiny. A fate, he says, is a random outcome that comes when we haven’t put our desires, will and vision into what we want, while a destiny comes when we do. He asks listeners to decide which one they’re choosing in each part of their lives.

Key Ideas

• Meeting a fate means a random outcome, because we haven’t put our desires, will and vision into the result.
• Achieving a destiny comes from putting our thoughts, passions, desires and vision into the outcome we want.
• In any part of life, ask whether you want to achieve a destiny or simply meet a fate.

“Do I want to achieve a destiny or do I just want to meet a fate?”
