In which direction are you moving?

“The great thing in this world is not so much where you stand, as in what direction you are moving.”

--Oliver Wendell Holmes

My Thoughts:
On which platform you are standing is not of any importance. The train you take determines your destination.

Same is with your life, where you are – is not important, what you do is what determines your destiny.

Man and Destiny

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Saturday, 14 Mar '09

"Every man has his own destiny: the only imperative is to follow it, to accept it, no matter where it leads him."

--Henry Miller

My Thoughts:
As I have said in my earlier quotes that each one of us has a reason to be here on earth. And that each one of us has a destiny written.

So understand that whatever happens; happens for a reason. You need to understand this and follow your destiny. But that’s not it! You should be able to accept your destiny and do what is correct for all.

Choice not chance

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Tuesday, 20 Jan '09

“It's choice - not chance - that determines your destiny.”

--Jean Nidetch

My Thoughts:
I do believe in destiny and know that it’s all already written there. I am doing something or I am at some place only because it’s my destiny that I am following.

But then you have your own free will to take your decisions. So you are at that place because you have made a decision and so you have determined your destiny.

Nothing we can do about it

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Tuesday, 13 Jan '09

“We don't always get to choose who we are. Sometimes, our destiny leads us to places that we don't want to go, and there's nothing we can do about it”

--Anonymous

My Thoughts:
It’s all already written in your destiny; that is what I believe. You would find yourself, many a times, in such a situation where you would ask yourself – what am I doing here or why am I doing this

But the reality is that you are doing something or are at some place only because it’s your destiny and you can hardly do anything about it. All that is in your hand is that give your best.

Prisoners of mind

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Tuesday, 30 Dec '08

“Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds.”

--Franklin D. Roosevelt

My Thoughts:
I have a pre-decided destiny and I believe in fate. And it is said that if something is going to land up with you then nobody can take it away from you and vice versa.

If something is in my fate, then it is surely be mines. Then the question is why should I try? This is how we become  prisoners of our own mind.
