Are YOU, the Author of your Destiny?!

It's believed by many "You are the Author of your own Destiny!" Truthfully, well said. This time round we'll look at your destiny as your Entrepreneurial Obligation. Your destiny is your business.

Encarta® 2007 describes an entrepreneur as a risk-taking businessperson: somebody who initiates or finances new commercial enterprises. Yes, THAT's YOU. Totaly you, however difficult it may be, to believe. Please stay on board.

Most people believe Destiny to being "our pre-ordained future," to an extent, yes, though it's not entirely true. What we do or don't do leaves its mark. Knowing or unknowingly, we all contribute to our destiny. So it is not purely predetermined.

It is mostly shaped unwittingly. This leads to the perception it is preordained. On occasion, yes it is so, but mostly otherwise. The more conscious you are of where you want to go, the more control (or at least influence) you'll have over the result. It is about time we take charge, control and contribute or in the least sway our destiny. It shouldn't be left to chance.
You'd be doing yourself an injustice!

If you were to merely exist without exerting yourself in some sort of activity, your life would be short lived. You'd turn into some sort of vegetable. End up with a miserable result of a life. Following are examples of persons who influenced their destiny.

South Africa's Oscar Pistorius, the double amputee was ready to run alongside able-bodied competitors at the Beijing Olympics, unfortunately was branded a potential danger to other athletes. The guy's faster than most of us two full legged beings!

Beethoven, paid no attention to his supposed disability we now have such musical beauty! His hearing began to detoriate in the late 1790's, yet he continued to compose, conduct and perform, even after becoming completely deaf! Stevie Wonder an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and record producer. Blind from birth. Can you beat that? Now you know, what are you going to do about it?

WHO says we CAN'T?! His Excellency, the right Honorable, Barack Obama; The President of The United States of America. The Latest Phenomenon. Need I go further...? I rest my case.

Now, map your new business venture (Your DESTINY), invest in it, plan it; but most importantly, have faith in it! It is YOUR life, it is YOUR future... Only you can steer it there.

"The Power of Life and Death lies in YOUR tongue" [Deuteronomy] This is a chance for you to dream on. SO Dream big...! ! !
