Idk if this will make sense to any of you. But does fate/destiny take control of a person? Or is it more like a treadmill that cannot be stopped once you get on it? For instance, people like Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacqiuao who rose from extreme poverty into legends of their sport. Once they decided they wanted to be the best at their craft, was it simply inevitable? They could have easily died in their youth, but for some reason fate/destiny played out in their favor?
Still not sure if I'm asking my question properly, but I'll appreciate any response.
>>42168662Both, the treadmill is also fall-resistant. It’s quantum.
>>42168682What destiny have you walked yourself into, or should I ask, which destiny has chosen you to walk its path?

>>42168662Largely left to our own deveices but there seem to be canon events.We were in a situation once and suddenly was as posessed and showed uncharacteristic bravery and competence once. So I think destiny jumps in to nudge history in the predetermined direction once in a while. Minor deviations don't matter and if they stack up history does a few large events to correct them.
>>42168662Fortune favors the bold, but for every Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacquiao, or superstars in any sport, there are also many millions who doesn't make it. Those who typically make to the top are the ones who dedicate their life to it. Those train and practice more than the others. Those who have the inner drive to always progress and work on their weakness to become better and be at the top. There are a lot of natural talents who waste their potential because their superior talent make them arrogant and lazy. They don't have the drive and dedication to practice.
>>42170215So from your perspective, was their success happenstance or was it inevitable? Surely there were other fighters that had the same dedication, but destiny wasn't on their side.
>>42170260I think one can be destined to a certain degree and have the potential for greatness in a spiritual sense often reflected in astrology and numerology, but not guaranteed or inevitable as that would kind of go against free will in a way. Ones time in the limelight can also be very quick and brief with a subsequent fall, does that count as destiny? Tiger Woods, one of the greatest athletes (if you consider a golfer an athlete), now an alcoholic sex addict fallen from grace.
real fighters practice martial artboxing is crap and for retards to get brain damage and earn money to throw matchesreal skilled people all got assassinated with guns or clapped after being exhausted from training by the mob
>>42170688I understand what you're saying. But what I'm saying, is more that destiny is a force. Kind of like God or nature. Surely there is someone today who is stepping out of their home for the last time unbeknownst to themselves. Death awaits them in a car crash, slip/fall, or any number of ways of dying. Their fate and destiny stops at today. So it makes more sense that if someone is going to be successful or reach a certain height, they are protected by destiny itself.
>>42168662yes. there are inevitably, unavoidable times where a grander story written by forces in control of the choices and events given to you, will shove you into a really hot, crazy, insane time where stakes are high, you're running on fumes, everything is on fire, and shit gets out of control. these times are brutal. and it happens to everyone at some point. there's no point in coulda woulda shoulda. we always think about what we could have done differently, but the surrounding forces pushed for certain things to happen. like you get drained, stuck in a really bad situation, up shit creek without a paddle, and you lose composure and go wild.it's haunting because bad stuff goes down and you just can't escape it. it becomes something that you have to carry for the rest of your life and own it, because fate decided so.btw, general tip for catalog readability. nix this opening sentence.>Idk if this will make sense to any of you.it gets in the way of the catalog preview and is completely unnecessary.
>>42170260>>42168662there are also factors that can prevent you from using a great talent you had since birth. or rather, cultivated in past lives and giving you a huge advantage in that skill area for the current life. but sometimes life puts a huge roadblock and preventions to keep us away from achieving what we know we're born to do as a career, because it isn't yet time. the blockade will be removed at a future point, a project or several dropped on you, and the green light.but i haven't quite reached that part yet.
>>42170688>rise and falltwo sides of the same coin. a person at their performative best, but then at their lowest, bound in chains. it's still the same person. but with many different clashing life factors going on. nobody can truly have it easy, problems always crop up somehow. if a kid somehow is rich yet sheltered, they invent new neurosis like ridiculous made up identity stuff. it there isn't already a problem, a problem will show up someway, somehow.

Death and taxes.Drop a stone in a stream and it just flows around it.
>>42173232Nobody's journey is ridiculous, kid.
Posting in kingly thread.Don't listen to the naysayers, op, you're born for greatness. In fact, you've already done all of this before. This is merely an encore.
>>42168662It’s like the acorn, the soil and the sun. I think there’s a capacity for greatness/ambition/whatever you want to call it that we all tap into at the right times, and then there are some people who stand out because destiny was in their favor. Some of it is circumstance and luck in a practical sense, in that not everyone had the opportunity to be Kobe, but it also doesn’t happen without the determination and effort, Kobe wouldn’t have become a giant without deciding to push his game to the limit and take every opportunity, so it’s both.

>>42178414No such thing as luck.Only favor and preparation.
>>42168662I dunno I believe in God which goes along with fate but it's not the sameI set out to be the best guitarist I could possibly be and I actually did meet my own standard. I can't play anything and everything YOU want me to but I can almost play anything I personally care toI learned a lot and wrote a lot but my goal was literally just to become as good as possible and while it worked you start to realize if you're into these things for the right reasons that money and fame really don't compare to the feeling of accomplishment when it comes to gaining the raw fucking skillI also didn't actually care to try and make money from playing so there's that but regardless, I do feel like I was born to play music/guitar but I don't believe I was born to make money (lmao) which goes hand in hand with fameor you could say I'm a failure and coping which is probably what you'll do but I still don't think you're fated into positions you set yourself up for, even if done perfectly.
>>42183813So you're saying Tom Brady was all intent and no luck?
>>42168662it's kind of a mystery.https://www.bitchute.com/video/4fcKwaMO8sGr
>>42168662The question is: is the universe computable? I think it is not, because that would hold no real novelty and that would be fundamentally useless.>The problem is choiceThe real end to the matrix is the 4th one, where he wakes her up and take responsibility for the world.But again, if they put this in a famous movie... it's obviously accounted for. I recently made a thread about going "off script" with a bird as pic if you wanna look in recent archives. This is the sort of question i had in my mind.
>>42187499The question is: who are you, who do you want to be? You can be many things, but at each step you can strive to be something else. Do you want to be the rebel? But what's it take to be a true rebel? If you re a rebel you must have an idea of how you'd rebuild everything. If you don't, that's just irresponsible.
>>42183757Yes, whatever you choose not to believe in will not exist for you.
