My quote of the year: Destiny is not a matter of chance but a matter of choice. Its not a thing that is to come. Its a thing that is to be achieved

Your destiny in this context means your future or fate. William Jennings Bryant is credited to have said thes e great words. He was a presidential candidate during the 1800s. Although he failed to win the election it is evident from the above quote that he had a positive mideset when it comes to life.

I have great respect for those who choose to see the best in life which is why this is my best quote up until now. Whilst William Jennings Bryant might have said this statement in one of his speeches I am notsure wgheter he was aware if it will inspire the future generations .

Believing in this quote is what all those who want to succeed need to do. In simple English it tells all success lovers that to succeed they need to taken action.

Quote Breakdown

1 . Destiny is not a matter chance
To me this means that success does not come via coincidence or via expecting good luck in future. Whilst most people are lucky for the rest of their lives William Jennings Bryant was trying to tell the world that ‘luck’ is rare . Infact its not important to focus on being ‘lucky’ if you want to succeed. Most people focus on gambling and playing lotto in life but it does not work like that to succeed in life. Out of a 100 million of those who play lotto only maybe 5 peeple may win. People spend so much money playing lotto rather than using tht money to invest in something more valuable and worthwhile. So if you want to succeed know that it is more valuable not to expect good luck.

2 . Destiny is a matter of choice

This simply means that you choose to succeed by yourself. You have the choice over what type of life you will be living in the next 6 months, next 12 months, next 5 years or in the nest 50 years.
Its by choice whether you will be happy or sad today, rich or poor tomorrow or even positive or negative minded in life. To William Jennings Bryant we decide by ourselves our fate. Others cannot decide how we will live our lives on earth

3 . Destiny is not a thing that is to come

Your success is not a thing that is to come whilst you sleep on your bed. It needs concious action to succeed in life always.

4 . Destiny is thing that is to be achieved

To get anything in life we need to work hard for it.
