Are We Destined or DO We Decide?
Is there such thing as being born and destined to become?
Earlier this afternoon during our lecture free period, my friends were arguing about something and I was intrigued to join the conversation. The whole argument was centered on the fact that people are destined to become whatever they become in life while others argue that people become whatever they want to become in life, that there is no such thing as being ‘destined to become’.
So I had to bring that up here too, do you think people are destined to become whatever they are or there is no such thing like that? Please you can write your insight on this matter in the comment section of my post, I would love the general public opinion too, thank you.
Personally, I am not disputing the fact that some people are gifted and destined to become whatever they are but it does not always happen in all cases of life. In the little time I have lived on earth, I have come to understand that we humans are unlimited. When I mean unlimited I am referring to our ability to become whatever we choose to be.
We can do anything we ever want to do but most times the limitation is not in our abilities but in the barrier we set in our minds.
You would sometimes hear someone say “ I can not sing oo, I was not born to become a singer and so singing is not for me” hello, nobody said you were born a singer but that does not mean you cannot sing.
Everybody can sing, singing is a sound we make that is agreeable to the ears and so your inability to sing melodiously is just because you have not subjected yourself to be trained on how to sing properly and trust me, if you make up your mind to sing, you would give yourself time and necessary training, with consistent practice you would become better at it.
All I am buttressing is that we are not limited, you can always become whatever it is you choose and dream of becoming.
So back to the subject matter, is there such thing as being born and destined to become? Yes there is. We definitely have people who are destined to be whatever they have become but that doesn’t mean they are tied to it , their choices is also a major factor too and so they can choose to become or not.

Example being born in a royal family, if you are the only son, you know for sure that you are the heir and would be the king, you were actually born to inherit that but you still have the choice to become it or not.
Some people are naturally talented and gifted that makes them well fitted in a particular area but that does not mean some other person who has been trained can not fit into it too.
And football players would always say that the difference between Lionel Messi and Ronaldo is that one is naturally talented while the other is being trained. Do both of them perform very well? Yes, are both of them skilled and fitted for their career? Yes.
So whether you are born and destined to become, you still need to undergo training too, if not you will falter.
And you will still hear some people arguing that leaders are born and not made while others would say that leaders are made not born. I am of the great opinion that leaders are made and not born.
No one is limited, whatever you become is as a result of the choice you made. You can be whatever you ever dreamt of becoming. It all depends on you.
So friends, I would love to hear your opinion on this matter too. Thank you for stopping by.
