What about them?
Then their destiny and will are in conflict.

Then their destiny and will are in conflict.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
Sounds like the same thing to me.
What about people who try to fight their destiny? Like heroes?
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
I say they’re one and the same, if we’ve already established that you can circumvent and change destiny.
A destiny is like the path you were meant to take, and it's something that always happens if you make the right choices along the way. Your will is just something you want.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
And we’ve reached the point where we’re talking about will, instead of destiny.
Your destiny is out of your control, but your will is your own.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
That’s the problem with believing in destiny so hard. One failure deals a blow to your confidence and then it’s all just a consequence of the Ouroboros of self-fulfilling prophecy from there.
In that case, you just go after whatever your new destiny is, if you still have one.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
Not even. You fight one destiny off while still putting in effort to improve yourself and you’ll end up with a better one.
I don't know about that... I've never seen it happen. If it does, the odds are probably against you.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
Then you can circumvent that one too.
It's all downhill from there. Once you start to fight destiny, you're buried by it.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
Or just a different destiny.
It might not be a very good one though.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
Sure. But is it worth rushing? Is it worth obsessing over? Do you miss anything along the way by making choices to accelerate or guarantee the event happens? Does anything change based on when it comes to pass, or how it happens? Living it out is one thing. Letting the knowledge influence your life prior is another.
I don't know, I feel like missing your destiny can leave you in a dead end somewhere. Knowing the direction you're supposed to go can save you from a wrong turn.
<Snipped quote by Fractured>
Random natural wonder I used as an example. Not an important thing.
<Snipped quote by Zeal>
Give me anything meat and potatoes and I’ll be loyal to you for life.
If that was your destiny, there could easily be something greater for you to find if you live it out.
