The Winds of Fate

“You can either follow your dreams with determination and persistence until they become true, or you can be blown by the winds of fate - where anything can happen.”

The quote means you have a choice between actively pursuing your goals with dedication and perseverance or passively letting life happen to you, leaving your future to chance. Following your dreams involves making deliberate efforts and having the self-belief to overcome obstacles, while being "blown by the winds of fate" means having no control over your direction and allowing circumstances to dictate your life. 

• The path of dreams: This is the active path of agency, where you set a goal, believe in your ability to achieve it, and work persistently to make it a reality, even when facing challenges. It's about taking control of your own destiny.

• The path of fate: This is the passive path, where you don't take charge. Instead, you are at the mercy of external forces, and your outcome is unpredictable because you haven't made any determined effort to shape it.
