Shaquille O'Neal Quotes

If you do not create your destiny, you will have your fate inflicted upon you.

The works of present life are more important that the whole and entire reliance on wholesale blind fate.

If you don't make things happen then things will happen to you.

Circumstances are beyond the control of man; but his conduct is in his own power.

Man must assume responsibility for the direction of his life and destiny.

I don't have any regrets. I made all my own decisions.

Destiny is for losers. It's just a lame excuse for letting things happen to you instead of making them happen.

Do yourself a favor. Don't ever say to me, 'Everything happens for a reason.'

This is as true in everyday life as it is in battle: we are given one life and the decision is ours whether to wait for circumstances to make up our mind, or whether to act, and in acting, to live.

Every man must decide for himself whether he shall master his world or be mastered by it.

It's choice - not chance - that determines your destiny.

We have become makers of our fate when we have ceased to pose as its prophets.

Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

Fate is for losers.

A lot of people go through life thinking that they don't have any control, that life is just happening to them. But that's not true.

There is nothing happens to any person but what was in his power to go through with.

The word 'fate' doesn't really mean much to me in some ways. I think we make our own.

In life, you get one choice over and over again. That is to take conditions as they are or take responsibility for changing them.

Nine times out of 10, extenuating circumstances aside, I believe that people are where they are by some kind of choice on their part. You need to acknowledge that, 'Hey, I'm here because I steered my horse in this direction.'

We create our own destiny.

I believe whatever has to happen will happen - you just need to stand up for yourself.

Control your destiny or somebody will.

Flying or falling, it's up to us.

We create our fate everyday

Why do you complain of your fate when you could so easily change it?
