There’s a famous poem called Invictus. The final lines say: “It matters how strait the gate, how charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.” Is that really true? Are we actually in control of our life or are we being tossed around wherever life takes?
A new trend in Japan will make the answer clearer. In most countries, palm readers and psychics aren’t taken seriously but in Japan, Palm readers are taken so seriously that people are actually having cosmetic surgery on their palms to change themselves.
Did you see the irony? The believe in what the lines of their palms say about them so much that they’re willing to take action and have surgery so their palms will say what they want instead. Instead of adjusting their work schedule to fit in more adventures, a person will change a line on their hand so it says they’re adventurous. Instead of adjusting their diet to have more energy, a person will change a line on their hand to say they have more energy.
We really are the masters of our fate and captain of our soul but only if we take action that will make a real difference in our lives. When it comes to building a fortune online, most people read a lot of information on the industry but never actually do what they read about. Reading is not doing.
