Can you create your own destiny? Orison Swett Marden said: "Don't wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize common occasions and make them great. Weak men wait for opportunities; strong men make them."
Despite unbelievable odds, there are those people who rise above their challenges and obstacles and make something very special of their destiny.
Building your destiny is a bit like baking a cake. If you bake a plain sponge cake with your life then that is all you can taste, but if you choose to make a rich chocolate cake and add spices and cream and other delicious ingredients, then your life will be filled with a number of wonderful tastes and experiences.
