I don't believe in any god right now, but I do believe in destiny. If something is not in your destiny, you won't get it, no matter how hard you work and try. The Chinese idiom "一分耕耘,一分收獲"(1) is only a linear approximation. Another Chinese idiom "人算不如天算"(2) tells us the truth. Sometimes people use heroes overcoming obstacles as examples of conquering destinies. However, in my opinion, their successes in overcoming the obstacles are in their destinies. They didn't conquer their destinies at all.
