"My mother used to repeat *endlessly* to me the lines from the poem "Invictus" by William Ernest Henley."
"I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul."Dinah,
This has nothing to do with the context of the intitial post..just wondering...do you think this might have something to do with the 'magical thinking' you've described here from time to time?
No one has complete control over fate. Simply the fact that we cannot control other peoples' actions...such as when you need a job, you can't force someone to hire you as much as you can do to get there...good resume, take interview classes, etc., your fate in terms of employment is largely the other person's decision....no matter how much experience, education, and interviewing skills you have.
I'm curious, as this was something you said had disturbed you from time to time.
