"great many things that occur in one's life are not in fact a product of one's own actions"
Well, this also implies that none of our actions have any foreseeable outcome. And since we're defined by our own actions, that means we have no means to define ourselves. And that's a scary proposition.
It also means we can just watch TV all day, and our chances of making it are the same as someone who gets out and hustles. I don't buy that for a minute.
