When the predictability of outcomes is zilch

Some people want to get everything right and trust the effort little to fetch results. They would choose the right astrological timing, wear the right gems, and even rename themselves, in order to achieve a desired outcome of an effort. They'd consider it utter callousness to discount the propitiousness of the timing, the radiance of the gems or the vibrations of their names. Above all this, there'd be God whom they would invoke or the god-man whose blessings they would seek. If astrology were true, and it predicted bad times for an individual, and if the bad times could be bypassed through gemological or numerological changes, then astrology is wrong. And, if one chose Topaz over Emerald, by choice, then it was probably destined to be so. If these three 'gies' (and a plethora of other such branches of interventional life studies) are what people believe them to be, then they share the locus of control, which is the life of the individual, and would obviously be conflicting or redundant if followed altogether. It's logical if one goes by one of the 'gies': Astrology, Numerology, Gemology, God-man, but not all! If one trusts one of these "gies" wholly, then where is the need for any other? And, if one trusts in the biggest of the 'gies', God, where is the need for any other? Above everything, if one concentrates on the pleasure of doing the action more than its result, then there's nothing called failure.
