Implications of Fatalism
People who have a fatalistic outlook may be more likely to take risks such as not following road safety rules, as they may believe that it will not make a difference.
Fatalism can also lead to feelings of resignation and hopelessness, as individuals may feel that they have no control over their own fate. This can lead to them giving up hope, as they may believe that there is no point in trying to change the outcome.
Fatalism can also have a negative impact on mental health, as it can lead to anxiety and depression.
