When Logic Fails
Actually, I don't believe in fate or destiny. I think our lives are shaped by our decisions. I believe in free will and that we don't live according to a predetermined scenario. However sometimes something happens that throws me off this rational worldview. There are tiny moments that can suddenly and totally change our lives. Like the world would say, "So, you think your decisions are yours, right? Hold my beer!"
A few years ago, I worked at a quality assurance company in the vehicle industry and met someone by chance. We started to get to know each other, but it didn't really work out well in the long run. Regardless, sometimes she told me a few things about maybe I could be more than I am. They were just tiny thoughts, but were enough to trigger something in me and make a radical decision: new city, new goals, new profession. A field I never would have thought of.
I still don't believe in fate. But I can accept now that there are tiny moments that push us in new directions. Maybe it's not fate or destiny, but there are just tiny cracks through which strange gusts of wind can completely turn our lives upside down. I don't know why and how, but their effect is real. Almost every time I listened to such a weird gust of wind, it turned my head in exactly the direction I wanted or needed to go.

Not an obligatory correction, but "more than I am" implies a present-tense scenario, at least how I read it. Since this was a few years back, I think the suggestion above is more appropriate.
They were just tiny thoughts, but were enough to trigger something in me andto make a radical decision: new city, new goals, new profession.
I think "to" is more clear and sounds better, since the trigger "activated" the decision directionally.
A field I never would have thought of.
Fragment, but if it is meant to be a fragment for a stylistic purpose, I think it works well.

This is a very common saying that we have. Well done.

Because your next sentence implies that there was romantic interest, that should be made more clear in this sentence. Instead of "someone," you could say "a woman" if you want to subtly imply it. You could also just outright state it.

"Upside down" would make one think that it was a turn for the worse.

I generally agree with you here, and I think this echoes some belief in the Butterfly Effect. Regarding your belief in free will, according to the Law of the Excluded Middle (p ∨ ¬p), free will cannot exist. It states that "p" is either true or false. It can't be both, it can't be neither. Will is either determined or undetermined. If it's determined, it's not free will, if it's undetermined, it's random, in which case, it's not free will.

It's interesting...
Especially, because our neural system is determined by evolution, which is partially random and according to quantum mechanics, it is possible for a particle to exist in multiple states at the same time.
If the Law of Excluded Middle were true, quantum mechanics would have to be false. But quantum mechanics must be true, because we already use its potential for quantum computers and they work somehow.
I would like to talk about this topic, so I can't wait your response. :)
Thank you for the corrections.

This sentence is somewhat awkward but doesn't have a clear mistake. Maybe something like: "Regardless, she told me a few times that I could be more than I am." Or, "Regardless, she encouraged me to become more than I am."

That's a great attitude! I think part of living a happy life is accepting the changes that come your way.

Thank you! Your example sentences are much clearer than mine. I'll keep in mind that I need to write more linear thoughts that are not too complicated. Like almost everything in my brain... 😄

Anyway, you're right. Sometimes we have to accept the changes and let them to do their job. We should keep the control of our life, but not all change that happens to us is bad. Sometimes we should leave our comfort zone.
