That what goes well is his own doing and that what goes badly is the doing of the gods are the beliefs of Oedipus in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Oedipus appears to believe that things are best done himself. He has confidence in his ability to meet challenges. For example, he makes an effort to outrun his prophesied fate as his father's killer and his mother's husband. When things fall apart personally and professionally, he turns around and blames the gods instead of his own panic stricken behavior and secretive nature.

'King' is an English equivalent of 'Rex' in the play 'Oedipus Rex'.
