Luck Can Change With Effort and the Right Timing: Shivani Gosain

Rangbaazi Dilon Ki actor Shivani Gosain feels luck is very important; however, when it is accompanied with hard work, the outcome is extraordinary.  She said, "I believe luck is a very strong factor in anybody’s life, but it can definitely be changed with effort and the right timing. A combination of hard work and being ready at the right moment plays a huge role in shaping outcomes." 

She stressed that a deep belief backed by true effort can change things in one's favor no matter what logic says. She said, "I’ve also started believing in manifestation. Effort, timing, luck, belief, and manifestation together can truly create magic."  Shivani insisted on the importance of a strong mindset too. She said, "Your own broad and strong mindset can free you from the limited thinking of people and society around you. With the right mindset, you can change and create your own destiny and fortune." 

Asked if there is a particular ritual that she follows as a source of comfort, she said, "I believe in Shiva and in a supreme power. I light a diya or dhoop every morning before leaving for work and again after entering my makeup room."  "I also do a small self-made meditation to cut down negativity and surround myself with positivity and His blessings. I carry kapur or fitkari (alum) with me as well," she added. 

She believes people create their own good luck through consistency and by making the right choices at the right time. She calls herself blessed and revealed that she has always been lucky for others and never really thought about it until someone made her realize it.  She said, "That’s when I started giving energy to myself instead of wasting it on unnecessary stress or unanswered questions in life. I also learned that 3 is Shiva’s number, and I truly feel strongly protected through many challenges—situations where anyone could have given up. But I came out stronger every time. The moment I started putting my energy into myself, things genuinely changed for the better. Yes, I am lucky and blessed, and I have no doubt about it."
