Natural-born psychic, certified spiritual healer, automatic writer, and spirit guide communicator Sharmila Cirvante has always wondered if “luck” really exists, if manifestation is for real, or if life simply happens when effort meets the right moment. She said, “We’ve all faced moments when things fall into place so neatly that it seems like a miracle. A call comes at the right time. A meeting happens by chance. Something works out despite the odds. And suddenly, even the most practical among us quietly think, ‘My stars must be lucky’ or ‘I manifested this.’ Of course, if it goes sideways, luck is still our culprit.”

“More than luck, I think belief plays an important role. When you believe something will work, you don’t just hope; you act differently. You keep trying. You speak more confidently. You don’t quit, however tough the going is. Is that manifestation, or is it mindset? Maybe it doesn’t matter. Because outcomes often shift when belief changes how you show up,” she added.

She stressed that mindset doesn’t replace destiny or timing, but it decides how you respond to both. She said, “Two people can respond differently to the same situation. One may focus on failure, while the other pursues success. Over time, we describe one as ‘fortunate’ and the other as ‘unlucky,’ without noticing how much of that difference came from belief and perspective, not chance.”

She believes people like to placate themselves with their little placebos. “The blessed bracelet is worn on important days. A silver coin in the wallet. A spoonful of curd before starting something new. Do these things actually change reality? Probably not. Do they change us? Absolutely,” she said.

“While we know they’re not responsible for the results, emotionally, they calm us, and calm creates confidence. That alone can change outcomes. So I wonder, do people really get lucky, or do they quietly build it? Through consistency. Through showing up even when nothing seems to be happening. Through choices that feel small in the moment but powerful over time. What we call luck often looks like preparation that finally met timing,” she added.

Sharmila insisted that most of us can point to at least one moment in life that felt undeniably lucky. “A missed opportunity that later felt like a blessing. A chance encounter that changed direction. Looking back, those moments feel magical. But often, they happened because we were already moving, already trying, already open,” she said.

As for her lucky moment, she revealed it was when a near-death incident organically nudged her towards her calling, “to communicate with the deceased and with spirit guides, to heal people’s energy to help them regain their emotional strength.”

“Maybe luck isn’t something that finds us randomly. Maybe belief nudges us forward. Maybe mindset keeps us ready. And maybe ‘good luck’ is simply what happens when we don’t stop showing up,” she concluded.
