Samantha shares her happiness secrets. Samantha shared her happiness secrets participating in the All India Management Association’s 52nd National Management Convention held in Delhi.
She said “The previous version of me probably had five films releasing in a year because that was the symbol of a successful actor… you needed to have five films, a big blockbuster, you had to be on the list of Top 10 actors. That was needed to be endorsing the biggest multinational brands. Today, I haven’t had a film release in two years; I am not on any lists. I don’t have 1000-crore film, but I am the happiest I have ever been.”
She continued and added that that version of herself “scared” her, “I was so fragile. Every Friday would change and give me anxiety, that someone will claim my position tomorrow, I would be replaced. My whole self worth was based on the calculator of that Friday.”
She shared “I know a lot of my followers follow me for the glamorous life and movies that I do. But through my podcast, they also consume information on health. God forbid they need it one day, they will know where to go for it. With my wellness investments, the idea is to not land in that state of helplessness which I once found myself in. I do not wish it for anyone else. Also, keeping a gratitude journal for one year changed my whole personality. From someone who was always looking for what’s going to go wrong, always fearing how I am going to mess up…if there was success, I would forget it the next day but failure would stay for a long time. A year later today, my whole attitude towards failure and hiccups has changed.”
