Peace and satisfaction are essential for true happiness: Shaan Mishra

 
Maati Se Bandhi Dor actor Shaan Mishra feels it’s important to be at peace and satisfied if one truly wants to be happy. He said, “Peace and satisfaction are essential for true happiness. If you’re not content within yourself, happiness will always elude you.”
 
“An unstable mind, constantly preoccupied with work and success, leads to stress and a lack of inner peace, creating a negative aura that pushes people away. Stay dedicated and focused, and when success comes, it will bring happiness with it,” he added.
 
For Shaan, happiness is, “when you’re doing well, eating well, and living joyfully with a supportive family. It’s fulfilling your dreams, sharing peaceful meals with loved ones, traveling the world, and bringing smiles to others.”
 
“Happiness comes in various forms, linked to your dreams, hard work, marriage, children, and friends. Each type of happiness offers a unique, incomparable feeling,” he added.
 
He also pointed out that many people misunderstand the relationship between success and happiness. He added, “Today, numerous successful individuals aren’t truly happy. Happiness should not be compared to success. If you’re happy while striving for success, you’re more likely to achieve it.”
 
Can you share moments from your personal and professional lives when you genuinely felt happy? “In both my personal and professional life, I’ve experienced many happy moments. My theater days were filled with learning and innovation. Traveling makes me happiest, and successfully passing auditions brings joy. However, the key is balancing personal and professional lives. I always make time for my family and friends, and when we vacation together, I find immense joy,” he ended.
