Sharon Stone on Happiness: "I Fight Every Single Day"

"Getting up every day is a conscious decision – especially on the difficult ones."
Actress Sharon Stone spoke openly in an interview with Vogue Adria about the daily challenge of being happy. The 67-year-old emphasized that she actively works every day to feel joy in life despite internal resistance and burdensome experiences. She speaks not only of discipline but also of courage: "I choose every day to get up and fight – even when I don't feel strong enough."
Stone, who has faced numerous setbacks in the past – including several miscarriages, a stroke in 2001, and the early death of her nephew River and her brother – is not alone in her stance. Psychological professionals also confirm the value of actively engaging with one's own well-being.
Happiness is more than a fleeting moment
According to psychotherapist Elisa Stefanati, happiness is not a fleeting emotional state but a dynamic balance between internal needs and external challenges. "The mental state we call happiness does not arise on its own," says Stefanati. Rather, it is a conscious decision, a process that requires discipline, adaptability, and self-acceptance.
Body, mind, and relationships in harmony
It's not just the mental attitude that plays a role. Physical health and social relationships are also crucial. A balanced lifestyle with enough sleep, exercise, and healthy nutrition forms the basis for mental balance. Equally important: stable social bonds characterized by empathy and mutual trust.
Sharon Stone's statement – "I show myself every day that I can do it" – reflects precisely this attitude. For Stefanati, this is not a naive perseverance slogan but a serious approach: "Accepting oneself, reflecting on one's goals, and remaining open to change – that is true mental resilience."
