"What others say about you does not define you. - Smriti Irani"

Mumbai, March 30

Television superstar turned politician Smriti Irani penned a powerful motivational note for anybody who has been 'mocked, targeted, or quietly wounded by careless words', urging them to rise above negativity and choose self-worth.

Sharing a picture of herself on her social media account, Smriti used the song 'Can I Call You Rose?' by Solomon as the background track.

She further added, 'In a world consumed by self-importance, where every opinion demands to be heard, some mistake noise for influence. They believe their words can redefine how someone sees themselves."

The actress further wrote, "This is for anyone who has been mocked, diminished, targeted, or quietly wounded by careless words-once or repeatedly. What others say about you does not define you."

Asking people to observe the naysayers, Smriti wrote, "Look closer, and you'll often find that the urge to tear someone down comes from a place of their own limitations-their frustration, their inability to build something meaningful through effort and integrity."

She added, "So keep going. Life is far too short to be lived under the weight of someone else's bitterness. Choose joy. Choose forward motion."

Elaborating on the picture shared by her, Smriti wrote, "And if you look at my expression in the photograph-it's not anger, not confusion, not defeat. It's the face of someone who hears it all, understands it for what it is, and simply chooses not to carry it."

She concluded by as asking everybody to keep moving on and not wait. "Keep walking. Quietly, steadily, unapologetically. #mondaymotivation,'" she wrote.

Good advice, but coming from a politician it feels a bit rich. She's been in the centre of many political controversies where words are used as weapons. Practice what you preach, madam. The message is universal, but the messenger's credibility matters.

Tulsi Maa giving life lessons! 😍 From managing a huge parivaar on TV to handling real-life trolls, she's seen it all. Her journey from TV bahu to a Union Minister is itself a lesson in ignoring naysayers. Monday motivation sorted!

Interesting to see this blend of pop culture and self-help. The reference to the song is clever. In a country with such a strong culture of respecting elders and authority, this message about self-worth beyond others' opinions is particularly relevant for the younger generation.

"Their inability to build something meaningful" – this line is gold. So true in our workplaces and even families. Often, criticism comes from those who haven't achieved much themselves. Time to focus on our own karma and ignore the noise.

Whether you agree with her politics or not, you can't deny her resilience. To transition from an iconic TV role to a tough political arena and still stand strong... she's lived this advice. The part about choosing joy is a simple but powerful daily reminder.
