interview with The Guardian<\/a>, the star opened up about this.<\/p>\n\u201cMy appetite for racing forward has really been reined in,\u201d Hemsworth said, reflecting on his father\u2019s diagnosis. He claimed that this development made him more aware of the fragility of things. Hemsworth added, \u201cYou start thinking, \u2018My dad won\u2019t be here forever.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
He further shared his thoughts on the passage of time and the changes that come with it. \u201cMy kids are now 11 and 13. Those nights where they\u2019d fight over sleeping in our bed, suddenly they\u2019re not happening anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n
For Chris, this also meant rethinking what success meant to him. \u201cI used to think maybe if I was nominated for something, I\u2019d feel good about myself. Or maybe if I had the biggest film of all time, or launched another franchise, then I\u2019d feel fulfilled,\u201d the actor said, \u201cIt\u2019s absurd. My self-worth doesn\u2019t rest upon all of those exterior things anymore, though I still have to remind myself.\u201d<\/p>\n
Now, the actor focuses on other priorities instead. \u201cI\u2019m getting better at relaxing, making more curated decisions, working with people I admire,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
In Chris Hemsworth: A Roadtrip to Remember, the Australian actor offered an intimate glimpse of his father\u2019s struggle with the early stages of Alzheimer\u2019s. \u201cPeople like to pretend [Alzheimer\u2019s is] not happening, because it\u2019s so uncomfortable for them, so you suffer in silence. People talk to you about the footy and the weather and stuff, and no one actually says, \u2018How are you doing? Are you scared? Are you afraid?\u2019\u201d he added about the film.<\/p>\n
