Education
I am proud to say that, in the two years since I first did this, I have since gone on to gain professional experience: As both a Marketing Assistant and as a School Librarian. I do think, however, that the skills and experience I picked up throughout my time in education are still important.

Confidence, it's what actors have in spades, insecurity too, but you'll be hard pressed to get a lot of actors to admit it. I learnt a lot from my time living as one, mainly that confidence is the art of acting like you're not insecure. We only have ourselves to sell, as an actor this is a key thing to understand, we must learn ourselves, what our strengths and weaknesses are, what about us is interesting, what makes us unique, how we can build on these things, take them with us into whatever we do, even if we have to shape them to the role we are given.
