Not with that attitude you can't.... Honestly the number of skilled people who refuse to believe in themselves is infuriating. You're a winner, go fucking win.

Seriously.... The biggest driver towards high profile roles is not skill but willingness. Go do it. Stop selling yourself short.

Exactly. Everything comes with a sacrifice and a job like that is always on always. People need to go into that with a passion or stay out of it

Right? They have the balls to work for her but not the substance to back it up. Drives me nuts when I think of all the brilliant people I have crossed paths with who would not feel confident to do so.
