A lot of what you say is just simple common sense (“follow your gut” as you say) but it takes a certain something to get out there and do what seems like common sense. Make sense?

Evangelising yourself is all about having the confidence to speak up in a respectful way and ensuring your point of view is being heard. You don't need to be agressive or pushy, just smart and confident.
