Be authentic. There was similar advice I was given during a partner presentation. Somebody said: “There will come a time in your life when you feel comfortable in your own skin.” That was very comforting for me when I was early in my career and did not feel comfortable in my own skin.
It would be remiss not to acknowledge the education piece that has been something that has changed me and set me on my career path.

It also contributed opportunities for me to develop improvements to tax law and tax policies.
