It is respect for others, for the woman who is similar to me and for the woman who is different from me. The concept of respect is very undervalued; I don't have to support you and accept who you are and what you do just because you are a woman, but I do owe you respect, always. My professional journey has only just begun, so it's too early to add up the difficulties I've faced. But I learned one thing right away, it's obvious but it's true: 

Jump in and start doing, without waiting and expecting it to be perfect, don't put it off because you don't have this or that, but do, do and do.

You learn and improve by doing, by getting your hands on things. Theory is not enough, you have to do. This is the same concept that I am now applying to my career as a filmmaker. For years I studied cinema as a self-taught filmmaker, while I was studying economics at university, avoiding the camera because I didn't feel ready yet, thinking that I had to know everything on a theoretical level before I could even think of being able to compare myself to those people who had an academic background. So 7 years of pure theory and zero practice have passed. Now it's time to apply, it's time to be in the field and put aside concepts and definitions.
