What have you learned since modeling?

Modeling taught me patience. It’s an incredible chance to be independent but also that you should not take this too seriously. Find something that takes your mind away from the superficiality of the business, make your own plans in terms of not sacrificing everything for this, cause in most cases this is not forever. Build something for yourself on the side and try to use your career as leverage
