For my assignment I had to take and extract from an article posted in my blog and analyze every part of it. I hope I don't bore you haha. I looked up the bolded words on an online dictionary.

"Of all the professions out there, I think there is no other one that can benefit from “self-branding” as much as a design professional. That is because it is a profession that is almost solely driven by talent. The equation is very simple, in design it’s not about how many certifications or affiliations you have, but what gets you ahead is the quality of your portfolio as well as your plain raw talent."
