Acting, Drama<br />

For convincing others of the sincerity of<br />

your actions, this skill is not to be confused with<br />

convincingly portray an emotional state, temperament<br />

characteristics, imitate another’s mannerisms,<br />

or similarly act inconsistently with their true nature<br />
