As part of my course, I’m taking math classes and could continue on to study finance or communications in university.”

2. She Ignores Reviews

While getting one of your projects reviewed can be good for an actress, it can also be a toll on your self-esteem. Nélisse says that this is the reason she avoids reading comments and reviews on her projects. She tells Made In, “I also get sent reviews, but I never read them. Everyone has a different opinion and I prefer not to read negative comments.”

3. She Stays True To Herself

Nélisse says to Made In that she doesn’t feel the need to change her personality or persona in public or on social media. “Of course, I’m careful with what I publish on my social channels but I stay myself. Actually, I can’t not be myself in life and it’s funny since my job is to become someone else. But I think it would be so taxing to try and be someone else online and it would feel strange since I meet a lot of people who see the real Sophie.”

4. She Stays Positive

Being an actress can be very difficult. It comes with a lot of rejection and negativity. However, Nélisse tells Made In, that a big part of her success is staying positive. “I have a positive energy and I’m an extrovert, which are traits that are important to succeed in my job.”

5. She’s Persistent

Nélisse tells Made In that she is a very persistent person, and encourages others to have that same attitude. “If I had to give one piece of advice, I would say: don’t give up. There are times that feel more difficult, but you should never throw the towel in and listen to those who say you should do something else. In my industry, it’s about timing and chance circumstances. When I’m not selected for a part, it feels like a blow on the spot, but I believe everything happens for a reason.”

Also I did not do my part too, maybe I didn't have the best diet, I did not exercise – but at that time you do not know how to get fit or how to get the body you really want." After a medical scare, Silva has put those struggles behind her.

3. She Loves to Travel

Silva loves to travel, and shared a photo from the Eiffel Tower. “Even with a thousand filters I use, nothing compares to observing her beauty up close...❤️😍,” she captioned it.

Tuck your chin in slightly, and keep your head balanced over your shoulders. Benefits of Pose: Increases awareness of posture overall. Lengthens the entire spine. Can help improve balance when practiced with eyes closed.

2. She Eats Spirulina Pasta

"Spirulina is known primarily for its high protein content," Sydney Greene, MS, RD, tells our sister site Eat This, Not That!, which adds: “However, in order to consume 15-20 grams of protein per meal, you would have to supplement it with other high protein foods. For example, one tablespoon of powdered spirulina yields 6 grams of protein, which is a lot, considering it's only 45 calories. Add spirulina to smoothies with a serving of plain Greek yogurt in it to increase that protein intake.”

Collagen peptides may or may not help your skin. Adding protein to your diet is essential. “From a general health perspective, it is important to ensure adequate protein within your diet.

4. She Takes Walks

The reward comes from witnessing your success in real time, and enjoying the mental reward of celebrating your step-based accomplishments.

Parents of children with developmental disabilities find that recreational activities, such as swimming, improve family connections,” says the CDC.
