My Personal Definition:
In my opinion, professionalism is about having a strong attitude and being able to perform at your best, even if it’s something outside of your comfort zone. Being a “professional” means being able to put a lot of effort and passion into your work and having a positive mindset towards your goals. By having passion, you are guaranteed to have put in absolute effort into the things you accomplish.
