Find a little theater group and take acting lessons. The basic principle of acting is "Fake it 'till you make it." Concentrate on vocal skills such as story telling or drama. According to John Molloy, author of "Dress For Success", vocal skill will improve earning power more than any other detail, and acting skill will get you a job offer even when you are not qualified for the job.
For examples of superb story telling go to youtube and search "Aaron Wilburn", "Utah Phillips", and "Jerry Clower".
The first thing to do to find out the true self is to find out what we are not. It's often called the ‘method of elimination’. Are we this body? What was this body when we were born? We were a baby, before that, we were an embryo in our mother's womb, and before that, we were just one cell that was fertilized – a zygote. This body, one day, will grow old, it will die, and it will be cremated or buried. Are we this body that returns to dust? Of course not. When we realize we are not the body, the next step is to find the mind - where is the mind? You cannot find. When you eliminate what you are not, not the body, not the mind, then you find your true self. The process of finding is called Realization. By inference, by spiritual inference you come to know that you are the Divine Soul, the Spirit, the Atman.
