Should I include every single thing I’ve ever done?

Yes, of course you can include absolutely everything, but sometimes less is more.

For instance, if you’ve performed 100 stand-up comedy or music gigs, there is no need to list every single one. Instead, highlight the key milestones such as your first performance, your first headline spot, your debut at a notable venue, a show where you shared the stage with a well-known colleague, or a show that held particular meaning to you. You could even group them together as a single milestone called ‘100 Stand-Up Comedy Gigs’ if that tells the story more effectively.

However, if you’ve acted in 100 films with distinct roles in each, it makes sense to mention every one, as each is a unique milestone. The same applies if you’ve made lots of Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube videos and each one is different. This is the place to show all of them off in one spot. If you’ve done a series of videos, it’s best to put them as a single milestone and link to a playlist or channel.

Ultimately, your page is yours to curate, but we recommend focusing on things you’ve done, made, or contributed to that are unique, significant, or stand out in some way.

For example, if you played in a professional football team, you would not list every game, just by season or year. But if you were a boxer with 20 professional matches, you would likely list each one as a unique milestone.
