    be confident even if you're making it up as you go. the client wants answers or directions to help guide them - most of the time. you don't need to actually feel confident, in fact if you turn into one of those fucking idiots that's actually able to con themselves into believing their own crap you've gone too far. or you need to work in advertising agencies. just like holy said, you gots ta start someplace.

    also, don't take a questioner into meetings. if you can't remember what the important questions are then have notes on a writing pad. you need to discuss the brief with a client not get them to fill in a form. the discussion will get more truth – and hopefully expand the job – that a damn list of points they have to fill in.
