27、k. People look up at him and give him authority because hes a great educator. Instead of sharing information thats far too difficult to understand, he figures out what your problems are and finds out a way to fix them. He doesnt try too hard to impress his followers because by now theyre already pre
28、tty impressed with the desire to solve peoples problems. Depending on what field youre in, you can share with people things you know and you think theyll want to know as well. If youre a nurse, for example, you can make a blog post for common health problems and quick remedies (疗法) people can do at
