An Untold Misadventure of the Know-It-All

​Ugh, emanating intellectual brilliance in every room and the entire internet? It’s an absolute workout. Still, serving daily wisdom nuggets to those meandering in the maze of ignorance was her specialty.

It’s a tough job being everyone’s unsolicited savior, but hey, if not her, then who? Engaging in Mission Impossible: Unleashing Unsolicited Brilliance was undeniably her calling.

Sauntering through doors with the confidence only a veteran wisdom-wielder could showcase, she was certain every eye sparkled with admiration for her gleaming aura of unmatched intellect. Until - BAM! - she collided with a deceivingly pristine glass screen while religiously monitoring her like count.

Oh, discard that day, it was an outlier. Ignore the fact that her post, even after hours of fervent refreshing amidst forehead stitching, captivated only two sets of indifferent eyes. Merely a hiccup, her burgeoning legion of fans would doubtlessly be quivering in anticipation for her next invaluable wisdom drop.

A whisper of doubt feathered through her thoughts. Her website’s visitor count, a frozen twelve, must be a tech glitch, surely? And those eyes of her colleagues, they were steeping admiration, right?

Then, it all snapped into sharp clarity - an online course was it! A way to mold her fans into intellectual mavens, just like her. Just you wait!

Stay inspired. Keep inspiring.
