It can make you feel that they're doing everything right/you have no idea what you're doing, even when it's not the case.

if you could only listen to one artist for the rest of your life, and you have to say only one, who would it be?

or

2. be incredibly knowledgable, barely get clients but keep them because you were sick at your job

How do you deal with clients who don’t do anything you suggest for them? Even when asking questions and they come up with the actions themselves they still don’t follow through
