Akosua or Ama?
I used to get upset when people asked for things, I had already provided information to in my tweet! I later realised they were asking not because they were not reading but sometimes, they genuinely didn't know yet how to manoeuvre their way around Twitter.
It changed a lot for me and how I interact with others. It took me several years to find my footings on here. So I will keep on repeating the same information over and over again if my time would allow me.
It involves a lot of my time to create these resources so what's the essence of spending all this time and the people I created it for genuinely can't or don't know how to access it?

Struggling to finish a task? Break them into smaller pieces. Right??
Let's have an eg.
You need to apply to study abroad but you are overwhelmed on what to do or where to start from because there's so much information online and everyone is saying something different or similar.
Step 1 :
Decide on what to study or which options are available for you. Google is your best friend. Eg . “Graduate programs options for Biology major”
Don't take this on the surface value. This information gives you an idea of what could be possible.
Your biology degree may not however allow you to shift into some of these fields. Out of the various options you may get, shortlist to about 4 or 5 areas that interest you. (PS: It’s important you identify the career paths that this program would land you into!
