Then, tell the reader why it's wrong.

In this subhead, debunk the myth.

And in this first sentence, give one concrete example as proof.

In this paragraph, expand on your one concrete example. If you are sharing from personal experience, tell a short story here to paint a picture of how you learned what you learned. If you're citing a stat or study, give a quick synopsis of all that you've read and what you've learned as a result.

In this subhead, tell the reader what they should be doing instead.

And in this sentence, tell them exactly how to do it/get started.
