Set a professional example for your students, Don't try to "be smarter" than them but instead show them that you love the subject your teaching and you are excited to show/teach it to them.
Making each day something that I am excited about that I pass on to my students. I see each day as an opportunity for us to learn together. I don't need to have the pressure of being the smartest in the room, that will not happen anyway, but at least I can model the excitement of learning.
