Trish keeps suggesting topics for me to write about, so I suggested she write about them herself. She said she does not want to copy me.

Is it so bad to be a copycat? After all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. In any case, almost everything we do has been done by someone else before us. If we limit ourselves to doing something truly original, we might never do anything.

If you someone inspires you, go ahead and follow in their path. There is plenty of room for all of us. Be original by putting your own style onto whatever you do.

Is a quest for originality holding you back?
