How To Stop Being A Copy Cat by Nobody: 10:30am On Feb 21, 2017
Many people lack creativity and that is why there are always people out there who wait for people to create, then they copy!

There are so many reasons why people copy other people’s ideas; it’s not just lack of creativity.

Lack of self-confidence is also a factor that leads to copying other people’s ideas.

Not believing in yourself is a factor too that can make you take up other people’s initiative, without trying to create your own!

Mental laziness is mostly a big problem in some people’s life, which is why they can’t think or come up with their own ideas.

People appreciate good ideas or creativity but, the ability to think fast is a problem, they rather rely on people’s strength.

It is easy to stop copying people if only you would make up your mind to start thinking.

Be focused and determine you can do anything for yourself without having to ‘hijack’ other people’s ‘thoughts.’

When you are bent on waiting for people to come up with good ideas for you to copy, you are killing your intellect!

Every one of us is endowed with a unique talent but, the sad truth is; only a few harness it wisely. No one is really a dullard.

We all have something to offer, no matter how small, that is why you should believe you can do it and yes, you can!

There are things no one or teacher would teach you, and one of them is how to think! Yes, nobody teaches ‘thinking’ as a subject!

You just have to wake up from your slumber, believe in yourself, and be bold and confident in whatever you choose to do.

Don’t be scared of failure, which is one of the factors why people copy someone else idea. Failure is just a ladder to success!

When you fail, you get up, dust yourself and try again and again until you get it right. Believe that.

It took one man’s thought to create an airplane which is a phenomenon today; it just took one man’s idea to come up with a TV set!

A lot of people live a life of copy-cat which is so annoying because, people do not like the idea of their sleepless nights stolen.

If you think you are plagued with mental laziness, there are ways you can build your mental capacity.

One of them is by developing the habit of reading, reading wakes up your brain and can give you the tip you need to think!

Like I earlier mentioned, believing in your self is vital also to being creative, you cannot be creative if you lack self-confidence.

Some people are born copy-cats; they copy anything that they come across. They even copy the way other people eat!

When you see them, they are always vigilant to know what new ideas you are coming up with so, they can copy.

And when they copy you, they spoil the original plan of your idea; they add unnecessary effects to it, thereby rending yours invalid!

One of the things that make me dislike some people is when I find out that they are copy-cats. They feed on my creativity.

It was creativity that brought about this universe, it was one man’s thought and idea and today, we are enjoying the dividends.
