If you're following someone else's tracks, where do you... - Deepstash

If you're following someone else's tracks, where do you think those tracks will lead you? To your own destination or to theirs?

And even if you'd be happy with their destination, do you really think you could do it better than them? It's their path. They're driven by something deep and internal. You can't get ahead if you're always a few steps behind. If you're always reacting rather than creating.

  • If you don't know who you are, you'll always try to be someone else. And thus, you'll never be the best. Your work will always be a cheap imitation. It will lack the feeling that produced the work or the idea. Hhhb ghhb
