COPY, EDIT & PASTE

LIFE IS BASED ON THESE THREE PRINCIPLES: COPY, EDIT AND PASTE.


If you are going to create something different or create something new then this is not for you.

COPYING

Humans have the tendency to copy things. That’s why we have trends and terms like the ‘bandwagon effect.’ We see people eating a particular food and we feel like trying it too. How do gyms work? People see others working out, getting in shape and they get influenced, they get motivated and then, they COPY THEM. Everything that you are doing today has been done before.

You, I, and everyone else are just copying.

What you are learning right now has already been studied. The job you are at right now, somebody else had it, and after you, there’s someone else who’s going to have it. The things that you are doing today: a ton of other people have done it, are doing it or will be doing it.

Who are you? A doctor, an engineer, a lawyer, a teacher, whoever you are, there are millions of others like you. So, find people, who have succeeded in your respective field and COPY THEM.

Is copying a bad thing? NO. Exams made us think that it was, but it is not. Copying can be good/bad, it just depends on who you are copying. You copy a rich guy; you become a rich guy (of course considering that you work hard/smart as he/she did.)

So, should you copy someone/something exactly as it is? The answer is NO. That’s why we land on the point called, EDITING.

EDITING

You can’t copy something that was done, and try doing it in the exact same way that it was done. If you copy exactly like it was done before then there are high chances that you are going to fail. Why, because your circumstances are different, your strengths are different and your personality is, DIFFERENT!

So, do you love what you do? (You should probably do, if not then there’s still time, please change your path) If you do then, you want to give your best and eventually be the best right? It’s very simple. Check who are the best people in your field and copy them. By copying, I mean following their path and not stealing their work/content/product. Not a big fan of plagiarism. 

You don’t want to be the best in your field? It's fine, it’s okay. But at least you want to be good enough right?  It is very, very, very simple to do so. All you have to do is find people who have already done it, learn from them and COPY it. The path is almost going to be the same. All you have to do is change a few directions according to your likes and dislikes, strengths and weaknesses and, your personality.

PASTING

 Copying is easy, editing is a little difficult, but pasting is the hardest.

         Every one of us wants to be like someone, so we try to copy them and fail. Why, because, we never edited the path!

         Some of us idolise a person, they copy him and, are smart enough to edit the road according to their life but, they fail to execute; they fail to take the journey; they fail to walk the road.

        Many of us are stuck at this exact point, PASTING! You have found your target, you have created a plan, a path, according to your own way, and all you have to do is run on that path, walk on it, or even CRAWL on it! Do you do it? No, you don’t! And then you say that it’s complicated, it’s difficult, it’s hard and it can’t be done.  No, it’s very easy and it’s very simple. All you have to do is be consistent and perseverant.  

Life is simple, YOU complicate it!

You are passionate about something, you have got a vision and you can see yourself being successful at it, that’s the exact unfortunate time when people hop in. Now they might not have the same vision or the same perspective. And most of the time they’ll be stubborn and try to not understand your perspective. Or they are not that open-minded enough to understand it. And trust me; such people don’t want to be wrong so they’ll try their best to talk you out of it. They bring in pessimism because if you notice they’ll mostly tell you all the drawbacks and the negative points if you choose to go down that path you envision. They question everything you have planned and then answer it themselves by considering the most “realistic view” of it and eventually get you all demotivated.   So when you have goals just keep them to yourself. Don’t go telling people and asking opinions because you know too many cooks spoil the broth . See, you know yourself better than anyone, so you don’t ...

Ever felt like you don’t fit in? And other people just advice you to blend and try to fit in, well don’t take that advice. See, when you feel like you don’t fit in a particular surrounding then you are getting closer to knowing yourself and if you just accept that advice and blend, you’ll probably lose the only chance you had to discover yourself. If you don’t fit, stay alone because it’s better to feel lonely when alone rather than being among people and feeling the same. There’s a quote I follow which says, “ UNKNOWINGLY you become like people you surround yourselves with.” So if you don’t feel like people around you can help you grow then leave! Remember, a smart person living with idiots is only as powerful as the idiots but an idiot living with smart people is as powerful as them. After all, it’s up to you to decide whether you want to look great for some weeks around people who are below you and eventually with time let them drag you to their level or you choose to be the p...
