Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below.
Too often, peopleespecially young people, who may not have settled on a firm identity yettry to imitate others, because it is easier to do so than to develop their own unique individuality. They focus on trying to imitate what seems attractive or desirable in others. But imitating others is never a good idea: when we imitate others, all we do is harm our ability to develop our own individuality.

<p>my essay:
some people think that imitating successful pacemakers will allow them to achieve these people's success . But this tenet is not always true. People should always put in mind that imitating others will only cause them to lose their potential. Several examples in our real lives may accentuate my point of view.</p>
<p>Oprah Winfery is one example of a successful woman who dind't try to imitate others to achieve her success . She always believed that standing true for yourself and searching for your potential are the only ways for a successful person . Operah's belief that imitating others is one way of destroying yourself allowed her to focus on her abilities and potential . Operah was ranked as "the most influncial woman in the world " </p>
<p>Moreover, many people tried to imitate Michael jackson's . Many tried to usurp his ways of dance , but of these people failed to become popular and loved as Michael Jackson was .</p>
<p>On the other hand , Imitating others is not always unaccepted. Many people tried to imitate Gandhi's teachings and displines . Also , many followed his concept of nonviolent disobedience which , of course, would never harm anyone in any case . </p>
<p>After deep scrupolousness of the above-mentioned examples , It is clear that imitating others is exactly like someone who decided to commit suicide . be confident , stand for yourself , and search for your abilities and be sure that you will conquor your goals.</p>
