It is better to try to be original than to
merely imitate others, in my opinion imitation is
always necessary before we can create something
original. Idea and creativity are very
important, these are two main reasons behind
anything that is successful. Products from
company such as Apple had proven that being
original is always better than trying to imitate
others. The best example is their most successful
product Iphone which outsells every single phone
in the world and changed our life just from being
original. Their success has proven that being
original is better than imitate others. To
imitate others is usually very easy,all they have
to do is to follow the steps,  but all the hard
work is done by the people who were original, and
most of them had experienced failures and
hardships. Not surprisingly it is the "original
ones" always gets all the credits.  In our
world, not everyone is as smart and creative as
Thomas Edison, sometimes we have to learn to
imitate others first before we can become
original. Imitating is not always bad, it can
also help to improve the product.  It's always
better to try to be original than to imitate
others, but imitating others is not always bad.
We have to learn to imitate before we can create.
