49、tation appears attractive; to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable. In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes (菜譜) and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone elses way

50、 of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a childs bicycle: they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them. In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意識(shí)地) follow po

52、 culture honors celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous(災(zāi)難性的).

They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation（絕望）. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by tho

54、se who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with all the material knocking at the door of imagination. Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not serve you. Then you can say, “I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors tragedies and declare victory, and know
