Explore how imitation plays a crucial role in the creative process and learn how creators can benefit from actively observing and borrowing ideas to enhance their own work, as discussed through Quentin Tarantino's approach to creativity.
Episode 109: On today’s episode, I am going to break down & analyze an essay by one of my good friends & the super popular internet writer, David Perell. David is a prolific content creator, the founder of the super popular writing school Write of Passage, and the host of the writing podcast, How I Write. The essay I’ll be sharing is called Imitate, then Innovate, which explores entrepreneurs & creatives’ desires to be original, why imitation is core to every world-class performer, and why the best way to be original is—ironically—by never actually trying to be original.
