How to Copy People

The key insight is that nothing is truly original; everything is an evolution. The book mentioned illustrates this with the example of Kobe Bryant studying players like Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson, copying their blueprint, and adding his unique touch. This insight encourages individuals to have the courage to try new things by finding someone successful in that area, emulating them to a certain extent, and then adding their own twist. The story of Kobe Bryant further demonstrates that one's limitations can lead to creating one's unique style when trying to imitate others.
