My Confession!
<span class="html-content"> <p>I perceive that someone is patiently and meticulously reading this article, hoping to see something really crazy or maybe a vice that I have committed. Sorry to disappoint you, but that is not the case. My confession is that not all of my content explicitly expresses my ideas. In fact, some are not my ideas. </p><p>However, they are original. </p><p>Sounds confusing, right? </p><p>Originality doesn't mean that you must be the first person to invent something. So, if you feel you shouldn't do something because it was someone else's idea, you may want to rethink your decision. As a creative writer and storyteller, I read a lot of articles written by people I admire, and I take notes about their style and content. In some cases, I tell the same story but in my own way. </p><p>Let's look at it this way: if you asked three people to talk about a specific event, they would end up narrating the same thing but in different ways. It's like having two teachers take one course; you'll notice that their teaching style and personalities will influence their delivery. The point to note is that it doesn't have to be your idea, but it has to be original—it must reflect you. Similarly, you have to try to avoid plagiarism. In academics, plagiarism is a serious offense. </p><p>Find your voice and express yourself. </p><p>Be unique even as you learn from others. I'm sure the difference between the King James Version of the Bible and the Amplified is clear. </p><p>If it's not clear, then "you knoweth not what thou readest."</p><p>It could be the same story, but the articulation varies. I believe originality is creativity.</p> <p>In whatever you do, find a way to be "original."</p> <p>Learn Unlearn Relearn </p> </span>
