Picasso once said, "Good artists copy. Great artists steal." This was one of Steve Jobs' favorite quotes. And Steve Jobs once said, "We have always been shameless about stealing great ideas." So wait a minute. Is it a good or a bad thing for entrepreneurs to steal great ideas? Is being a great copycat good or bad?
I discuss that topic in this video, and share the following four ways that the most successful entrepreneurs copy others:
#1: Eliminate -- 6:57
#2: Reduce - 7:19
#3: Raise - 7:37
#4: Create - 7:49

Stealing Ideas: Good or Bad?
Key Takeaways:
We all are copycat. But copy great people and add your own story.
Woooah
Stealing ideas: Good or bad?
The answer: Bad!...very very bad!
It's stealing from the original creater without permission!!!
And it's a kind of weakness too
People need to create their own ideas!
@@I-am-victim-of-gangstalkingevvery single creation is copied(inspired) by somewhere or soneone
The best copycats copy methods, not the product. Copying products is easy but the creation of the product is what makes them originals.
Sir, it is amazing how you explain things in the way that probably no one has thought about.
if you're going to copy somebody, at least copy somebody who's worth the effort.
thank! Epic Army of Many!
A good creator never worries about who see their ideas everything is a recycle always enhance your ideas and keep it moving
Great topic, what I think people should understand is something I've learned over time and that is: everything under the sun is, has been and always will be. What determines your success on receiving recognition for the accomplishment is how YOU make it different, how YOU innovate & capitalize and how passionate and driven YOU are to see your work accepted by the masses. Thank you, I always appreciate your video topics.
+Danny Gonzalez that's exactly the point. 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
We love innovating, nothing makes us happier than taking two things or concepts that have excited for years and combining them to form something brand new that adds value to people lives, thanks for touching on this concept
e
I stopped a lot of bad habits because of you. I even started reading lol maybe one day i will be able to copy you and throw in my own personal twist to the mix.
Me: *Makes An Idea In The Comments*
Me: *Realising Somebody Made The Same Idea That Is Earlier Than You*
People: *COPYCAT*
Yea hate that
are we all connected to think that same idea?
Patrick, as always a great episode. I agree with the sentiment, and it's actually something I advise to my clients as well. I am a creativity and innovation coach, and many small startup companies and entrepreneurs often feel a shame towards the concept of working with other people's ideas. They would rather try to prove that they are super original than be able to build on the progress someone else has made. The larger more established companies on the other hand have much less of a problem being a fast follower, waiting to see which innovations and ideas get traction and then copying those (as you mentioned with Samsung).
I Have always had that concept in mind,in the form of this qoute by the great Bruce Lee "Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own"
and now after watching this video, and as i'm about to start the biggest business of my career, i have a better understanding of what i'm about to do now, i see clearly now, thank you for the eye opening information, your wisdom is so much admired, your efforts are so much appreciated, i don't know why i didn't discover Valuetainment sooner, but now that i have, i'm watching one video every single day, there's so much to take from every video, Mr.Patrick i'm so damn proud to be one of your students, thank you from the heart.
Thank you very much Pat, this is so powerful and definitely clears the air about that bad feeling most people have about copying ideas. I think I'll copy something about this video and record a talk in swahili about this same topic hahahaha. most people need this message. thank you once again bro
You got it.
Bro! I'm working on copying you, you're habits, and you're leadership
Copy away champ.....
Female beginner affiliate entrepreneur here, will be copying some of your ideas and leadership. Just letting you know. Lol
@Turururu "speak English so *badly* " ... The irony :D
@Turururu Having lead the statement with "Bro!", I'm 95% sure they're Indian
Noticed this can be your best friend (authenticity) or your worst enemy (fake personality) at the same time.
At the end we all want to leave the world better as the way we found it, for the future generations.
Thanks again Patrick!
Pat,
Thank you so much for sharing such a brilliant advices and ideas with us
You got it, Usman.
I copied the video about improving sales process and trained my sales in this today (via video conference, the virus means we cannot meet in person), they were impressed and found it a good use of time. Very helpful, thanks Patrick and Valuetainment.
your one of the best teachers i respect your grind and the things you do good to you man!
how to reply the people who always criticize you and then want to put you down
and what you do to refresh and re-energize yourself yourself pat
and by the way thanks for sharing such great ideas with us patrick,you are amazing
Thank you for this video. My momentum to become a successful superstar is burning now. I will do whatever it takes. I like the area when u said that being you is what makes u original. Your own stories etc etc. I looked up you Pat. Wish u all the best and Keep it up!!!
i just got out the navy 6 months ago and got a job. i just recently quit to start a craft chocolate company thank you pat for the knowledge and inspiration. ur a true role model in life and business and i salute you for giving me the inspiration to believe in myself and get something for me and my wife. she also quit to start a jewlery company
I'm Navy too!
Thanks for video Pat! Yes we should all copy from people we admire or else we’ll be stuck with things forever. It does frustrate me that I’m slow learner man but I will take this tip.
I always remember the mouse and GUI technology that steve took from Xerox and then the famous duel between bill and steve which bill won like a king by saying "Well, Steve, I think there's more than one way of looking at it. I think it's more like we both had this rich neighbor named Xerox and I broke into his house to steal the TV set and found out that you had already stolen it" sounds they thought that being copycats is their birth right (rightly so as you say in this video) :-D
In this topic, it's more about the execution rather than the preparation.
Both require workload, but the reality is whoever closes or executes well, i.e. who sells better really succeeds.
Brands are sold now, not just the product and not just the technology. The wrapping of the brand sells and is how people perceive the solution to their problem. And that's how people receive it, and that's what matters the most.
That's why the prep, or tech work is like admin now but knowing how to sell it really matters as the numbers come in.
“What is originality? Undetected plagiarism.” -William Ralph Inge
Quote from the eBook - Steal Like An Artist
A book I'd recommend to everybody that I read this year. And Blue Ocean Strategy is a book I read this year too. One of the best I've read.
Loved the examples in this video, it resonated with me a lot 👍
Great quote.
I love this guy. He makes me feel like I'm sane
It tells us one more thing that when we make our own product (not copied) we should start enhancing it and start making it better and better so no one could outdate us ! Thank you sir , it was really an amazing video , I am 15 and a big follower of your leadership :)
+Akshit Bindal true and simple.
Thanks Pat, this was a good video!
My favorite part of blue ocean strategy was when the author said we should think about the product before, during and after. He gave an example of a movie theater that has a daycare attached so people dont have to stay at home with the kids or hire a babysitter. Thats brilliant.
Most of the electric things came from Serbian inventor Nikola Tesla. From wireless, bluetooth, infrared, remotes, electricity, even rengen for seeing bone tisue. He was the first person to mention energies like no other, that are present and we can use them, redirect them and in our reach but we cannot see them. Very good and informative video, i enjoy it!
+Johan Sebastian he was a brilliant innovator.
Copying isn't bad if you Implement it in your own original way
Very helpful thank you so much for sharing!! Wow three years later!! Well over 100k congrats!!! 🍾❤️👏🏾
So we are all copycat after all, Funny enough my soccer academy idea wasn't copied but my other business which i am working on presently was first seen here in the USA. Thumbs up Patrick. YOU ARE THE MAN.
+Bayonle Arashi 👊🏼
Thank you P!
One of the best content that you’ve created , I don’t know why people keep give up on their dreams, is simple.. they must copy PBD.
Like we did for the exams😎
Dr. J was playing the way he did before David Thomson. Dr. J played for years in the ABA when the dunk and layup were against the rules of the NBA. They finally merged after fighting each other until both were close to losing their shirt and that is when he left LI and moved to PA to play for the 76ers. I grew up not far from him but did not meet him until many years later on business when we learned that we had lived in the same town when he became wealthy and used the same realtor. NYers love and are proud of the Dr. because he like bill Russell were real gentlemen and smart in business.
Woooww…you said we’re trying to reach 100k subs…..look at you now!!
Love to see the growth! You’ve helped me grow my finances.
I will be debt free in 2 months, and then beginning my
Journey of becoming a billionaire.
Thank you 🙏🏼
Good luck i belive that you will achieve your dreams
@@inyourfacenoobsnoobes7543 thank you brother. I hope the same for you💯
@@BLSDENT im girl but i appreciate and I'm happy that you have this strong mindset, people like you inspires me do much💪🙌
@@inyourfacenoobsnoobes7543 my bad lol

Funny how he said we want 100k subscribers and today I'm watching this video for the first time and his got 2million plus how funny can life be. Drop the content and they will come good old youtube.
A vid for young men who want to learn business but don't know where to start and what to learn first would be great ! Keep up the great work ! The succes for this channel will come and I know that You know this !
+Luta Albert 👊🏼
love those book shelves in the background
"I used to worry about copying other ideas, about being totally original. I finally let that go when I realized: even though this is not the first time it's been done, this is the first time I am doing it." - A horrible paraphrasing of a 30X40 Design Workshop quote
watching your videos regularly(addicted)..I'm inspired and motivated by them. thank you!
+Varenya Dv 👊🏼
10:10 oh come on I was waiting for a "then booom!!" at the end of that :)
You're a brilliant man! I will be reading these books and subscribing to your channel! Thanks a million for doing this and making this video. I'm a musician going through a creative block right now, and everything you've said in this video is helping me to break through it a lot. Now I feel like I can finally run my business as well as be creative in the music side of it also. Thank you!!
There is a lot of confusion about being original...you explained it well ...
its Nicola Tesla , not Nicolas :D

potatos,tomatos, zapatos, sound the same
Thanks for this fantastic topic. One of my doubt is cleared.
Pat, you got me rolling when you said, "why do you wear clothes?, you're a copycat."
j
This "love story" part was hilarious. great vid
We need to copy the right people and products. What makes us an original: our personal stories, failures and philosophy.
ik this is one of your older videos but thanks for this brother godbless have a goodmorning
I can't even count how many ideas I stupidly shared on Twitter, and my g+, NEW WEB ! seriously pat, WE NEED 2 TALK BUSINESS, ASAP! Thx for teaching me. I GUARANTEE U, I AM AN ORIGINAL!
Great video as always! I guess you read Charles Duhigg's "Smarter faster better", but if not I am sure you will find chapter 7 "Innovation, how idea brokers and creative desperion saved Disney's frozen" to be interesting. I would say this chapter greatly complements the points you made in your video.
Great book Goda. Yes remember that chapter
fr this really helped me gain clarity and direction for my business thankyou so much
It's not really being a copy-cat: No one person invented the smart phone. People innovate, they improve, they adapt and little steps over time create results that can be considered progress. Some things can be copyrighted or patented but somethings can't, the constant improvement of everyone's ideas is what benefits the human race.
95% of the world is a copycat of the wrong cat that they're copying
I was right on Tesla, I deeply admire the man and yourself pat
I was tensed , but you reviled me
Wow this is lovely a lovely food for thought for us all. Sometimes we go ahead to copy the wrong set of people, at the end of the day we get to discover are completely lost.
Dude went off the rail on this one ...
Copy-
a thing made to be similar or identical to another.
Steal-
take (another person's property) without permission or legal right and without intending to return it.
So cool of you to recommend Blue Ocean Strategy, fantastic book.
I know that the greats copy and some, like you, copy multiple ideas and combine them into something greater than the sum of the parts. So my question is who did you copy when you came up with the idea for PHP?
Patrick this video really helped me realize how important it is to be authentic and keep it real. Loved the videos. I love the Arnold shirt and I can see your guns bro!!!
+Corey Tat 💪👊🏼
what I think is that it's also about how you sell the idea as an original although we know it's not.People copy a lot of stuff but they don't know how to capitalise on the same thing.
That is the key.
Modeling success is key!
This video is so great to watch... One of the best video valuetainment!
Thanks Pat.
I love speaking in public and i want to become a trainer and life coach.
I always admire the way Tony Robbins speaks and the way he teaches but i thought i can't be as big as him by copying what he does but now you gave me a new vision that i can be as great as him or even bigger than that by doing those things better which he does not do well.
+Farman Elahi 👊🏼
At the end marketing matters the most.Those who market the best win the game
Right when I think you got to the bottom of the smart phone mystery... BOOM! Another name haha Have me opening biographies on all these people lol Great video!💪
;)
Nothing wrong with copycat as long you can improve the idea!!
I bragged at work, and now I believe there stealing my ideas, to help the students??
You are the man... Love how you started this off.
+ohsap123 👊🏼
timing was a big factor of the iphone. a:mobile data increase b: battery life/cpu tech c: capacative touch screen and new low power high res screen.. etc..
You don't get credit for coming up with an idea. You get credit for executing on an idea.
I copy you. I have a lot of debt to pay off before I can try again at starting my business, but you're helping me chase down my dreams.
+Brandon Coleman that's the idea.
Everybody has ideas, but ideas don't mean anything unless you execute correctly.
copycats win because the rich can do whatever they want with almost zero repercussion.
It’s very simple. Get a large audience or distribution. Then when people come to you trying to improve their lives and your business with their little idea, you can steal and market it and they will likely feel so depressed that people can’t be trusted and feel so defeated that they’ll quit or won’t be able to afford action against you, especially if you’re big enough.
RIP Kobe 🙏🏾
haha, your love story book concept reminds me of that basic same thought I had a little while ago with action films. same basic story line.
Great video.Really love this channel and have been following it for the last couple of months.There's so much knowledge to take and then apply it in the real world. The channel is a great tool for young entrepreneurs such as myself. Thank You for providing such valuable knowledge that I can use to help me reach my goals.
Thanks. You got it.
From reading the book, although it may seem like eliminating, reducing, raising, and creating are the main points, I believe that the knowing what to raise and reduce is more important. Just because you reduce, eliminate, raise, and create something doesn't mean you're going to end up with a good idea. I think the book focuses more on successful business that were able to identify the "focus" of the business instead of everything. Do you think there is a limit to how much someone can copy and innovate?
+Ronifo Kamino I don't think so. 60% of Fortune 500 companies from 1970 are no longer even around. Someone will always come and disrupt an industry that affects those who have a business as usual mentality.
Great one!
When we should copycat & when we shouldn't?
Because lot of people tell us to be original.. not to become copy of some one else?
If you think you own ideas, you think to have the right to control other people brains.
You can copy ideas, steal those ideas, but if you can put your own twist to it, now that's a genius.
+Chrissy's World 100% true.
=)
Hahaha don't wear closes or shave your eyebrows that was funny...I love your sense of humor Pat
Great video, great content on which we can take DIRECT ACTION as usual! Since I have understood it a few months ago, I allow myself to have way more ideas than before!
I have a thought.
If after 3rd generation, there isnt a family member to live out Your legacy. Then what would one do...after 300 years.
So sharing can be a kind gesture
Straight to the point.
thank you for this. This has helped my biz reach well over £ 100,000 this year !
I would love to able to copy You
Hi Patrick, another great video, I have watched your videos for a little over a year now and none of them have disappointed me at all, keep up with the videos 👏👊💯, I wanted to ask you, what your business is all about, your industry, your business model, just broad details if you don't mind of course.
Someone once said to me: copy, paste but innovate.
Aakash John very well said
Just watched 2 of your videos... and I subscribed. Great stuff! Looking forward to more.
👊🏼
If the product will be better and cheaper ending helping people, I say is a most.
Im watching this because my friend stole one of my video ideas and he is saying that he didn’t go to my channel and watch the hunting The Elusive Rare SPLOOG video then look up julio the foolio went to the poolio and watch his hunting a SPLOOG video he literally stole my idea
Thankyou Patrick i used to discard ideas which i find have been done.
Can you talk about how to approach investors, and how to take an idea and create a product in a low capital situation?
It's on the list of future videos to make. Part of a bigger project.
adam grant also has a ted talk. im gonna watch it now in hopes of getting a summary of his book.
Love what your doing , truly one of the BEST channels for entrepreneurs. I was wondering about copyright infringement as far as using someone else's intellectual property to teach another and profiting from being the middle man but also giving the credit to the source outlined in the teaching lesson. I guess my question is is this illegal ? Better question Could I use Harvard business analytics in my teaching lesson and profit as the teacher but give Harvard the credit without passing money to Harvard. Hope this makes sense thank you !
So it's good to copy on test?
Pat, If you had a big idea for a product that that is gonna change our work method or to be more efficient, what kind of steps do you proceed after you have the product design? what kind of steps from 1 to 10 do you think or know is the best. I think a lot of your viewer never had the same guidelines since our mentor sometimes didn't aware that they are or they are in other type of industries.
Thanks for sharing and adding value to my day. Where did you steal the idea for this video?
