However, I think that we trend on the thin ice of trying to get something for nothing when we take another's content and pass it off as our own, even with a thin veil of modificastion. Concepts can be adapted, content is best developed to reflect the individuality of the person using it, unless is used with permission and credit is given to the creator of the content. My rule of thumb is to apply Georgiana Tree West's 8th Commandment of Prosperity, "You Shall Not Seek Something for Nothing". For an affirmative approach consider Prosperity's 8th Affirmation: http://prosperingtimes.com/blog/2007/03/27/affirmation-8-summary/ I think that it is creative to use another person’s concept to create something that is new or adapted to one’s individual expression.

We can use another person's idea and give them credit, but our interpretation of that idea is as valuable as what was imitated. Without self trust we don't accept the value of our inner resources. We can copy people to a point, but when we face real threats we need that trust that connects us to our own inner resources. Living that way day-to-day makes us prepared to face significant challenges. The habit or tendency of copying can weaken our connection to ourselves and that is worse than giving credit where credit is due. valid.
