     Often  we  try  to duplicate or copy  other  people's
behavior and relationships.   We may want what we think we
see  that  others have---and try to get what they have  by
trying  to copy what we think they have done to  get  what
they  have.   We may try to copy their attitudes,  ideals,
values,   goals,  formulas,  etc.    Yet,  often we do not
thereby get what we expect to get.

     Too often we neglect to give due consideration to the
essential  differences which exist between us and  others.
We try too hard to be alike, to pretend that we are alike;
or act like we should be alike.

     If  in  the beginning we are not  alike---doing  what
others  have  done will not bring like results.     It  is
dishonest to pretend that we are identical and that we can
get  identical  results by trying to engage  in  identical
kinds  of  behaviors.     Conformity is not  an  effective
strategy for getting like results.
