I think it must be known before entering here, that the content has to be exclusive, own and original (among many other characteristics) however, it seems that we do not all think the same, we do not educate ourselves well; or we didn't understand it correctly. That is why it is important to be informed, put into practice what you have learned, follow the suggestions and start creating! In this sense, let's talk then about plagiarism, let's say one of the greatest sins in many aspects of life and industries of the world. Copying the work of others deliberately implies in my opinion a moral fault, of essence and personality and also legal, among other aspects. ![image.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZMBrhsqjwWfdqQMZGpigHkFZMypJUQnJJ9FGKkcPxLzc/image.png) _{Image Taken from the Original [Author](https://media.gcflearnfree.org/content/55e0780dbae0135431cfdcb9_12_17_2013/AvoidingPlagiarism_Tips.png)} Originality and creativity should be subjective and individual. No matter how many beautiful things we may see or know, I dare to say that it is almost impossible for a person not to have the faculty to transform or develop an idea with his own style. The point is to let the imagination flow and do its job, but yes... we still have to make an effort. It is also true that within the platform there are multiple tasks and / or activities that merit using external sources and resources, but it is necessary to reference each of them to comply with the margins of exclusivity and value the work of others. You have to be clear about it! **How to Cite Sources?:** >One expectation tutors have about your essays is that you will identify and quote from a wide range of writing by other people. This is one way in which you can show that your knowledge of your subject is developing. The ability to select from and engage with a wide range of materials also shows that you are developing skills in argument and research.

It is nice that we identify ourselves as unique beings in various senses of life.* #### "I have read and understood the Steemit Etiquette on Steemit Community and will do my best to embrace them"
