Xerox was invented to copy a document or paper and can be disseminated it without having the trouble to give attribute to the owner of the paper. Once it xeroxed, that's it! Everything is fine and normal as it was before. But how about a person copying an article even if it is yours or you have just copied it from the other site. Will there be a consequence after you copied it and paste in into your article? Plagiarism is like xerox, problem is, xerox is a machine and can't be prosecuted about its action, because its function is only to be copied the document or paper without letting know of the owner of the article (the person who will use it should have asked a consent to xerox his/her article), that's the function of xerox, nothing more, nothing less.The person who copied it like xerox is culpable of his action, because he is very aware who the writer or the publisher of that particular article. That's why be careful with your judgement, once you made the fatal decision to copy your own or others without giving a consent to the person who you want to copy or who created it without reference(s) or source(s) you are in deep trouble for sure!
Now, since Steemit has its own sweeping tools for those who are absurd by doing things which is not good in the first place. Follow a simple rule and we will not be in trouble. There are tons of subject, topic to write. Just follow your instinct, let your creative juices do the talking (in your head), it will give a boost to your mood when you do a little exercise like walking, talking to a friend, not gossiping, to set a mood. Maybe two minutes or so, you'll be surprised how brain works.
There's nothing harm done when we follow rules, it means that we have an understanding how this site works. As a matter of fact, since we all write here. We know this very simple rules that we need not an expert or a senior writer to understand it! Just keep on writing THE RIGHT WAY, have it properly recognize who wrote the article, or lifting an excerpt from the book, you'll be in good vibes!
