He Thought I Stole His Framework..
Summary
- Sometimes people may claim you took their ideas. It's essential to stay calm and verify facts before reacting.
- I encountered a person who thought I stole the "closer framework" from him. Instead of engaging in negativity, I verified my timeline and confirmed I had been using it longer.
- Even if someone claims ownership of an idea, it's important to remember that concepts can't be patented unless legally protected. Focus on improving and spreading your version.
- If someone accuses you of copying, concentrate on doing your work better. If your version is superior, people will recognize it.
- The key takeaway is not to worry about who created something first, but who executes it better. Excellence speaks for itself.

How To Take Action
I would suggest implementing a mindset shift when someone claims you’ve copied their idea. Instead of getting upset, just verify the facts. Check your timelines and see who actually came up with it first. This helps keep communication clear and calm.
A good way of doing your work better is by always focusing on improving your processes. Continuously enhance your version so it stands out. Excellence in what you do will naturally attract attention and recognition.
Remember, ideas can't be owned unless they’re legally protected. It’s pointless to stress about who thought of something first. The real focus should be on executing your idea better than anyone else. Your version should be so good that it speaks for itself.
If someone accuses you of copying, just concentrate on making your version the best it can be. The real competition is about who does it better, not who did it first. Keep your head down and let the quality of your work be your response.
In summary, stay calm, improve your version, and focus on executing your ideas better than anyone else. Excellence and quality will always make your work stand out.
